Dr. Kramer has a kind bed side manner and listened to my teen daughter and gave her excellent advice on taking care of her skin and getting her face cleared up from acne. My husbands issues were also resolved with eczema on his arms. She is a warm person who exudes compassion and kindness. It is my understanding that she is heavily involved in community service and mission trips as well, which means a lot to me. Her office staff are professional and polite. They return calls quickly and are top notch. Also very important, SHE DOES NOT KEEP YOU WAITING. She honors your time and doesn't keep you waiting in the waiting room or exam room. This is very important to me as my time is also important. A lot of doctors lose focus on this issue, imo. I highly recommend Dr. Kramer.

I am an expatriate who lives in remote areas without great healthcare, so it is important that…read moreduring my short time in the US I am able to see doctors. I have had a horrible infection that would not go away. Neither my primary care nor urgent care doctors could treat it, so it was vital I get in to a dermatologist. Apparently, there is a major shortage of dermatologists in the area, because I could not get an appointment with anyone in a 50 mile radius, despite calling at least 20 clinics and doctors. I was near tears when I called the Peninsula Skin clinic with Dr. Rasmussen, and found out that they, like everyone else, have a long waiting list. Melissa at the front desk must have heard the desperation in my voice, because she worked with me to find a solution and a time to come in. After my calling all those clinics, she was the first person who showed some concern and empathy. This caring attitude was present with all the staff during my appointment. The person who actually treated me was a Physician's assistant, Bill Bies. He understood that I needed prompt treatment to address all possible issues, along with taking samples and setting up a follow up appointment. After struggling with this infection for so long, it was a relief to find competent and professional care combined with empathy.

The office is newly updated with a beautiful reception room and lots of current equipment. It was easy to get an appointment scheduled and they were willing to bill my insurance for annual exam. The front office staff was welcoming and I filled out the new paperwork and probably only waited 10 minutes or so before I was taken back to the exam operatory. The operatories are also new with a clean white interior design that give it both a modern look as well as the feel of sterility you want in a physician's office. Dr. Kim was very professional and answered my questions. For the pigmentation she recommended a laser procedure but acknowledged its shortcomings that the pigmentation would likely return due to sun exposure and my genetics. I appreciated her discussing the likelihood of recurrence considering the laser treatment was costly. They have a lot of skin products that were pushed towards the end of the appointment which I wasn't a fan of. Other than that, I felt the office did a good job of reviewing my options and everyone was pleasant and professional.

I called ahead to be sure Dr. Kim was familiar with Sculpra. Even though I was assured that she had…read moredone many applications, I should have known better when she was mixing it as I was led to the room. I knew at the very least it should be mixed at the least 2 days in advance. I continued to have the treatments. The only change was that I ended up with several visible nodules that are still visible 30 months later. Stupidly trusting, I paid over $10,000 to have other, often painful, usless procedures performed. Dr. Kim has a sweet personality but she is inexperienced. As a further note. I had Sculptra injected years back, by a physician in Philadelphia, with amazing results! Do not waste your money here!

My first visit to the Aberdeen location was very positive. I had an infected cyst, and they got me…read morein quickly. Unfortunately, my experience declined after that. I have an extensive history of melanoma, squamous cell carcinoma, basal cell carcinoma, recurrent cysts, psoriasis, and rosacea. My longtime dermatologist in another state sent my records more than once, but I was told they had not been reviewed. Because of my skin cancer history, I expected a thorough skin examination that did not happen. After returning to my longtime dermatologist, three areas I was concerned about were removed and one diagnosed as skin cancer. I also explained that I had previously experienced a severe reaction to a topical chemotherapy cream. A compounded version was still prescribed, but my longtime dermatologist advised me not to use it and continued my blue light treatments instead. The biggest frustration was communication. Calls repeatedly went to voicemail, return calls often came much later, and the cycle continued for weeks. My patient portal and online scheduling also stopped working, and multiple reset attempts were unsuccessful. To add to my frustration, I recently received a confusing bill that I have been unable to discuss because the billing department also goes to voicemail. I genuinely hoped to establish dermatology care closer to home. However, with my history of melanoma and multiple other skin cancers, communication, continuity of care, and confidence in my provider are essential. Although it requires a 3 1/2-hour drive each way every three months, I chose to return to the dermatology team in Oregon that has successfully managed my care for many years.

Received a voice mail at 9:13 telling me that they had canceled the appointment. I didn't find out that the appointment was cancelled until I was in the office and was told by the staff that my appointment was canceled because the referral from the VA has expired. I specifically remember at my initial appointment when Todd Williams mentioned that he wanted me back in 6 months to recheck the area on my back that he did a biopsy on, that I would probably need a new referral. He told me then that it wasn't necessary, that they would take care of that. What a colossal screw up and a waste of 2 hours of my time, not to mention the fuel expended on the 50 mile round trip.

I wasn't expecting much, especially since my dermatologist had told me that I was "already receiving the best skin care treatments" at her office. Wendy definitely proved her wrong. Right from the start, Wendy truly listened to my struggles with acne and she was very caring and empathic toward my situation since she has had her own skin battles in the past. She educated me on how to treat my acne problem with simple lifestyle and dietary changes. She also offered me personalized skin products that, although not cheap, are definitely affordable and less expensive than anything else I had received from dermatologists prescriptions. Within just a couple months, my skin was better than it had been since elementary school and it has only improved in the past two years with her products. Now, I barely break out and my skin has never been healthier. However, I cannot give this business 5 stars despite my incredible skin transformation. A little over a year ago, Wendy decided to hand off her older patients to a new esthetician so that she could accept more new clients. While her other estheticians are also highly trained and professional, I do not receive the same education and expertise as I did from Wendy. I would still recommend this place to anyone with stubborn acne troubles, but just be warned--if you make the decision to come here, you will be handed off as soon as your initial treatments are done and you no longer will be allowed to schedule an appointment with Wendy.

Questionable business practices verging on shady. Before you schedule anything here, be aware that…read morethey have two separate sides of their business that don't overlap -- a medical side and a cosmetic side. I called to ask for an appointment to get tiny cysts removed (milia, very common). I explained what they were to the receptionist and I've had them removed easily before at another business. They scheduled me with the medical doctor. When I saw her, she immediately said "Oh, I don't treat those." She said there was nothing she could do for me and I had to schedule with the cosmetic side. Mind you -- the last time I had them removed it took literally 1 minute with a dermatologist. Having wasted my time, I asked her casually about my skin and she gave me some quick advice (2 minutes total). I had to make a free consultation with the cosmetic side (days later). Scheduled an appointment to get them removed for more than $150. Surprise! I find they billed me for the wasted medical appointment for more than $140. What a joke! They refused to comp the appointment even though it was their scheduling fault and were very rude about it, not at all apologetic. If they weren't sure which side to schedule me with, OBVIOUSLY they should have scheduled the free consultation out of respect for my time and money. I bet this is a common occurrence there that they make some good extra money off of -- bad business practices and very unprofessional! Maybe even crooked. They need to sort their business out.
