Dr. Wheatley is the best derm I've ever had. She's thorough and careful with her exams. She's also personable and warm, which makes the experience less unpleasant. She listens to my concerns and explains her decision making process, which makes me feel like an active participant in my treatment. I recommend her to everyone who asks if I have a good derm.

Dr Wheatley is so kind and compassionate and engaged each time I see her. She Is excellent at communicating what she sees, what she thinks Is going on, and what the best thing to do would be. She Is also clear about post-visit care and how to reach out If I have further questions or concerns. I could not be happier to have her as my dermatologist.
