I had a 1:45 PM appointment with Brenna Ewing at Johnson County Dermatology today, and my…read moreexperience was one of the most frustrating I've had with any medical office. I left more than 30 minutes early for my appointment but got caught in a major traffic accident backup on the highway. As a courtesy, I called the office five minutes before my scheduled appointment to explain the situation and let them know I would arrive by 2:00 PM or sooner. I arrived at exactly 2:00 PM and immediately went inside to check in. Only then was I informed that I was in the wrong building and needed to go across the parking lot to another office. After going to the correct location and checking in, I sat for several minutes before being told that Brenna Ewing would not see me because of a strict 15-minute late policy. What makes this especially frustrating is that I was physically on-site at 2:00 PM and was delayed further because the staff initially directed me to the wrong building. I explained the situation and even asked if she could simply take a quick look at the spot on my face that I had come in to have examined. The answer was no. I was told I could wait an hour and hope to be worked in or simply reschedule. This is a perfect example of the double standard that exists in healthcare today. If a provider runs 15, 30, or even 60 minutes behind schedule, patients are expected to wait without complaint. But when a patient encounters circumstances beyond their control, calls ahead as a courtesy, arrives on the property within the allotted time, and is then delayed further by office confusion, there is apparently zero flexibility or consideration. Customer service, common sense, and basic courtesy were completely absent. I understand offices need scheduling policies, but there should also be room for professional judgment and compassion. Instead, I felt treated like a number rather than a patient. Very disappointing experience, and unfortunately it left me with little confidence in either the patient-first philosophy or professionalism of this practice.

I was a new patient here during the COVID-19 pandemic. At the time of my appointment, masks were…read moremandated and required in all of Kansas, where this office is located. When I arrived, no one was wearing masks. I was told that they are exempt from wearing them, and was then lectured about the death rate of COVID, that masks are completely ineffective, and that I can go ahead and take my mask off. When I explained that I have differing beliefs and good reason to wear one, I was again belittled. You could tell they really didn't want me to wear it, which is not their choice to make. Already blindsided about the masks, I then asked if the doctor could keep 6 feet from me in the room. A reasonable compromise, right? She told me we could discuss it once we got to the room. I wasn't sure why we couldn't discuss it in the lobby right then, but I later realized it was because she had no plans to keep her distance from me. In the room, she sat very close to me despite me having already requested her not to. I understand if someone is exempt from mask wearing. I get it. My issue here is that they did not make this clear to me as a new patient. Furthermore, the doctor lectured me about masks and suggested I take mine off. And finally, they did not attempt to keep distance. I felt very uncomfortable. This office should make it clear they are exempt, so their patients can then make a choice that is best for their personal health. They should also allow patients to wear masks if they choose, without making them feel wrong for wearing them. I am very disappointed with the professionalism of Midwest Dermatology. If you want to feel that your voice is valued and heard as a patient, do not choose this office.

Not good to get an additional 'charge' for bring up a matter during your annual physical! Then I nsisting that you come in, just to get refills, and you begin to realize you have the wrong doctor. WORST OF ALL - I called with chest pains (thinking I had Covid issues I was obeying CDC instructions to call my GP first) only to find they were ALL on Spring Break...! I couldn't get access to any clinician (couldn't get past the officious receptionist). So I hung up & called a NP in the family, and was advised to get into the ER immediately. Bottom line - 3 weeks now since my heart attack and still NOTHING from my doctor or anyone in the practice. Pretty appalling. I am done with trusting my health to this place and I would never recommend anyone go there. But hey - maybe they just hated me...?

Moreover, note that if you owe them anything, whether the amount is correct or not, it is impossible to rectify and this outfit blocks you from making an appointment for a return visit. By now I have spent five hours with various members of the administration of this outfit. To no avail. At one point I was even aided by an extremely helpful person from United Health Care (my carrier), and she, too, was rebuffed. As the matter now stands, I cannot go back for a checkup and it is absolutely clear that what United says that I owe and what this outfit claims, are two completely different figures. My only advice to anyone need dermatology attention is--avoid US dermatology partners at all cost.
