Mystic Valley Dermatology Associates PC

I have rosacea. Its awful. And I used to tan in tanning beds.
IM a dermatological nightmare.
Victoria (the NP) is amazing– she has helped me calm my red acne laiden skin and removed a few questionable lesions from my back .
I use their smaller Winchester office and love going there-​well as much as you can when lidocaine and epinephrine are being injected into your skin so you dont die of skin cancer.

TERRRRIIIIBBLLLEEEE !
I’ve gone to Dr. Fenner, and she’s just horrible. My first visit, I told her that nothing really worked for my acne and that I wanted to get on Accutane. She objected my request and prescribed me something i didn’t want. I almost DIED with the medication and ended up in the ER. I went back to her and once again asked for the accutane, and she told me I had to take a blood test. After taking that blood test, I had to wait a month before I took another blood test to start on the medication. After that month, I went to her to get the accutane. and did she give it to me? NOOOO ! she wanted me to wait another month because I missed 2 days of my birth control. I think she purchased her medical license because there’s no way in hell she could have earned it. If you happen to go to Mystic Valley Dermatology, I hope you don’t get her as a doctor. She has a big head, but there’s nothing in it as far as knowledge and common sense.

I’ve been here twice, once a few years ago and once recently. They will become my dermatologist of need if I ever need them again. I guess I’ll have to tell you why I went? Haha awkward.
So the first time I had an itchy spot that over the counter cream wasn’t helping with so they hooked it up with a stronger prescription cream and it worked.
I came back recently to get some spots on my skin looked at and ended up getting one biopsy in the office. Nice, now take away all my blemishes please! But she could only take one dammit. So no I don’t have cancer and yeah I’ll probably continue to tan.
I don’t remember the name of the doctor even though sad to say it was just in September. I was suppose to get one lady and was given another. She was young looking and soft spoken sort of. I have a crazy way about me where I talk about things that don’t matter so she was probably confused. Like I hated a certain word and wouldn’t let her or the nurse use it.
The biopsy legit took not even 3 minutes from novocain to band-​aid. Now I just have a cute little battle scar which doesn’t bother me at all. Great trip there, smiles on this end.
Yeah I sound like a weirdo, I would review a doctors office like this haha.
Oh! Getting in there you want to go to the third floor, the stairs are weird you can walk up the first set but the second goes missing so the elevator is the best route. Once your off the elevator do a right/​straight walk down the hall and around the corner and ta-​da. The lobby is large, lots of seating. I’m not sure of how many doctors actually practice at the facility location.
There is free garage parking as well.
Co-​payment due at time of visit.

I meet with Nicole (NP) once a month for my skin needs and she is delightful. She’s friendly and professional and remembers me. (How rare is that in health care these days?) I appreciate the options she’s always willing to provide — but her recommendations are sound and I trust her implicitly. She herself gets a 5-​star; my 3-​star rating is for the clinic as a whole.
I find the front office staff somewhat unfriendly and inefficient. I’m sure they’re lovely people, but I’ve been forced to wait to check-​in while they finish a story with a coworker. I used to work front-​office at a doctor’s office so I understand the challenges; my botheration has nothing to do with the ins and outs of working the position and the overall lack of putting the customer first. I refuse to schedule follow-​up appointments onsite; it’s much for efficient to do it on the phone.
That rant being stated (apparently I had to get that off my chest!), the clinic is nicely located right off I-​95, has parking, and takes my insurance. Totally worth frequenting if you need a dermatologist. (And can get past the front door!)
