  3. I worked with both Dr. Ally and Dr. Campbell – they couldn’t have taken better care with me for what was a very unexpected and scary situation for me – highly recommend both!

  4. The location is very convenient and the office is beautiful! The staff is very professional, courteous and friendly. The office is extremely comfortable.

  5. I was seen at Derick Dermatology last year for a winter skin irritation.. Since then I misplaced the medication, ointment from last year.I called for a refill letting them know I no longer have insurance and would have to pay on a monthly …

  6. I’ve tried calling several times over a few days and have had no luck getting anyone to answer the phone. I’ve even left a message on their voicemail that stated I would receive a call w/in 24 hours. Time to move on.

  7. All around a great experience starting with check in and the medical staff are top notch they check every where and tell you about each thing they find if its something to be concerned about or not.

  8. Beautiful office and extremely knowledgeable and friendly staff! I highly recommend Derick Dermatology and have already referred several friends who had the same experience!

  9. I’ve been to several dermatologists in the past. Derick Dermatology is far above in service, knowledge, and courtesy than any I have visited.
    I highly recommend them for any skin issues.

  10. I have been going to Derrick Dermatologist for a couple of years and have never had a bad experience. From check to the surgeon. I never felt confused or felt like I didn’t understand anything.

  11. The provided was not prepared for our visit, despite our calling several times to be sure they had our transferred records in advance. They also called the wrong prescription into our pharmacy.

  12. I highly recommend Derick Dermatology. Very professional and thorough. Didn’t have to wait and got me in and out. Always make me feel very comfortable! I highly recommend!

  13. Very pleased. I started going for the cosmetic side with tattoo laser removals and have started using the medical side as well. Dr Bosko and Dr Sheehan are fantastic. I highly recommend them.

  14. The techs ability to draw blood requires improvement. They used both arms and two techs. They tried to reuse the same vacutainer three times. I pointed out that the blood was flowing so slow because the vacuum in the vacutainer was probably gone. She got a new vacutainer and it worked.

  15. I believe that this group is the finest among all dermatologists in this area! They are beyond competent, professional as well as kind of heart with all patients. I would highly recommend this group to anyone.

  16. I was nervous going to a new specialty, but every single person I interacted was kind, helpful, and genuine. I would send anyone there knowing they would get amazing care!

  17. I felt welcomed at Derek Dermatology. Staff, and Dr. were very nice, friendly and knowledgeable. They were prompt and courteous. I would highly recommend them.

  18. When I first went to this Dermatologist I want only to have some moles removed. And it was found out that I did have some spots that could possibly be cancerous they did the biopsy’s and think of this everything came back OK they made me …

  19. I call ahead with questions and when we get there I realized I was lied to. Couldn’t stay in the room while they did a small procedure on my husband and led me to a waiting area telling me they have juice boxes. I’m 35, not 5! If I’m hoping to be lied to then I won’t be returning with either my husband or daughter.

  20. This group is thorough and explains things well. I have never sat in the office waiting for an appointment more than about 10 minutes either so they don’t overbook patients.

  21. Very clean, very professional. I love that they have many offices that are beautiful. Everyone is very caring and intelligent. Will definitely refer friends.

  26. I have never experienced an medical office or staff as wonderful as this one. From the moment I walked in the door to the moment i stepped out, I felt welcomed and cared for, as if I was family. I highly suggest Derick Dermatology.

  27. First let me start by saying I only have a left arm and that I tend to judge people by how they reach out to shake hands. Especially politicians and professionals. An observant person who cares will reach out to shake my hand with their left hand. This Dr. didn’t. Other then my personal pet peeve everything went good.

  28. Went in for an eczema flare up as a new patient. I’ve had eczema my whole life, but haven’t needed to see a doctor for it in several years. The doctor at Derick prescribed me a medication for it after an exam and a discussion about …

  29. Very efficient operation, and very good bed side manners during surgical layer procedures.
    I was prescribed and given Tylenol upon exiting checkout. That was sufficient …

  33. Beautiful office, friendly and prompt reception and typically a minimal to no wait. Appointment/treatment is thorough/skilled and practitioner seeks to find the best resolution to my persistent issue.

  34. I sat in the Dr’s office in my underwear for ONE HOUR before the doctor came in. Suggested I might try patch testing (I did which means my chart wasn’t even looked at) and was “prescribed” vaseline for my itchy rash. Wouldn’t even LOOK at …

  37. A great team of professionals. They listened to my concerns and appeared to understand my desired outcomes, before offering what they believed to be my best medical outcomes.

  38. The office in Elgin is well run and you get seen at the time of your visit. While I work 5 minutes from the Barrington office, I have found that the office staff there is not as helpful and I’ve waited up to 30 minutes without any …

  39. I’ve had several appointments here and have always been treated well. I have been seen by Dr. Derick, P.A. Karen Smith, and other practitioners with good results and minimal wait times. Office staff are pleasant and professional. Highly recommended.

  44. I was treated with amazing kindness and professionalism. The whole experience was pleasant and the staff went to great lengths to explain everything that was about to happen. Highly recommended.

  45. Love this place. Always feel welcomed and not like I am in a doctor’s office. They answer all my questions and take care of things right away. Instead of having you come back for another appointment.

  46. Best medical practice in the entire Northwest suburbs. Everything about the practice is perfection. Brilliant management. Jenny is our go to professional at the Elgin location. She is the most adorable, knowledgeable, endearing, …

  47. This is the second bad experience I’ve had at Derick Dermatology. The one today, July 11, 2019 is worth writing about. My appointment for my annual skin cancer screening with a nurse had been scheduled months ago. My normal drive time to …

  48. My only issue is I am old school. I would like to get a hard copy of the summary of the visit. I have pulled up the online version, but it is not complete and I can’t figure out what it says. That’s why I have to keep leaving messages with questions. They are very good about calling back with responses.

  51. First time going to a dermatologist and my experience was great. I visited derick dermatologist for my acne and I was treated kind and professionally.

  56. My surgery was a success, all the cancer is gone and the scar is barely there! Healing awesomely. Sarah was amazing in explaining everything and super patient with all my questions.

  73. I went there in a panic. I was so worried because I could not understand why my skin was breaking out. The Dr was able to figure out what the diagnosis was and provided me with the proper cream! Thank you so much.

  74. The staff was professional, personable and exceptional. I say this because the numbing injection, before the biopsy, was unexpectedly excruciating and the PA gave me permission to squeeze her hand during the procedure. I was in great hands of expert care.
