Oakview Dermatology - Athens in other cities:
I really like the way they explained the procedure to me. They told me what to expect and I feel good about it. I would highly recommend them to anyone. I had to go back and have them look at my wound and they were on it and got me taken care of and explained to me what I needed to do. They take great care of their patients.
To the exceptional staff and the wonderful Dr at Oakview Dermatology.It was a pleasure,as always,receiving treatment from you on Thursday.I was cover from head to toe with Psoriasis a month ago Since being treated for my skin care through Oakview Dematology I’m psoriasis free.I have only been more impressed with your knowledge,kindness,and most of all your caring manner.Thank you genuinely for the outstanding service you provided me with, your kindheartedness was so appreciated. Thank you for my visit.”
Treatment and short wait for it were good. Facility was clean and comfortable. My only issue is the volume of paperwork required upon checking in for a visit. I had to work through three or four pages of info. I would have thought at least a portion of this would not have needed to be refreshed to change my patient information.
August 25, 2022THEY DO NOT ACCEPT OHIO CARESOURCE MEDICAID, only Ohio Caresource Marketplace. Being part of the Ohio Health system I keep getting told to contact Oakview for a Dermatologist. After speaking with them one doctor is no longer employed there and the others do not take Caresource Medicaid. 👎
I have been a patient of Oakview Dermatology in Athens, Ohio for years. Dr, Dawn Sammons and her crew are top notch in the World of Dermatology. I `came to there office to seek relief from psoriasis. They worked diligently to find a regiment that would work for me. I have been free now for a long time. Oakview did what other dermatologist did not! I am so thankful for this office and the great people in it.
My experience was great from the initial consultation/surgery to the removal of my stitches a couple weeks later. I was at ease and very comfortable with everyone on the staff including the receptionist when I checked in to the nurses and my doctor. Thank you for being excellent! - Mindy Travis
I was very impressed with the staff at the beautiful new location. I wasnt kept waiting and was treated with respect and courtesy. The check-in was easy and I was called back in a timely manner. They explained each step and my options. They listened to my concerns and addressed them. I was impressed with my visit overall.
My experience at Oakview from start to finish has been excellent. They are so kind and caring, they addressed my needs respectfully and were so encouraging. They fixed an issue that has plagued me and deeply impacted my confidence. I couldnt be more happy with the outcome and their work. Thank you so much!!
From the second I walked into the building, I felt comfortable. The waiting room is gorgeous, the front desk staff is awesome and the nurse who took me back to the exam room was wonderful. And Adriana Walsh was superb!! She was no nonsense, answered my questions, and made sure I understood what the diagnosis was. I recommend her (and the whole practice) fully!!
My most recent appointment at Oakview was a little surprising. I arrived 5 minutes early, they took me back to the exam room right at my appointment time.Within 20 minutes of my arrival my condition was evaluated, treatment was provided and I was back on the road.These are true professionals!
I had an appointment time of 1:10 July 1, 2021 and arrived 10 minutes early to fill out paperwork. They set me up with a resident as they didn’t accept my insurance. The receptionist was rather rude saying I had to self pay the full visit fee. When I asked why I was told otherwise she huffed and made me fill out the self pay form anyhow. Later saying she did see a notation in the file but to take the form and hand it to the nurse when she comes and gets me. At 1:45 I asked the receptionist if there was something wrong that I hadn’t been taken back as 9 others that came after me had been taken back within 5 minutes of their checkin. She said I just had to wait for a nurse to come and get me. At 2:12 I got up and left after multiple other patients were quickly taken back. I have never had such an issue with a medical establishment. I gave a one star rating as the waiting area was clean and I couldn’t leave a zero star rating. Dr. Sammons has treated my mother for over 10 years and so I am baffled as to why my experience was so vastly different. I’d rather suffer my psoriasis cracking and bleeding than to be treated the way I was ever again. Why even offer a free clinic or sliding fee if you’re not going to treat the patients with the same courtesy as any other patient?
Staff is wonderful. They listen to all of your concerns and treat them accordingly. The building and interior is beautifully decorated. I have been going to them since December and I am so glad I was referred. Appointments are so quick and easy. I recommend this place to friends and family!
