Wow! Dr. Evers is amazing! I drove from Leander to Georgetown because I was impressed with this place's website. I liked that Dr. Ever's bio said she enjoyed researching infectious diseases. That sounded so much better than the places around me which seemed to focus on cosmetic stuff. I don't need cosmetic stuff. I needed great medical care--and Dr. Evers really delivered.
I went in for a little mole-looking thing that had grown larger and started itching. She said it looked like basal cell carcinoma and took a biopsy to be sure. She reassured me that this was not the kind that often kills people (that's melanoma), explained how we would treat it depending on the biopsy results, and was kind and wonderful.
AND she might have solved a weird medical problem I've had for the past ten years. She asked about an antibiotic I was taking, so I told her about some other problems I was having. A chronic inflammatory skin condition is one of the problems, so I asked if she thought some of these things could be related--like an autoimmune disease or something. She said she needed to check something, tapped a few keys on her laptop, then wrote down a syndrome for me and told me to ask my doctor about it. I had never heard of this thing! (I don't want to say what it is until I know for sure.) Anyway, I saw my primary care doctor this morning and she was so impressed with Dr. Evers! She said this could very well be what's going on. She's referring me to a rheumatologist. The thing is, I hadn't even told my primary care doctor about the arthritic component of the syndrome Dr. Evers wrote down because I chased a few things down with doctors nine years ago and ended up with nothing that made sense. I quit working outside the home because it was too painful; we moved into a one-story house so I would stop falling down the stairs; I stopped doing a lot of the things I enjoy. I just accepted that this was the way things were and didn't bug my new primary care doctor about them. I know I'm rattling on, but this is MAJOR. Just having answers would be fantastic. I can't even imagine how great it would be to treat this stuff.
It's entirely possible that my life might be changed by seeing Dr. Evers! If you are worried about anything to do with the skin, you need to make an appointment here! read more
