"I have never done one of these reviews before but I was so disappointed with this dermatologist. In my short time as a patient with this office, the staff told me I didn’t return phone calls when I had, they frequently shut off phones well before the scheduled times, and they assign you your next appt time instead of asking what works best for you."

Vitals

"I've been a patient of Dr.Whelan's for almost a year and have had nothing but great care from her and her staff. Dr.Whelan has given me thoughtful and comprehensive advice about my concerns and I've been happy with the results. Highly recommend this practice."
