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 Ravi removed a stye from my eye after other doctors said it’s just my eye draining and nothing can be done about it.Well guess what it is gone. Thank you Dr. Ravi.

Skin tag
We went to Caring dermatologist for check up my husband for skin tag removal his staff was very good. Dr. Ravi I can't say anything, he is a very good doctor dermatologist before starting the skin tags off he first inspected my husband's skin and observed that there was dry skin and itching he gave a prescription. For me, he is a good dermatologist doctor, he takes great care of his clients and he really makes sure that everything is okay and there are no problems. We will definitely come back for the next check up. I really want him as a dermatologist doctor for my family. Thank you Dr. Ravi for taking care of your patient.

removal of Cyst
The staff was very courteous, apologizing for the wait time that I felt was not that long. Everyone was very friendly,and the entire facility was extremely clean. Dr. Gangadhariah and his assistant who performed my procedure were very caring and concerned with the outcome and potential scarring that could result in the future. I certainly would highly recommend their clinic to everyone. Thank you

He was excellent and very concise when working with me. The staff was polite and friendly. The wait time was very quick. Only downside is because of small staff sometimes they can't always answer the phone when you call. However, they do call you back within the day you called.

Dr. Ravi performed two minor surgeries on my face. Neither left a scar. He is very careful and thorough in his work. I would recommend Dr. Ravi to anyone with skin problems.

Dr. Ravi is very knowledgeable, and extremely caring. He implemented new treatments on the psoriasis and has nearly gotten rid of it in two visits. He said he was very happy for me..my response was really great. If it comes back, I will feel good about going back to him.

Not very happy at all. Waited 45 minutes for the consult, then at my procedure a week later to remove a cyst on my head, Dr.Ravi numbed me up, then 30 minutes later came in and said he could not do the procedure today because the guy who sharpens his instruments was there and he had NO SHARP INSTRUMENTS!!!! I asked what he was planning to use on me then!!!! We had to reschedule!!!! Think I’ll wait to get an appointment elsewhere!!! Staff, however, I found to be very friendly!

Highly recommend Dr. G - Very knowledge and considerate of my needs. I had nothing but bad experiences previously with the BIG BOX so-called skin specialists in Davenport. So glad my friend referred me to Caring Dermatology !!

Too much of waiting time. I went twice and waited more than 45 mins. He took hardly 5 mins for my check up. They try to sell products in their office. I was unable to say no and paid $41 for a cleanser. Same cleanser is available in $19. I will never go there.

Scraped at the rash on my neck too hard and too long (second opinion dermatologist was much gentler). Did not fully explain diagnosis. Many posters advertising medications did not give me confidence that the doc would prescribe something without bias.

I was not very satisfied with this doctor. Went in to see him for the first time and he was very demanding. He would not listen to me at all! I told him the type of treatment I would like to do that has worked in the past for me and he told me I was not going to do that, and that we were doing what he wanted! I would not recommend him to anyone!

I had a very good visit at Dr. Ravi's office. He is very precise and professional. Felt I was in good hands with his diagnosis. Would definitely recommend his office for dermatology treatment. Got in within two weeks. Wait time was half an hour. Answered all my concerns and staff was pleasant. He gets 5 stars.

When no prescription was received even after a week I visited doctor for extreme hair fall; irritated & itchy scalp; I called them to follow up. As my husband had visited doctor earlier, without my consent they had changed my last name & prescription was given in wrong name. Called them almost every single day since, its been more than a week, still no luck with the prescription. Highly negligent , irresponsible & arrogant staff. Extremely disappointed.