Anytime you hear the word cancer, it is very scary. I have 3 places on my face and was scheduled for the Mohs surgery on my neck.The moment I walked in the building I felt at ease. The nurse I had was fabulous! I think her name was Shannon. Then Dr. Addario was amazing! (and handsome). During the entire start to finish they both talked to me and that kept me relaxed. It was absolutely painless.I recommend them 100%.
Very effective and knowledgeable in diagnosing skin issues. I’ve been a patient for many years. I’m fair skinned and have abused my skin by being exposed to excessive sunlight. I’ve changed my thinking by being more aware and taking preventive measures to decrease sun damage to my skin.Great facility.
I went in just for all over check. I was a sun bather for years. Glad to say I had a good checkup.Everyone there was very nice and very professional. Chelsea File was my doctor. She was great! Professional and made me feel relaxed. I will definitely follow up.I would love to have the dermabrazion!
In and out quickly with a thorough skin scan. Friendly, courteous staff. Would be nice if they had a system in place to complete the patient information update online. I really hate having to sit in a waiting room to complete paperwork that could have been completed at my convenience online.
Dr. Walsh is a wonderful person and took the time to explain to me the differences between my normal freckles, age spots, and precancerous/cancerous spots. The freezing of the precancerous spots still stung like tiny needles, but it only lasted for a few moments.I’m still glad they’re on my team.
Overview Dermatology was the greatest experience I have ever had at a doctor’s office. From the time I signed in until the time I left. The staff are quick, friendly, and efficient. The doctor hands down was the nicest I have ever been to. He seems to generally care about his patients and is very knowledgeable. I will definitely continue to see this staff if the occasion occurs that I need to :)
My wife and I are both patients at Oakview and ALWAYS have a positive experience! The staff is very friendly and informative. Our appointments never feel rushed and best of all.... we rarely have a wait time. Dr. Chelsea File AND her assistant Megan always make us feel comfortable and prioritized! We highly recommend Oakview Dermatology!
Dr. Sammons and the entire staff at Oakview are just amazing!!! Thoughtful, kind, courteous and professional. From the moment we walked in until the time we left, we were met with professionalism and genuine kindness!! My teen daughter was assessed by Carla, she worked with Dr. Sammons to devise a treatment plan, the doctor then gameIn the room and talked with us, and explained as to why they made the suggestions they made regarding life choices (tanning beds) and treatment!! The appointment was quick, simple and something I wouldn’t hesitate to do again!! I barely got the paperwork started and they were already showing us to a room!! Quick king and professional throughout the whole appointment!!! Thank you all got making our experience one that was awesome!!!
Takes alot to impress this ol broad 😎But I have to give the girls at Oakview a10. It was a fast but lovely experience. My PA Adriana has a lovely accent and I did have to pay attention. 😉 But all my questions were answered and now I am waiting to see how things turn out.When you had a Mother with face cancer and then both Mother and Father passed from lung cancer you stay on top of your changes in and on your body.When I left Oakview that day I felt a sense of relief knowing that I now have some great, caring folks who will help keep on eye on me.
Although my appointment was made to evaluate rosacea, Adriana Walsh was extremely insightful in clearly explaining in detail how to avoid “triggers”. While this is a problem that began 20 years ago, I am mow much more aware of ways to manage the chronic condition.Subsequently, I inquired about another ongoing condition and again received both superb technical information as well as a new medication. Ultimately, a total of 5 different dermatological issues were discussed. Adriana and her assistant too, were always cordial and patient as they answered my questions with reassuring, clearly stated options.I was also provided a “patient handout” summarizing each of the five items. Given the diversity of topics, this serves as a playbook when verbal recommendations may be forgotten. The 5 stars are definitely deserved.
I always have a very positive experience with all the staff at Oakview Dermatology. I’ve had appointments with several of the staff over the years. My most recent appointments have been with Adriana Walsh. She is top-notch. She listens to the reason you are there, explains everything involved in a procedure, asks questions, and is always pleasant. Thank you!
Adrianna Walsh, and all of the Oakview Dermatology Staff and Team of doctors and technicians ARE superb, personable, knowledgeable, fair, warm and funny. Do not hesitate to book an appointment to get to know the team of Oakview Dermatology; no matter which office you determine is best for you. Furthermore, Adrianna and all of the Staff deserve a raise today!
