12/11/2019 - So I chose this place based on the first available appointment that I could get…read morebecause literally overnight my right hand went numb and I started having contraction like pains in my wrist and hand and that has been continuing on for a month and a half now and I own two businesses one being a business that does hair and make up for wedding parties every single Friday Saturday and Sunday and of course I am right handed so having a numb hand that is in pain can literally ruin my career so before the appointment I went ahead and got an MRI done by a doctor at the immediate care center and was given prednisone steroid which did not help. On my way to my appointment with Dr.Shuh my appointment time was 10 AM on Wednesday, December 11, 2019 I live five minutes away it was about 9:45 AM and I realized I had forgotten my MRI disk so I called the place to let them know I possibly might be running one or two minutes late and on that morning there was black ice everywhere so when I called to let them know which I probably should not have had to but I did the receptionist or lady who answers the phone said "well can you hurry up? The doctors got to get going here " that was the first red flag I went to the appointment got there right on time and that is when the most awful Doctor came in who blatantly said to me "stop stop stop... You are all over the place you don't know if you're coming or going I'm asking you questions and you're answering them yes and no I'm asking you if this hurts and you are answering them yes and no there is no way that I'm going to be able to rely on any test that I give you because you don't make any sense why did you get this MRI done of your wrist? Now it's showing me a whole set of different problems that are not even related to your issue, plus I am a hand specialist not a wrist doctor, you need to go see your REAL doctor Because he knows you better and if this happened to your left hand five years ago then they should know exactly what's going on with your right hand I would've never ordered you an MRI I would've ordered you an EMG who ordered this test??? Sorry I can't help you" But here's the kicker... I was trying to explain to him that my mother has lupus Crohn's rheumatoid arthritis fibromyalgia and poly myalgia which are all auto immune disorders that I had just gotten tested for a few days ago and was waiting for the results he said "I don't care about your mother I never asked you if she had any of those things we are not talking about your mother we are talking about you" WOW. Then you know what his advice was for me?... "Maybe you should try to take it easy and working " WHAT?! OK I just won't go to work... I also won't take care of my three-year-old daughter that I raise on my own?!? I left there in tears I have never in my life been treated so poorly by a person nonetheless a Doctor Who swore an oath to help his patience I am floored I don't ever write reviews.. in fact, I always get reviews written about me and my business so I get it but I'm sorry if I can save at least one person from misery then that will be my pay it forward! DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE THEY ARE AWFUL!!!!!! 12/12/2019- I went to my "real doctor "the very next day they did an MRI and x-ray and an EMG right on the spot gave me a Cortizone shot told me I had horrible carpal tunnel tendinitis a ganglion cyst and I have a bone dislocated in my wrist that is making another bone pop out so, my fault I should have never gone to this doctor in the first place I thought since I was in so much pain and this was the first place to have an available appointment at a "hand specialist "who says he only does hands and does not do wrists... I find it a little odd since it's attached to the same body part upper extremity!! It was like night and day going to my doctor versus going here again do not go to this place save yourself some trouble and go to the doctor Anton Fakhouri at Mid-America orthopedics In Makena or Payless 1/24/2020- I went in to have carpal tunnel surgery and my REAL doctor ended up having to do carpal tunnel surgery and arthroscopy , shortening of my Ulna bone and cartilage repair to my wrist and I am in a cast up to my shoulder for the next three weeks. This surgeon and it's staff are simply amazing I cannot wait to give them their review I will not waste the space on here.

She thoroughly explained the procedure, answered all of my questions, discussed after care, provided some gauze and petroleum jelly for the road, and provided a sheet of aftercare instructions showing what to expect in the coming days. So far, everything is healing as expected. I will continue to seek treatment here and would recommend Mary Kate without hesitation.

