I'm fairly certain I've seen pretty much all of the dermatologists here over the years, since I was a very young child, for my severe skin conditions. I've seen Dr. Solomon, Kimberly(sp?), Dr. Dubin(I think his name is), Sarah, and Alyssa... The honest truth of dealing with skin conditions is that it takes work. Some things that work for you will not work for other people as well. And it's not just moisturizers, creams, etc.... Lots of things can affect your skin. Using very hot water during a shower can be harder on your skin. Using certain shampoos and soaps can be less friendly on your skin. Even diet can affect certain conditions. Drinking alcohol is said to be bad for a number of conditions, for example. Dove gentle soap is generally a good bet. CeraVe and Eucerin are generally good brands. Try to check for manufacturer coupons online / in-store. That's another thing - this office sometimes has coupons for stuff like this, or samples... And that's honestly great they do that. The last time I went in (last week or so), i was also given some coupon cards to use with some prescriptions... although they are probably ultimately given by the manufacturing company for those products, it's still nice. I really want to stress that sometimes things you can use and be given can take a long time to work. It might have a cumulative effect, or it might not be the best one for you. I've honestly given up sometimes on using medicine because I'm not seeing the progress. You just have to stick with it, be patient, and be willing to try new things.

He then showed her the ganglia on his wrist and she didn't have any recommendations for that. What a waste of time and insurance. I used to see Dr. Deliluca at this location but he moved on to a different network. If you want to have any results from your appointment, don't see her. She needs more experience.

Achieving Sustain Healthy Cancer Free Skin with Derick Dermatology…read more A couple years ago I started noticing some concerning facial and semi raised spots on my face. This bothered me and after looking at these spots I decided to ask around and find out where I should seek medical advise. I started by asking some people at my church who I should see. As I was speaking with a few people the about where to go I kept hearing the names like Derick Dermatology as well as other providers specializing facial related medical issues. I inquired about other places and their variety techniques I got a little concern. Some treatment approaches were kind of.......severe.....and frightening. So I kept asking for about 2-3 weeks. As I asked I saw a pattern evolving. A few people stated mentioning Derick Dermatology. I ask why Derick Dermatology and what I heard was they take a very directed approach. They listen and more important they listen to your concerns. They welcome the questions I asked. So when the doctors at Derick Dermatology looked me they quickly took a look and found skin cancer issues and immediately took care of it. I then ask a few what if questions and provided me with good answers Having a healthcare background I appreciated their fact base approach. They also said I could call their Help Desk and get help regarding my questions or getting suggestions. I did and they quickly got connected with a doctor who address my concerns. Then they said they wanted to see me again in 4 months. I came back and they saw more issues and they were removed. I then asked about preventive skin cancer techniques and once again the D. D. doctors introduced me to a layered approach for stopping future skin cancer. Their approach really worked. Some of those outcomes from the layered approach included: 1. Some of the spots got smaller on my face and dried up 2. I stop getting new sun spots on my face 3. My skin tone started changing to the better. I had a old look before D. D. 4. The best news was I was able to have a significantly reduced aged look. Now as I say this I am older guy close to that number I care not to admit, however my looks are much younger. As an example when I ask for my senior citizen discount I have to pull out my ID and proof it that includes places where discounts begin at 60. I was told me I did not even look close to 60. So you can decide to go to another facial issues provider.....or you can get smart and go to Derick Dermatology and address your issues...... changing your life to your desired look and a better way of life.

This place pulled a classic doctor's office bait-and-switch and seemed relatively confident that they'd gotten away with it; I'd scheduled an appointment months in advance with Dr. Solomon as he'd been recommended to me, but when I arrived for my appointment, the doctor who walked into the exam room was Dr. Dubin. He was friendly, but ultimately dismissive of the issue I had come in for, which was a minor and uncomplicated removal, but after looking at it for a few minutes, said we could schedule a future appointment to have it removed. (Really? He couldn't have just done it then and there?) Then he left, as abruptly as he had arrived. I specifically wanted to see Dr. Solomon for this removal, so I asked to speak to a manager, who shrugged apathetically and said Dr. Solomon never worked on the weekends, so I must have known I was scheduling an appointment with Dr. Dubin. They said I could schedule ANOTHER appointment for a SECOND consult with Dr. Solomon, but that I couldn't see him for the removal as he'd never seen me. I asked if I would be billed for a second consult, given that they had not booked me with the doctor I had requested and had been promised at the time of scheduling, and they said yes, I would. I refused, and escalated until a manager finally booked me to come in for a removal with Dr. Solomon. When I came in for this appointment, the nurse made a big show of getting the room ready and laying out the instruments, and in came Dr. Solomon. He obviously had an attitude from the get go, and brusquely inspected the area where the removal was to be done, then demanded to know why he had to remove it. He then left the room, brought Dr. Dubin back with him, and made Dr. Dubin show him exactly why he thought a removal was necessary. His attitude to his colleague was condescending and disrespectful, and Dr. Dubin was visibly uncomfortable at being put on the spot and having his medical judgment questioned in front of a patient. Dr. Dubin made his case and Dr. Solomon immediately shot him down, saying that it was nonsense and that there was no reason to remove it. He then stormed out of the room and the nurse told me I was free to go. I walked out of their office after only five useless minutes in the exam room with absolutely zero resolution to the issue for which I'd originally come. I do not understand why I as the patient was punished for what seemed to be an extremely dysfunctional relationship between providers and their staff. I know for a fact I requested to see Dr. Solomon for my original appointment and that that's who I was told my appointment was with. I don't know why the staff of this office would voluntarily lie just to move patients through the door. I don't blame Dr. Dubin, but it was frustrating to get brushed off on what effectively seemed to be their second rate doctor (considering how poorly Dr. Solomon treated him and how he belittled and outright humiliated him in front of a patient) when I knew exactly what service I wanted and which doctor I wanted to see. Staff was dismissive at all times, and everything management said to me was laced in the condescending tone of, "You're just another dumb patient and you don't know any better." The entire experience with this office was overwhelmingly disappointing and left a bad taste in my mouth. I ended up rescheduling for a consult with Advanced Dermatology in Lincolnshire. Their provider saw me once, was happy to do the removal, and had completed it in less than ten minutes. No follow-up was needed and it healed perfectly.

Most communication is backed up with email reminders and an online portal so you can complete all your paperwork ahead of time so you don't need to get there so early the first time. I had my labs drawn during my first visit and the results were available after one week, viewable through my DPI "portal", and Dr. Newman called me personally to explain them, without my prompting.

I was a long-time patient at this office and have watched firsthand the cliff this practice has jumped off. If you're searching for a reliable primary care doctor near Libertyville or Gurnee, avoid Dr. Peter Puthenveetil at Greenleaf Medical Associates. He no longer prioritizes patient care--just Ozempic, Botox, and the cash flow. The medical staff is robotic, unhelpful, and disengaged. Communication is nonexistent, with exception of a termination letter from their practice. There's no real support or follow-through. It's a disorganized, reactive office that leaves patients chasing basic care. There is no longer any partnership in your health here--just profits over people. Stay far away.
