Went here for the first time and had the absolute best experience. There was no wait, and I was in and out in less than 30 minutes total. The nurse and FNP both had amazing customer service and were so friendly. The care was excellent and I got all of my questions answered. Going to to doctor is never fun, but it doesn't get better than my experience at Georgia Skin Cancer and Aesthetic Dermatology! Happy to have found such an amazing dermatology practice!

I love Georgia Skin Cancer and Aesthetic. One of my favorite features is that they will send you a text if an earlier appointment becomes available. Every doctor's office should do this. My wait time was minimal since I could fill out all of the forms online. Hope was very professional and quick. We have been coming to them for years and I highly recommend them!

This office created the perfect experience. Everyone was welcoming, friendly, professional and made me feel well taken care of. From the office staff to the assistant to the PA, I couldn't ask for a better experience. The office is immaculate, very conscious of good Covid practices. I wish all doctor's offices would answer the phone promptly, answer questions with a smile, care about their patients and do exactly like this office does. I left another practice that I've been going to and I am so glad I did. I finally found what I look for in the medical profession. High accolades and many thanks!

Experienced a level of care, experience, and efficiency far beyond my expectations. The various portions of my visit were handled by different individuals but the results were melded almost seamlessly. Dr. Campbell worked quickly on my skin cancer and apparently cleaned it out in one run through. Special thanks to Ashleigh who gently handled sew up and bandaging and for her sharing of desired post procedure.

I (Wanda) have been seeing Melissa Cannon for years and just absolutely adore her. She is extremely knowledgeable, professional, kind and just makes all of my appointments as pleasant as they can possibly be. I met Jamie, her assistant for the first time yesterday and she was just awesome! GREAT team, awesome office and they made my experience very pleasant!

We have had all pleasant, encouraging, wonderful appointments with this entire practice. I recommend them consistently to everyone who asks. My teenager started seeing Chris Brune, PA, a year ago, and his skin has become more and more clear with every appointment and step we've taken. He gets so many compliments on his skin as a 16 year old boy! It's truly amazing.
I love that Chris shows genuine interest in his well-being every time we see him and that he has not only prescribed medicine, but has made diet and behavioral recommendations as well. He takes all the time we need and answers every question thoughtfully. We are so grateful.

The office staff was extremely professional and personable. I had to wait about 40 minutes because the doctor was working on another procedure, but he was so extremely apologetic for being late. Dr. Campbell was also very kind, humorous, and compassionate, and so was the rest of the staff working on my procedure. They were quick and efficient, and I was completely at ease while they were working. I highly recommend Dr. Campbell and his team at Georgia Skin Cancer & Aesthetic Dermatology.

The first thing I noticed at my first visit is how pleasant and helpful EVERYONE is in this office. I arrived early for my appointment, because I was accompanying my husband, who's appointment was before mine, but I still didn't have to wait long to be seen. My examination was thorough and professional. I'm awaiting biopsy results and will be seen again regularly in six month intervals, an indication of the degree of my skin cancer prevalence. I feel confident in being treated at Georgia Skin Cancer, and I want to comment again that the entire staff is consistently pleasant and cheerful.

This was our first visit to this practice and it is always a little scary visiting a new physician. This group came highly recommended by many of my coworkers, and I can now join the long list of their VERY well cared for patients. This group of women and men do a fantastic job of making the patient feel like they are a genuine priority. They share information about the concerns in a way that puts patients at ease and in a language that is easy to understand. Jessie led us to our exam room and was so personable and made my 19 year old daughter feel so comfortable with the visit. Melissa Cannon, PA, was very professional, knowledgeable and had a great bedside manner. I will absolutely recommend them to family and friends in the future.