My daughter went for an appointment today and she and her son have been there before. She paid her 60.00 copay along with a 30.00 balance she had from a previous visit. Then they ask her to fill out paperwork and they wanted credit card information put down. She doesnt have a debit or credit card and pays cash along with having commercial insurance since she works full time. The lady out front checked with the manager and she came back out in front of a room full of patient and annouced that if she dont put down CC info shed have to pay full balance to be seen. Even though she just paid her 60.00 copay and has commercial insurance. by coming out and announcing my daughter was embarrased and emotionally upset since it made her look like she didnt have the money or was on welfare, which she isnt. Again she works full time for a doctor office in town. You would have thought the lady would have called her up front and discussed this with her instead of announcing out loud in front of everyone. Pitiful!!
My husband received Courtious, Careful, Informative, Professional and Caring procedures. Involved, Concerned and gentle care focused on patient comfort. He cannot express enough how pleasant and caring experience he received and how greatful and fortunate he was to select Oakview for his surgery. Well done Dr D and staff.
I have been to both the Canal Winchester and Athens Oakview Derm locations and can say that each experience has been great! The staff and doctors are very welcoming and friendly and the offices are beautiful and extremely clean! 10/10 recommend stopping by! My skin feels and looks amazing!
Everyone is so nice and professional. They answer all my questions and concerns. I just love Dr. Sammons...she is wonderful and is very concerned for my condition. Also I just love Dr. D’Addario...he’s so much fun and makes me laugh every time I have to see him. He makes the procedures seem more relaxing. He’s also very concerned about my condition. They are a very nice group of professionals.
I thought the office was very professional. Staff was friendly. I felt the appt for a first time visit was quite rushed. My appt time was 10:30 and I was back to my car at 10:56. They did answer questions as they went. I dont really know what to expect from a full body screen since this was my first.
Staff is congenial-Dr was very personable.Dr stated he would call me at 8PM on night of surgery but failed to do so.Previous visit with different dr was not as good. Her people skills were limited. Worse yet, she prescribed a med and instructed me to apply it incorrectly on wrong place on my head. That complicated my second visit.
Ive been to other dermatologists in the past and waited months to even be seen. My visit here was great. I went in ONE time and they took care of my problem in about 45 min. including the waiting times. Hands down best dermatologist experience of my life. More doctors offices should model themselves after Oakview. THANK YOU!
This was the first time I was there. But everyone was friendly and very helpful. The office is beautiful. The two who took care of me was friendly and seemed genuine concerned about helping me with my problem. I would recommend Oakview Dermatogy in Athens, OH to anyone who needs to see a dermatologist.
My appointment was 8:40 am. I was treated by Dr. Dammons and out the door by 9 am.The staff was very pleasant and efficient. Dr. Sammons was very personable explained things very thoroughly.I highly recommend Oakview Dermatology.An added plus is that the facility is impressive in itself
The office staff, physicians and the PA’s are all amazing. They are always on time when we go, which is a blessing!!! My son see’s PA Nathan and he’s amazing. He completely listens and then address our concerns, goes over the whole plan or care and makes sure we are satisfied with results and treatment regimen.
Since mid-June I have had to deal with a highly unusual issue. I’ve been seen by 6 different physicians, and none of them knew what to do except for Dr. Adriana. I believe she has helped me and cured my ailment, and I want to thank her for actually listening to me and understanding my issues and desire for a real cure, not just a bandaid.
Find somewhere else. Frequent problems. One time I had an appointment before the end of the year and drove an hour to my appointment to have them tell me the doctor left for the day and they couldnt see me. Another time they said they couldnt see me until my balance of less than $20 was paid (and I didnt have the cash on me at the time), so I couldnt see the doctor. It takes forever to get another appointment.
Would have given them four and half stars if I wouldnt have had to wait 45 minutes to be seen once in office only there 5 minutes. Then turned around my husband went 4 days later and had to wait an houhalf If theyre always this far behind they should let people know.

2022-08-13I did not have to wait long to see the doctor. Most people I encountered were very friendly with the exception of front desk person who was not rude but not friendly.I was treated with respect and had time to ask questions while the appointment was very efficient and quick. I felt I was in professional and skilled hands.

2022-07-21I noticed a spot on my cheek and was able to get in the next day to get it checked out. It was Basal Cell Carcinoma. The MOHS procedure was an amazing choice! The nurses and doctors explained everything as they went and were very kind and courteous. They made the whole ordeal a positive experience.
