Knoxville Dermatology Q&A

Knoxville Dermatology Group

Today we are taking some time to answer each of your questions about our office and what we can provide for you.

Q: Do I need to have a certain skin problem in order to see a dermatologist?

A: We are glad you asked that! No, while many people DO see a dermatologist because of a skin issue, there are also many people who come in just to have their skin checked or to ask certain questions about skincare routines.

Q: What if I don’t like the dermatologist I see the first time? Can I ask for someone else?

A: While we always hope to match you with the right doctor on the first appointment, sometimes there can be a better fit. We are glad to accommodate you in any way that makes you feel most comfortable at Knoxville Dermatology Group.

Q: Do you guys sell products in your office?

A: Yes, we do sell some products in our office, and we have many samples of products for our patients to test out before they invest in them. For stronger things like retinol, we usually send patients to the pharmacy to pick up.

Q: I’m embarrassed by how my skin looks – I don’t even want my doctor looking at it!

A: Don’t worry, trust that our doctors have seen every skin condition there is and they want to help you. There is nothing that will scare them away. Make an appointment today and let us bring you back to feeling like your normal self.

If you need more serious help with skin issues or something else that is troubling your body, we are here to help. Skin health is an important part of total body wellness. Schedule an appointment today with one of our board certified physicians to get your skin the care it needs so it can reach its fullest, healthiest potential.

Call today at 865-690-9467 to schedule an appointment with Knoxville Dermatology Group.
