    This was my first visit with Dr Tewes and most of time was spent going over my medical history but not my current meds. He did examin my two medical problems on my face and recommended a prescription for mupirocin which I tried twice (old and new refill). It did nothing. He did suggest seeing a dermatologist which I did. Before my appointment with the dermatologist, I used an old topical antibiotic which helped considerably. Mupirocin, based on previous experience, seems to be the standardized go to topical. I did talk on the phone after my office visit with a medical person and they wanted me to use the new useless refill. One of the two problems cleared up using the antibiotic I had before my dermatology appointment.

    He's on top of things. Works through issues you might have and so far has solved stumping issues. He's friendly and fun to joke with, but serious about your over all being and health.
