Karly Moss, PA-C
This may be my second review for Georgia Skin Care. I’m old and couldn’t remember if I had already done one. I figured if I did forget I would do it again to be sure five stars got registered even though five stars are not enough.
Chris Brune, PA-C
Love coming here!!! I’ve never had a wait and I’m always pleased with how Chris cares for his patients.
Melissa Cannon, PA-C
Very pleased she is prompt efficient and courteous.
Morgan Arnold, M.D.
Morgan was very polite and quickly went through the skin check. I felt like she was anxious with any additional questions that may keep her from moving onto the next patient. I haven’t had a skin check in over five years and was looking forward to the opportunity to consult with the dermatologist about general skin care and the condition of my skin, but I felt like she was already halfway out the door mentally. If you are just looking to check the box and have someone identify any major skin concerns, then she is a good fit. I just had my expectations set a little higher.
