Carson Dermatology Associates

Today was my second time visiting this practice and both times have been good experiences. I will go back here without a second thought. They are honest and very affordable. I will recommend to my family and friends. Thanks again.

First off, kudos to Carson Dermatology for only a 2 week wait for an appointment (a miracle considering most dermatologists have at least a 3 month wait list)! I went in for a mole check and acne evaluation today. The front office staff were very friendly and efficient. The girl who took me to the back was very friendly, as well. This was my first time seeing Dr. Tack, and my first impressions of him were very positive. He was genuinely friendly, pleasant, even cracked a joke or two, and definitely put me at ease. He was patient in listening to my concerns and suggested several treatment options, never pushing any expensive new drugs or skincare treatments (as several other derm offices I’ve been to have done), and really thinking about my particular situation in what he thought would be best for me. Such a wonderful visit, and I’m so glad I have found Dr. Tack!

I had a fairly decent visit. Skin cancer on my ear. Dr. Tac was very professional and made me feel at ease. No one wants to get treated for skin cancer but it wasn’t too bad. Had to wait for biopsies durning my surgery, but all dermatologists do this same thing.

At this time one star. My appointment is at 2:30, it is 3:22. I’ve been sitting in the room for about 20 mins. I’m going to get dressed and go.
Hated to leave, but I had to get back to work. Love Dr. Ruth Adams, however my time is just as important as theirs.

Still playing phone tag with the Billing department. Who isn’t in their office at 10 AM on a MONDAY morning!!! I’ve been trying to get ahold of someone since last week. Plus when I went to my appointment my DR was very scatter brained, all over the place, couldn’t sit still, wouldn’t let go of my arm while talking to me even though he had aleady examined it enough and decided what was wrong (Eczema.) Could have sworn he was on speed, guy couldn’t sit still for two seconds. made me feel uncomfortable. Plus the graphic pics on the screen in the waiting room, this girl and I both looked at eachother like OMG that was disturbing.

I waited for 25 minutes after my appointment time, I was told Dr. Tack was running late. I asked at 45 minutes past my appointment time, I was told they weren’t sure when I could get in. I drove from Tahoe City to get to my appointment, they were unwilling to help me see another doctor and they could not assure me that my next appointment, the same thing might happen. I wasted 3.5 hours of my day, driving there, waiting, no doctor to see, drove home, after waiting 6 weeks for the appointment. Don’t bother going.

I love going to this place and who really likes, let alone loves going to any doctor. I’m 53 and starting to pay the price for lots of time in the sun when I was younger. Dr. Tack and Jenny are fantastic. They know their profession and are fun people to boot. The young ladies in the front office run an efficient operation. Patients get in, see the doctors and get on their way.
I don’t look forward to the procedures I’m going thru, but I know I’m very well taken care of and in very good hands!
