Patient Reviews
May 18, 2020
Dr. Skillern has been my doctor for almost a year assisting with my vascular issues as they arise... including varicose veins, insufficient venous valves, and an anticoagulant disorder. He performed laser surgery on one of my legs and we are preparing for the next. He is a very kind and sympathetic doctor who immediately puts his patients at ease. I highly recommend Dr. Skillern.
