Dr. Michelle T. Pelle, MD

I have been living, often painfully, with eczema for the past 20 years. During the most painful flare ups, I have seen numerous doctors, been prescribed a plethora of topicals, and often leave my appointments feeling discouraged and continuously itchy. My most recent flare up was intense and incredibly painful and after five days of trying to live through it, MedDerm was able to squeeze me in for an appointment with DNP Jay Blake... and I cannot be more grateful!! Not only does Jay have a genuine, professional, and sweet demeanor, he provided the utmost quality care by making me feel comfortable/not embarrassed in my uncomfortable/itchy body. He also detailed options on what we can do moving forward and how we can work towards a future with less pain! His nurse, Jasmine, and Louisa at the front desk were the cherries on top of the BEST experience I've ever had at a dermatologist. Mahalo nui to Jay, Jasmine, Louisa, and the entire MedDerm team... truly, you have lifted my spirits and for the first time, have made me feel like there's hope in my insane eczema journey! Tip: Parking is only $1 for every 15 min for the first two hours in the underground parking garage... I was in and out under an hour and paid $3... worth every penny!

Judy Doong, MD was kind, caring and compassionate. She was very thorough, professional and knowledgeable. She performed her procedures quickly and well. She talks kind of fast, but was always very nice about repeating herself when asked. She gave instructions well and was very nice about it. Just what you want from a doctor who sometimes is required to cause you pain to eliminate your skin problems. I would recommend her.

I don't receive regular care at MedDerm, but recently had a wonderful experience here as I sought to have a milia removed. I was pleasantly surprised at how quickly I was able to be seen, scheduled for a consult appointment just a few days following my outreach, after being informed by other dermatology offices in the area that they were booking months out. I was seen by Dr. Doong, who was able to quickly remove my milia that same day. The entire process was so smooth and everyone I encountered - the front desk staff, medical assistant, and doctor - were so friendly and pleasant. I also paid out of pocket and found the price to be quite reasonable. I would happily return if I had another skin issue requiring attention.
