"I have never been to the Dermatologist before. I am 57. Dr. Green found 1 melanoma on the top of my head. Set up Mohs Surgery in a timely fashion. Visited Dr. Zerfley for the consultation and a week later we had the surgery. The surgery went smoothly. I had an issue with bleeding the next day so I contacted the on call nurse as it was the Saturday before Christmas. Dr. Zerfley went above and beyond to help me get the bleeding to stop. I would highly recommend May River Dermatology." - January 2024

"I recently visited May River Dermatology and saw Dr. Herb Alexander. The entire experience exceeded my expectations. From check-in to check-out, the process was fast and efficient, and I felt well cared for. The front desk staff were exceptional and had me checked in quickly. The nursing assistant thoroughly explained everything, educated me on prescription use, and discussed pricing clearly. Dr. Herb Alexander was kind and took his time to explain and educate me about the findings during the exam. Overall, a fantastic office!" - May 2024
