They wanted to try to charge my insurance $291 for a skin cancer check where the only thing done was look at spots. No lab analysis was done of any areas. Oh but my insurance negotiated them down $200. Isnt that nice that my insurance has to have a spine, and these people can be like Cant hurt a fella for trying.Nobody would tell me costs before I went. Then when I called about this bill, they said they cant determine what level is needed before an appointment.

I completely trust the information given to me regarding procedures and products. My experience has been positive and very honest regarding expected outcomes regarding all aspects of my skin care.

These guys are absolute clowns. Paid $178 for my appointment then they sneakily charged me another $173 after lol. Some lady saw me for 5 minutes and didn’t even properly diagnose my problem. So I ended up spending $350 and not getting my problem even remotely fixed. Naturally they wanted me to come back so they could charge me more money and probably not fix my problem again. This place is absolute garbage 10/10 wouldn’t recommend. Im at a much better and much more affordable dermatologist now. The way these guys are allowed to overcharge people for 5 minutes of misdiagnosis is completely disgusting.

My 1st time at this Practice and Dr. Donnelly and her assistant were great. I felt comfortable and Dr. Donnelly answered my questions. I will be back. The office is clean, and the staff are all Professionals that seemed like they want to be there to help people. I would not change a thing about this Practice!

I have seen Dr Donnelly for at least 5 different issues over the past 3 years and every time she has been wonderful. Not only is she patient, but highly thorough. She takes the time to explain her recommendations, the alternatives available, and why she believes the course of treatment selected will be successful.When my skin problem ended up needing biopsies, she called to personally give me the results, even though they were negative. I have never had a physician of any kind do that! My pharmacy had an alert regarding a prescription interaction and I left a voicemail for her nurse to ensure there wouldnt be a problem taking the combination of medications. To my surprise, Dr. Donnelly called me back herself and talked to me about why this happened and why it was safe.I would (and do!) recommend Dr. Donnelly to anyone in search of a dermatologist.

Dr. Negrete and Ellie were fantastic! I felt like I was chatting with a couple of girlfriends about my concerns... Except one of those girlfriends happens to be a doctor and can actually help! I feel like I really understand what I need to do to look out for and prevent serious skin concerns, plus I got some great cosmetic tips for my daily face care routine. Definitely 5 stars!

Review №33

Terrible communication and refusal to be seen. My husband had an appt and I made it clear to the scheduler that he could not wear a mask due to a medical reason. She entered a note in his chart and said it would be visible to staff and that they understood some people couldnt wear them. The website even mentions to let the staff know at your appointment if you are unable to wear a mask. At no point did anyone tell us he needed to provide documentation from a physician that he could not wear one. I made the appointment because he had already tried and they told him he had to wear a mask, but I dont think they understood his issue. Anyway, he gets to the appointment and the staff cannot see the note so he has to explain. He waits in the waiting room. They take him back to an exam room and someone tells him he cannot be seen because he isnt wearing a mask. My husband has panic attacks and anxiety and cannot wear one. Long story short, they turned him away from treatment. He has possible skin cancer on his nose that needs addressed. He spent 15min in their office, in the waiting room and exam room without a mask. But they cannot see him without one? The spot is on his nose so he wouldnt be able to wear a mask for them to examine him anyway. I called and asked to talk to a manager as my husband left the facility. The message and my phone number was relayed and I was told I would get a call back in 10 min. I never received a call. I just wanted to discuss with someone to identify the gaps in communication. Very disappointed and saddened by the experience, especially since my husband needs to be seen. He already had anxiety going to this appointment feeling like people would judge him because he wasnt wearing a mask. Turns out, he was right, unfortunately. How is anyone supposed to get the care they need and deserve when providers cannot look at the patient as a whole?

Front desk staff are horrible. They dont explain things properly and appear confused. They used lidocaine to numb up areas on each side of my eyes, and when I questioned rather or not it would effect my vision, because I drove, they said no. Had to pull over on my way home because my eyes were watering and blurry. Though the doctor was nice, I feel she rushed through the appointment. $175 just for the office fee youd think one would leave feeling all concerns were properly addressed. Giving 2 stars because Im happy two of my issues were addressed.

Please dont waste your time and your money! Unprofessional service and lack of equipment. They werent clear on their service: Marissa forgot to bring the light while doing dermaplanning and she realized that after completed it. I expected her to conduct hydrafacial treatment with the machine but she only used couple products because they dont have the machine for it and she said that after she is done. So disappointed.

