Dr. Powell is a caring, fantastic dermatologist! The office is always so clean and everyone working with him so friendly. I would recommend him to anyone that needs a good dermatologist.
This is one of those repeat mistakes. I had not seen this doctor in a couple years and had forgotten the previous one time experience. When I scheduled the appointment and the scheduler had off color remarks as to how the doctor could examine me; my recall began, but I could not remember clearly whether I had been there before. That was just obviously off- putting coming from someone that never has known me at all and over the phone. From someone I actually knew and had good rapport; it would have been funny instead of creepy. Instead of putting her in her place I told her I knew every inch of my body already and needed him to check the problem. I made the appointment then got lost looking for the office which is in the back of an attached building with no signage and none of the surrounding businesses knew the doctor in order to give directions. I called on the road for assistance but no one answered before 2pm (my appt. time) due to late lunch breaks. More recall came to me, and then I walked in saw all the same everything including staff and was sure. I was already there, so I stayed. I remembered my first time there to have the spot on my back that wouldn’t heal biopsied. He was immediately full of bad attitude and snappy. I had never met the guy. Then he biopsied the area and couldn’t manage to Lidocaine the small spot sufficiently and just cut right in without warning. His P.A. was standing right there watching the wince on my face. Then he heads right out the door saying in the worst tone, “I can expect to see you again?” I was enraged at that point and gob smacked and didn’t have time to reply and he was out the door. This time, however, he was different and had a much easier manner and was even prying into my personal business again. I was relieved until he repeated his reckless biopsy AGAIN while I was laying face down on a table bowed up to support someone on their back. There was his P.A. watching me wince again. Because I had not been prepped with malice this time I kept my cool within and had to think about the situation and the factoid of no other close doctors on my plan. So I paid my co-pay; after telling him, “you bet”, when he asked if I’d be back as he rushed out again. I left with a conundrum, making sure to be nice to all his paycheck myopic minions. His P.A. called after the New Year and was trying to rush me in for a procedure with no discussion from the doctor. I told her of the repeated problem and that I wanted my records. The first biopsy took most of it with it and a while to heal but the spot returned. They claimed it was my first visit and that they had no record of it! This was not the thing anyone would be willing to forget twice. Well, I have the same insurance now; I have retrievable info and a record of the credit card payment for both visits. He would rather direct his assistant via speaker phone than speak himself. So I initially said I’d speak to him about it at my next appointment. I spoke to his P.A.who was over-do-it happy, butt-covering and evasive; another who bounced from courteous to smart-aleck and made it personal for her; Jill who thinks her manner can sway you after this kind of experience and the polite receptionist who is clueless if not intentionally even after closely repeated conversations. They tried to charge me$25 for my med records LOL. I knew I was entitled to the only thing needed and required a free copy of my biopsy report. I went to get it after cancelling my appointment. I told the receptionist what I had already explained; that I needed it to give to a better doctor. Then she says, “Do you want to cancel your appointment then? “ I said, “YES”. She said, “Let me check if it has been.” I said, “Okay then”. I left. Stay clear of this clan. I have a larger sun-caused basal skin cancer on my back that needs to be removed by a doctor that I can trust. This one is an unpredictable flake who thinks he’s slick!
