Normally I would wait and see how I like a provider over time before writing a review, but I have…read morehad such a great experience with this one already so far, that I just had to Yelp about it. First, let me say that I have seen a few dermatologists in the past 6 years trying to resolve a frustrating skin condition. It has been agonizing paying for and trying dozens of different prescriptions to no avail. And trying to find a good Dermatologist who will listen seemed like a losing battle after reading all the Yelp reviews! A lot of them seem to be just in it for the cosmetic side, which brings them the most money. That was the experience I had with the last one I saw, and I had just about given up when I read about North Metro on Yelp. I decided to send an email to this provider and 5 others asking about how they treat my condition. 4 out of 6 emails garnered some type of lame sales pitch or form letter response. Only this provider and one other (Pinnacle) actually showed concern and reached out and asked questions, asking what I had tried and seemed genuinely wanting to help. I was so impressed with Lindsey, the medical assistant who emailed and talked to me, that I decided to schedule an appointment with Dr. Long. The jury is still out as far as my skin condition goes, but after my appointment yesterday, I have a new treatment plan that I felt part of designing, and most importantly I have HOPE for the first time in a long time. I even thought of more questions after I left, and was able to get them answered by email. I will be updating this review as treatment progresses.

I'll try to make this as short as possible. I bought a syringe of lip filler. At my first…read moreappointment I wanted to use the entire syringe but was told she suggested to use conservatively and that it was good until September. January I made an appointment to use to remaining filler and after consulting with Corrine and verifying the expiration date decided to wait until Spring. I made an appointment in April and when I arrived the technician did not do injectables. I verified when the expiration was and was told again September. For all of these appointments I drive 20 minutes each way to not be serviced. On August 22 I made an appointment online for August 30th. This time I called to verify that the appointment time and provider was correct so that I could be serviced. After all this was the 3rd time I had tried to use the remaining half syringe. I received a call back stating it expired that previous Friday August 19th. I made several attempts to use the service I purchased within the time frame they provided me. Each time I asked I was told it expired September. So I ultimately paid over $600 for half a syringe of filler. I had communication via email with Corrine. I asked if I could please be in contact with Jocelyn. Corrine said she and Jocelyn would be calling me the following week during a specific day and certain timeframe. The reason I asked to speak to Jocelyn was because the first time I received injections at her Spa I had a bump/ bubble of filler protruding from lip from improper injecting. My next appointment she asked why I didn't call the office. I said I didn't want to be a pain and figured it would go away. She proceeded to tell me that she insisted I call if I ever have problems again. I made sure to make myself available during my workday and never received a call from Jocelyn or anybody. I ended up finding another medspa closer to home and was refreshing to find prices much much more affordable and a higher quality of care.

After check-in in I was immediately offered a beverage, which offered very welcoming vibes. The clinic is beautiful and clean. Karisa called me from the waiting area to the procedure room. Karisa is such a delight. She took before pictures and asked a few questions before nurse Lindsey came in. Lindsey blew me away. First of all, she has incredible eye contact, says funny things, and is very educated on anatomy (she speaks intelligently it makes me feel secure, and develops great trust quickly). Lindsey took the time to listen to my concerns and educated me on the process, and when performing the procedure she had such a calm presence and demeanor and made for a more relaxing situation. Lindey helped with lip filler, cheek filler, and Botox. You could tell that patience and comfort are one of Lindsey's top priorities along with precision. I'm so happy my lips didn't bruise! My results thus far are amazing but still healing. The front office staff Dawn and Nick were a pleasure to interact with too. Nick did a great job with offering me a program I could sign up for and help same money at my next visits.