Started with the practice as a patient of PA Steven Meeks, who was wonderful. He left the practice earlier this year, and saw a new PA, Andrea Harris, who was fine. What has been a problem is confusion about the prescriptions she ordered for me at my visit. I picked up both from the practice. I was not given usage instructions and had to ask for them from the front office staff. Then when I used one of the medications, it did not seem at all like what Id discussed with her. So I called, and after calling 3 times, got a response they believed I had the wrong medication and were getting in the correct thing in a couple weeks and would call me. Almost 3 weeks later, I called them to follow up. The nurse I spoke with said she would speak to another nurse and have her follow up with me. I waited another 2 days, and called again, only to have to hang up at after 10 minutes on hold. I called again this afternoon, and have now been told I should bring the medication in question to the office so they can figure it out. This is not the kind of professionalism I expect at a doctors office. It also was not my experience when I saw Steven Meeks, so I dont know if things have just changed over the past few months, but I do know I would not recommend this practice to a friend at this point.

Alexis (aesthetician) is amazing. I came in to get some professional help with terrible acne and post inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

I had a 7:50 appointment and they were right on time. Placed in a room and asked A few questions. Dr came in checked myhead and “ froze “ a couple spots. No inquiry into past reasons to be there . I did ask them to look at a couple spots and she did. No check up other than that. They did not show much interest in anything other than getting me out the door. I could not have been there more than five minutes !Hopefully They spotted what skin cancer was there. Maybe it was just a bad day for them. My previous experience has been good as has my spouses.

Dr. Donnelly is a most knowledgeable & thorough dematologist. If she discovers a medical issue during your yearly body check, the problem is evaluated immediately. Dr. Donnelly is a physician with compassion, honest concern & a wonderful rapport with her patients. ❤ Her office is certainly well managed & all her staff are most helpful. 👏 My husband & I are most fortunate to have Dr. A. Donnelly as our skin physician. We give Dr. Donnelly our highest recommendation. (Christine Lungren-Maddalone & Ray Maddalone)

Dr Donnelly is so professional and knowledgeable. She always take the time to address all of my questions and gives proper recommendations. I never feel rushed and I always feel well taken care of. She was able to successfully diagnose and treat a skin condition I’ve had for years after many misdiagnoses. I’ve been to many derms in Indy and I’ve found the one I will stick with for a very long time!

Waited 3 months to see a doctor. I have been needing to get an annual checkup as I’ve done for years in Illinois. Just moved to Indiana.Military member that had a type of insurance recently changed before a deployment. New insurance required a referral which is fine. I spoke directly with tricare who stated all that forefront needs to do is call one number and refer me directly to their service and it would be fully covered.Called forefront to ask if they could just call one phone number so that I would be covered and could still come to my appointment. I was also considering coming still and paying cash for the appointment while the insurance was figured out. Again, an annual checkup that I really need.Individual on the phone told me I was wrong. This despite being just told by my insurer it would work, be fully covered, and was provided a number for them to call. No further discussion. After months of waiting I now have to find another provider or wait until I return from deployment. Then when back on my normal insurance plan, where I do not require referrals, find a new provider.One phone call and after months of waiting I could have been seen. I’ll just find a provider who is willing to make a single phone call on behalf of a patient so they can receive the care they should receive before a deployment.

It is unbelievable what they do here. Every small procedure will cost you minimum $400 so please remember that if you have for example 4 moles removed, they are going to charge you upwards of $1, 600. No wonder this is the case as they have one doctor and 17 nurses that each ask you one question and leave. What a system ha? Perfect free market efficiency

Last summer my teenage daughter wanted me to make an appointment for acne issues. I made a request for an appointment online and I received a phone call within 48 hours. They were able to give my daughter a new patient appointment within 2 days that was extremely convenient. I was having some dermatitis issues and was trying to get an appointment closer to where I work. I called several other offices and they could not give me an appointment for 4 months. I decided to call even though the location was not great. Again I was given an appointment within three days at a convenient time. The PA examined my issue and determined a potential treatment. Shew warned me of potential non insurance coverage and expense. if it was an issue they could do mail order and be much cheaper. It ended up being covered. The RX steroid has given me relief within 48 hours. A very satisfied customer. My only complaint was the wait. However I have waited longer for other appointments.

My 2nd visit here and this time was just as good as the last. The staff members are knowledgeable, calming, and efficient. There is no waiting for long periods of time. Arrived quite nervous and left feeling calm and certain that I had received excellent treatment. Highly recommend for all dermatological needs.3rd visit with my daughter as a new patient. Been waiting an extraordinarily long time. Multiple people with later appointment times have been taken back. When we inquired, we were brushed off and then told we were next. They then proceeded to call more parties back. Not okay, all the while the sign says the Doctors are on time...they are not. My time is valuable as well.

Dr Negretti is probably the best dr I have seen Her knowledge of medications and the insurance process goes beyond what I’ve had with any doctor. She resolves the issue and has a plan in one visit instead of having several scenarios and waiting til next follow up to find answers. She goes above and beyond a normal dr visit to solve complicated issues and is very clear about next steps to take.
