Patient Reviews
Feb 20, 2024
My first visit to University Dermatology went very well; I couldn't be happier. After over thirty years with David Lockman, who recently retired, I was apprehensive about starting over with a new doctor. But whatever concerns I might have had were almost immediately minimized as Dr. Whalen's welcoming approach put them to rest.
