Just noticed Dr. Shirley was sitting here with a 1-star rating and I couldn't let that sit. My…read morefamily has seen Dr. Shirley Jean-Baptiste for years now and we are very happy with her. 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.

I made an appointment over a month ago for tomorrow. This dermatologist was listed as belonging to…read moreadvocate. Got a call from the medical assistant the day before my appointment to let me know the doctor doesn't belong to Advocate anymore. The assistant said, "I'm so sorry, we have another doctor in Oak Lawn." This has me pssst off because I was so looking forward to seeing her and now at the last minute I have to start all over again!!

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.

My consultation experience with Mary Kate Mineman was fantastic. The wait was minimal to get into…read morethe exam room. The nurse/medical assistant was a very friendly professional male (sorry, I didn't catch your name). Mary Kate did a full body check and then discussed her findings and my options. I was initially referred for a facial mole that had begun to change. Mary Kate also found a couple of other suspicious moles, and she was able to remove all 3 during my initial visit which was an awesome time saver. 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.
