After seeing a dermatologist with another group I decided to transfer my care and see Dr Melvani. He spent a long time getting to root of my problem. I did not feel rushed in my visit and he listened to my concerns. It has been one week since my visit and my skin has changed and is looking and feeling so much better!

The doctor made me feel really comfortable and took all my concerns seriously, even those that moved in a more cosmetic direction. I was nervous to discuss some of the issues with a male doctor, but he was so good about listening to me, taking me seriously, and making me feel comfortable, that I felt I could really be open.

Felt listened to, given a clear pathway forward without giving me false hope (was told it can be a bit unpredictable and hard to treat) and without just blaming it on me being fat (which I'm guessing is a big mitigating factor). It's nice to have something to get a little relief while I work on losing weight

Disclosures

Vinesh R. Melvani, MD reported no external professional relationships for calendar year 2021.

External Professional Relationships

Pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies frequently collaborate with basic scientists and physicians within an academic medical center to help advance science and improve patient care. These relationships are important in achieving scientific breakthroughs and in establishing the effectiveness and safety of promising new therapies. In order to assure objectivity in clinical research and patient care, the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine (Feinberg), Northwestern Memorial HealthCare, Children's Hospital of Chicago Medical Center, and the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab have adopted integrity policies that require research and clinical faculty (in full-time, part-time, and unpaid/voluntary categories) to report compensated and uncompensated external industry relationships. Patients are encouraged to discuss these disclosures with their physician as well as to inquire as to how these relationships are overseen by Feinberg.
