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.
Had a facial cyst or colorless mole to be removed.

I am very pleased with the care from Dr. Blankinship. He determined my rare diagnosis immediately, after I had gone to a different facility and had been to 3 providers with no diagnosis and no plan for further care. He was very informative and sincere.

Started as a random call that has turned out to be the best patient/physician experience. He epitomizes what medicine should be. My 12 year old has been seeing him for acne, and I cannot say it loud enough how appreciative I am for having found Dr.Blankenship. He is what every physician should be. Listens, attentive and makes every effort to answer all questions despite the time limitation. He is the best.

Doctor Blankenship has been an incredible asset in my pursuit of healthy skin. He's kind and always explains everything in great detail. He is efficient without seeming rushed or hurried; though he is typically booked more than 30 days out. If I were you I wouldn't go anywhere else for dermatology.
It's also nice that's he's incredibly attractive. +1 extra credit.
