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. Sands took the time to answer all of my questions and treated the areas I had concerns in one visit. Nice modern clean office too.
The receptionist and the MA were also super nice.

Love Dr. Sands & staff! I’ve been seeing Dr. Sands for many years, BUT I was disappointed with AP Derm’s scheduler. A scheduling SNAFU caused me to have to wait for an hour today before seeing the doctor.
