Pinnacle Dermatology: Spurlin David V MD

I highly recommend this dermatologist. I have been seeing him off and on for over 10 years and I never had had a negative experience. I am not sure why some people gave such low ratings. The office staff is very friendly and the PAs are amazing!!

I was referred to Dr. Spurlin by my GP and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I had a small growth on my wrist that had changed in appearance, and, after examination, I was given the choice of cryotherapy or excision. I opted for excision and the process was quick and painless. The tissue was sent for biopsy and I was told if I didn't receive a call from the office, then the results were negative (which they were :o). The entire visit, including completing some paperwork, took about an hour. Everyone on staff was a pleasure to deal with and Dr. Spurlin really put me at ease. I would highly recommend Dr. Spurlin and Pinnacle Dermatology. And there is ample off-street parking in the lot at the rear of the building!

Dr. Spurlin has been very personable and helpful. I would definitely recommend him to anyone needing a dermatologist.

One star for the terrible waste of time this office put me through. They recommended I take accutane even though I didn’t need it and it made absolutely no difference for six months. Really messed with my vitals - gave me high cholesterol. Requires you to get bloodwork monthly and visit monthly just so they can collect. Additionally, I went in to the office ten days before my wedding under stress because my skin was displaying new issues. Dr. Spurlin did not have the patience to deal with a stressed out bride so he walked out in the middle of my 5 minutes with him. Then he made it a point to come back and ask his assistant to leave the room because apparently he was “done with me”. Fairly unprofessional and inconsiderate; not what you’d expect from a real medical professional. I would not refer anyone I know to this man. After doing some research online, I realize that I am not the only patient he has mistreated. He develops an opinion about patients and it is not a professional health care provider opinion. It's a matter of if he likes you or not. Regardless, I never once felt like I was under the care of someone I could trust. It is my fault for not knowing and leaving his care sooner. But I really don't want anyone else to go through a similar or worse experience.
