Mid Florida Dermatology & Plastic Surgery Altamonte Springs

My wife had gone here for a cyst on her leg. Not only was it treated incorrectly but we were charged a lot of money. For my wife's care that doesn't matter. After they took a sample we awaited patiently for a diagnosis. After a couple of weeks we called them and I guess they had the results??? Not only were they wrong and another physician treated us properly but we were charged another outrages amount. Oh yeah, we went to another physician and they said we need to treat or she could lose her leg. The incorrect diagnosis could have cost my wife her leg. last but not least, later we get a bill stating we are being sent to collections for non payment with no communication from this crappy establishment. There is literally any place better then this, please if you care about your loved ones and your financial situation don't go there!!

This happened to me awhile ago... I have just been to busy to write a review. I have also found another dermatologist since then. I came in for my routine skin check up because my mother has skin cancer so I'm naturally concerned for my own skin. I had to get a spot removed on my chest. (I have had done this before with minimal scarring and you can't even tell Where they were) I don't know what was different this time but she literally cut a deep square in my skin much deeper and larger than the spot. I was horrified when I peeled the band aid off! Now I have a ugly square shaped scar/hole in the middle of my chest. I even had one that kept returning that we had to remove a few times that doesn't even look like this one. I never came back to tell her my dissatisfaction. I don't normally leave bad reviews - but I now have an unsightly scar in the middle of my chest that I'm having another doctor trying to repair the damage. I honestly wish I would have read the reviews before I came to this office because I would have never gone.

Well, we went here for my son. I don't think the doctor was rude. Slightly condensending though. I read through all of the reviews before we went in, and we went in a bit scared. I'll post a few points. 1. My son is in a wheelchair. He cannot walk. This facility does not have an elevator, or ramp going up to the second floor. It was very difficult for us to get my son and his wheelchair up to the second floor. She did offer to make our next appointment at a facility where we didn't have to go up stairs. That was very kind, BUT it is still against the ADA for a medical facility to not have an elevator if they are on the second floor of an office building. 2. One of the first things she mentioned was that she was not wearing her doctor coat because "apparently it scares children and I don't want to scare your son" this stood out to me because one of the previous reviews stated that the dermatologist lady scared her grand daughter and it seemed to bother her. So I found this a bit condescending. 3. She kept trying to insist that my son's condition is because of contact dermatitis. I can understand her reasoning, but the only way to get his rash to go away is to use yeast medication. She even specifically stated that if the Diflucan made it do away, then that is not characteristic of dermatitis. That the only thing that Diflucan treats is yeast. So my logic was that if the rash completely goes away with a yeast medication then it is not contact dermatitis. The rash ALWAYS comes back within 1-2 days of stopping yeast treatment, so I am afraid that it is a form of resistant yeast. After explaining to her my logic, she is still saying we need to change wipes and diapers on top of a new yeast cream and an anti-inflamitory medicine. I will follow her advice and try a different diaper and water wipes. I understand sometimes you can get a reaction from something that you have used for years. I know, it has happened to me before. But the rash looks nothing like contact dermatitis, and the only thing that helps it is a yeast medication. 4. The receptionist was kind enough. I didn't have any problems with her being rude. It seem like she was forcing a smile, it didn't seem genuine, but I really wouldn't complain. Sometimes you are having a bad day. The assistant helping the doctor was kind. She sat in on the whole appointment for what I am assuming is because of all of the complaints they have had. So I'm betting it was a backup to ensure that it's not a he said she said battle if someone complains. It didn't bother me having her there. She even was kind enough to have the receptionist get my son a sticker after his apt. Overall if you have a simple issue then you may try your luck here. I don't know how knowledgeable she really is about skin conditions. Once she gets an idea in her head it gets stuck there. So if you have a serious concern I may suggest getting it checked out elsewhere. Personally I won't be taking my son back. We got a hold of our doctor office and got a referral to infectious disease. I feel they may be more knowledgeable on what is going on with my son. And they may even culture his rash to ensure a proper diagnosis.

My boyfriend has visited this office for a while, but he has never seen the Dermatologist. Always the nurse, he has been dealing with some skin problems which she hasn't been able to solve. She is a nice person but she isn't prepared well enough to deal with all skin issues and she even prescribed many creams to treat other skin problems. Very frustrated for the time and money spent.

I have going to Mid Florida Dermatology for about two years under the care of Mickelle Riley. She is an excellent Dermatologists. She is so professional and thorough. Use just can't do any better than Mickelle Riley. in the
