Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Caruthers is an excellent dermatologist. I’ve been going to him since I was a teen (40+ years ago) I’ve tried other derms when I lived in other cities, but no one was as good at diagnosing and solving my skin ailments. You do have to wait a while to get in for an appointment, but it’s totally worth the wait. Not sure what I will do when he retires.

Yes you might wait 15 minutes longer but every time I went to him he apologize for the wait. What dr. off you go in we’re you haven’t waited always wants to down a person of color, if you don’t have any thing nice to say stay off the reviews. But you haven’t committed on the diagnosis he gave you did you let the people know that what ever he said helped you. That’s what wrong with the public they want to come back and criticize everything these people are trying to save your life it’s not them that gave you the problem. Check your self?

I have nothing but good things to say about this doctor compared to other dermatologists I've seen that rush you out their office like cattle because their trying to see as many as they can. I constantly wasn't listened to and was given medication for rosacea, take this and if it doesn't work come back, no I'm not coming back because you don't listen. I seen Dr. Caruthers and if felt different immediately he listened and he was concerned so If I have to wait longer than I was told then so be it

Is Dr. Caruthers' office still open? I have been calling for weeks now and have yet to get a answer. I need refills and don't want to have to pay $80 to see a new doctor!

I went to this doctor for a checkup. I waited an hour in the office. I then went up to the secretary and asked her how much longer it would be. She said it would be another 45 mins to an hour. If you have a job or any other obligations to get to, AVOID THIS doctor at all costs. You will wait a long time.