I had CO2 laser here in March 2025 and the care of service was terrible and the results are worse…read more I went in for my consult with Dr. Soleymani and described in great detail what I hoped to get out of the procedure/improvements to my face/skin. Dr. explained there was a very aggressive option and one that was milder. It was agreed upon by both of us that I would have the more aggressive procedure which I was totally fine with. They gave me several pages of instructions, what to expect from the procedure, aftercare and products I needed to purchase (not from them but from Target/Amazon, etc.) The Dr. made a point of saying they always call several times to check on the patient between the procedure and the follow-up appointment, he'd provide a cell number so I could reach out at anytime if I had issues between appointments, blah blah blah. I made the appointment for the extra AGGRESSIVE laser and was charged and paid in full for that procedure. I studied the instructions intently, stocked up on the required products, and eagerly awaited my appointment. Day of the nurse numbed up my face, the Dr. comes in and asks, "so what are we doing? We're not doing the full blown (something like that) CO2 are we? I don't think you need to go that deep...how much did you pay?" I'm thinking, 'are you KIDDING me??' 'How much did I pay?' For real? And now you aren't going to perform the procedure that was originally planned?? I protested and reminded him that yes indeed the full blown procedure was what "we" were doing, however, by this point my face was all numb and I had a numbing injection, not to mention a Valium (that they provided, I didn't just pop one in before I got there) that made speaking difficult and debating impossible. Long story short, I didn't receive the extreme, aggressive laser treatment (that I paid for). I never received a phone call or any communication from the office after the procedure between appointments, and the whole experience was so disappointing and frustrating. Never heard from them again. After several months of healing my skin looked worse than before I ever had the procedure and I ended up going to another dermatologist that prescribed Tretinoin and hydroquinone to help with the mess the laser left behind. Now 9 months later the topicals have made an improvement but my skin still looks worse than before the laser treatment. I wasted 3k and didn't even get what I originally paid for, it's so frustrating. I do want to mention I had fractional laser treatment about 14 years ago and the results were outstanding! My skin was gorgeous for a few years!! I thought the CO2 would be more appropriate this time around because I am that much older and felt, based on my research, would be better for my older skin. The Dr. did ask me at the end of the CO2 if I'd ever had micro needling (or whatever it's called) and that I should consider that. WHAT? You're advising me of this now??? This practice might be great for all other dermatological procedures, but I wouldn't use them for cosmetic procedures. Based on other reviews from patients that have addressed issues with this practice resulting in no resolve, I'm not going to bother trying to get mine. Rather, I'm going to write a letter of complaint to the state board just so it's on record and that's probably the best I can expect.

I don't see Dr. Mandrea. I see his physician assistant, Ms. Bernice Johnson. She is absolutely…read moreadorable and very sweet. She NEVER rushes me, and really takes time to examine me and answer all of my questions. She has never made me feel dumb, and has never made me feel like I was wasting her time. Her assistants are also very nice. Even though they are always busy, she and her assistants are always in a good/cheerful mood and can usually crack a joke or two. So, I would give her a 10 if I could!! With that being said, the front desk staff is 50/50. When I first started going (back in March 2012) the front desk staff was terrible! They were so rude. They wouldn't even acknowledge I was there or look up from whatever they were doing. Then while I was in the waiting room, they would discuss some inappropriate things...and everyone in the waiting room could hear them. However, on my last two visits, I noticed there was a different lady at the front desk. She was much better :) Wait time in the waiting room really depends on the day. Sometimes they get me in right on time. But I have had to wait 15-20 min before. They have a TV and a water cooler, so it's not terrible. Be advised, it will take a while to get an appointment. Don't think you can get one same day, or even the same week. They are a busy office. I've been to other dermatologists in the past, and Ms. Bernice Johnson is the best. She's worth the wait. I tell everyone about her and recommend her to all of my friends and family.

I see Dr. Mandrea for eczema and acne. Neither one is a life threatening condition, but the eczema…read moreis painful, and the acne is upsetting, especially the scars the years of suffering from it have left on my skin. Unlike other dermatologists I've seen, Dr. Mandrea seemed to understand that I was there to get these conditions treated, not to be told that they weren't life threatening. I'm still going through treatment for both, but at each appointment the doctor has looked to see how I'm doing and adjusted my routine based on what is and isn't working. Wait time has been about average, besides one time when he was running late coming from another location. The front room staff let everyone know and gave us an ETA so we could run out to take care of what we needed to in the surrounding area.

She is very good at what she does and has great compassion for her patients. Dr. Shirley has been with this practice for a number of years now, and that has been problematic for some people. The practice was started by Dr. Cheuk Yung years ago, and he took on new professionals as the business grew ... this is how Dr. Shirley joined the team. Since that time, I believe the practice has been sold to a corporate group - much like many medical practices have done recently. It used to be called Southwest Dermatology and it is now called Pinnacle dermatology. So what corporate ownership means is that Dr. Shirley is now an employee of that corporate group, and is sometimes subject to that corporate group doing the scheduling and the like. You will still get the safe and sure hands of Dr. Shirley, but may sometimes have to put up with corporate management in scheduling and returning phone calls. Put up with it, as Dr. Shirley is worth the wait.
