I had an April 2025 dated appointment confirmed three times. I check in and tell them I'll do the membership pricing for this service. They give me an amount to pay which is $350 over the quote. When asked why, they said It's because my quote was based on "being a patient" and it's been over a year since I've been seen so I'm "not a patient" & the pricing is higher for non patients. They said that even though they hadn't originally told me, the quote expired in February. I remind them I was in there in November & that I received a RX at that time. They would not agree to the original quoted price & I told them what a poor business decision that was & I walked out. So now I'm ACTUALLY not their patient, at my own choice this time. So they'll keep that $50, they need it since they lost my business.

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 originally scheduled a mole check and had one additional question, but was told I couldn't address anything beyond the mole exam during that visit. I ended up making a separate appointment for my other question, which required me to take time off work. The provider saw me for about two minutes (literally) to answer my question, and I was still charged a full visit fee. A medical staff said that didn't seem accurate that I couldn't do both in the same visit. I reached out to the billing department but nothing was resolved. I guess it's my fault for saying I had an additional question when I called to make the appointment. Next time I won't. I was told some providers allow you to ask an additional question or a couple of questions during an appointment, and some don't. I gave two stars because I did genuinely like the providers themselves, but I won't be returning.

Update 12/01/25: 1 had an appointment with a medical tattooist, and she didn't want to touch it…read more She said, it's possible she could make it worse and it wouldn't be permanent. My dermatologist said, lasers, such as excimer, are not guaranteed, not permanent and require ongoing treatments indefinitely. Basically, it would be a life long commitment for a treatment that is not guaranteed. It would be very time consuming going three days a week for an unknown amount of time. Therefore, this is not a viable option. Third, I had a consultation with two plastic surgeons in Plymouth. Initially, they didn't want to touch it because the incisions would cause another problem. I would be swapping one cosmetic problem for another one. Since this was my last resort, the head surgeon agreed to do a little research and reach out to other plastic surgeons for their opinion. He said, the problem is pigment can't be restored, therefore, hypopigmentation can't be treated. I should have gone to him first. At this point, I'm waiting for the plastic surgeon to contact me with a possible solution, if any. Of course, this is the most expensive option with the surgeon's fee, anesthesiologist fee and surgical room fee. I'm looking at thousands of dollars However, if they can fix it, I would find a way to pay for it. Apparently, Stillwater Skin & Spa feel they are being unjustly targeted and reminded other businesses to remain vigilant. With that, if the plastic surgeon is able to fix it, l'll attach a copy of his diagnosis, surgical procedure, all fees and a photo of my face post surgery. Regardless, I will attach a copy of the diagnosis I received from each doctor I consulted with. As l've said more than once, one of those doctors is Stillwater Skin and Spa's medical director. They accused me multiple times of not meeting with them and their medical director. Note, their medical director has been my family physician for 20 years. This should put those accusations to rest. It's very important to me to provide the public updates so this doesn't happen to others. In my opinion, the laser services at Stillwater Skin & Spa should be shut down. The tech that worked on me needs more training before being allowed to perform laser hair removal services. This further proves I'm not out to unjustly target Stillwater Skin & Spa. Nobody should go to this business for laser hair removal. I have no opinion of their other services; laser hair removal was the only treatment I had there. Stillwater Skin & Spa also accused me of threatening to write a review if I wasn't given a refund. This is not true. First of all, they refunded me the portion of my package I did not use. However, they did not refund me for the treatment where I was scarred. The cost for that treatment was $300. I didn't threaten to write a review, I just did it,
