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.

Insensitive!
Very insensitive about premature hair loss. Will never see him again!

I can’t imagine anyone giving Dr Checketts anything but a 5. He is compassionate, intelligent, and thinks outside the box. He is helping me with some chronic skin infections and conditions in ways that is different from any Dr I’ve had. He is incredibly kind and caring and looks at the body as a “whole” unit. So unusual for Drs to think this way. I’m glad I found him!

Find another doctor, trust me.
Dude. This guy is the WORST. He messed up my daughters acne paperwork causing us to wait an entire extra month to start, suggested at TWO different appts that my 16 year old daughter come to her appointment alone next time, made us wait for 20 minutes while he talked to other doctors about hiking and skiing, and on our third visit, his office had scheduled us for a day that he was not in. Boo to this guy... find literally, anyone else.

I went to Mr. Checkett’s office to get my wart removed and I was left with a wound in my arm that scarred terribly. I went back to figure out what options I had to get the scar to look better and he told me that he couldn’t do anything and had no other options for me but to have an ugly scar [maybe try Mederma? :( ]. I asked and asked but it turned out to be a huge waste of money and time. Thank God I found a dermatologist on Tik Tok with an actual suggestion to improve my scar and its already looking better after a month. Mr. Checkett’s is not a good doctor.

I went to see Dr. Checketts a few years ago (my last dermatologist would do a full body exam including my hair) Dr Checketts only looked at my face..squirted me twice..I showed him one more spot on my hand and he ask if I wanted squirted. I said sure...No one told me that extra squirt would cost me and additional $200. All in all he spent less that 2 minutes with me and billed me over $400. Maybe I should be a Dr.—that come out to about $12,000 and hour. When I called about the bill that I paid

Dr Checketts is an incredible dermatologist! I asked on facebook who my friends recommend for a dermatologist and about half of them said Dr Checketts. I went to him (long wait to get it because he's so good and popular) but worth it! He took my warts away that no other dermatologist could touch. He also has the best bedside manner ever! He's very honest and educates his patients. Since I have been to him my entire family goes to him and multiple friends. I Travel from Holladay to Layton to see
