Dr. Giblin himself is fine. The office manager there is rude, unfriendly and flat out the worst I have ever dealt with. The wait is usually 20 min so it seems a bit long. I left a voicemail as they requested to set up an appointment and never heard back. Seems to me that the office personnel are the big problem. I do not recommend the practice.

Great doctor, but something needs to change in the front office. Huge wait every time. You always get an apology, but they never address the problem. Do yourself a favor and show up at least 30 min late.

The office is very outdated and the staff (one of the managers?) in particular was speaking very loudly and rudely to and then about, a patient. (HIPPA anyone?). The wait is tremendous, but Dr. Giblin spends a great deal of time with you, and though a bit odd, has a good bedside manner with children.
However, I do not recommend the practice based on their shady billing practices. I only took my child here once, and they are attempting to bill me, and send me to a collections agency, for a second visit where I did not even take my child, which has been substantiated.
I will seek to file a formal grievance with the state medical board as well as the state’s attorney general for this appalling behavior!
Beware! It just isn’t worth the headache and there are many pediatric dermatologists in the area…

Recently started seeing Dr. Giblin for acne problems and a old scar. Ive seen countless of dermatologists in Virginia for the same issues but have never been seen by someone as thorough and caring as dr.giblin. Most dermatologists are usually in a rush to see the next patient and aren’t very thorough. However, dr. giblin takes his time to thoroughly explain everything in detail and addresses all my questions/​concerns.
Dr.giblin and his assistants all have excellent bedside manner and are very courteous! Even when I move back to Virginia in a few months I’ll definitely be coming back to dr. giblin when I need a dermatologist!

I saw Dr. Giblin today for the first time and felt compelled to write how wonderful my experience was. He had a wonderful «bedside» manner, and I really feel like he took the time to explain everything to me, and to make sure I understood what the treatment plan was going to be. He truly seemed to care. His staff was courteous and polite, and I was seen on time. The only reason I’m not giving five stars is because his office doesn’t take credit cards. I’ve found my dermatologist!

I have had a lot of skin related issues in the past year. I feel very lucky that I have had Dr. Giblin to take care of me and make sure that I stay healthy.
Dr. Giblin is really awesome. Just before I moved to Maryland I was diagnosed with early stage melanoma. Yeah, the kind of skin cancer that can actually kill you. It was pretty scary and my dermatologist operated on me 1 week before I moved across the country. Needless to say, I was going to need a new dermatologist to remove my stitches and monitor me right away. I was so glad that my California dermatologist was able to refer me to who he said was a «great dermatologist in the DC area» — Dr. Giblin.
I saw Dr Gibiln soon after I arrived in Maryland and he removed my stitches and talked to me about ongoing monitoring. He seemed very competent and nice and seemed to really care about my health.
After that my husband started seeing him since he has eczema and he was really great with him too. Both of us have had to see him for other conditions in the subsequent months (me for a staph infection which he took very seriously and took incredibly good care of and my husband for shingles which he also promptly got him on the correct medication so that it would not get more serious). I have also had to call Dr. Giblin on a holiday for advice when no other doctor would answer their phone. It is pretty awesome when a well respected doctor will take the time to call you back and make sure everything is ok and refer you to where you need to go.
I am so thankful for Dr. Giblin’s help and expertise.

I visited this doctor because I had an ingrown hair in my face. He mis-​diagnosed it as a scar, and gave me a prescription for antibiotics. 4 months later I pulled a 6 inch ingrown whisker out of my cheek. To make matters worse I called the office to get a refill on the prescription (because the ingrown hair would get infected). 72 hours later the pharmacy still had no response from the office. When I would call the receptionist would not help me in any way.
Also they only take co-​pay in the form of check or cash.
