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.

Rushed. Lots of great doctors in Boone that are practicing that may be better.

Waste of Time
Find a decent doctor who will give you proper care. Ready to be rushed and have your chart not even looked at, then you might be in the right place. Low years of experience, there are many other doctors with far more experience that would possibly be a better choice.

Dr, Garner was extremely professional and easy to talk to. He quickly assessed my situation and then took steps to address the various issues. I would highly recommend Dr. Garner to be YOUR dermatologist. I would give more stars if they allowed me.

Top notch care in small town Boone!
Dr. Garner by far surpassed all of my expectations and then some. He was kind and went out of his way to make sure I felt comfortable. He took the time to speak with me and answered all of my questions no matter how silly they sounded. I am so thankful to have found this AMAZING dermatologist.

This was my first-ever visit to Boone Dermatology. When I called about an appointment, Samantha asked me a few questions and set one up with Dr. Garner for two or three business days later. The check-in went quickly and was simpler than at most medical offices. Dr. Garner quickly diagnosed what was going on and immediately put me at ease that it was relatively common and not dangerous. Then he treated me, said what to expect, and had me on my way. If needing more care I will certainly be making an appointment with him again.
