Bella Dermatology

This was my first visit with Dr. Sharpe. My PCP recommended that I have a skin survey and a specific mole looked at. The front desk staff was nice enough (the office was busy so i didn't expect them to do more than was necessary). I was taken back to a room and waited for Dr. Sharpe for maybe 15 minutes. She came in and introduced herself and shook my hand and immediately started looking me over (again, the office was busy so I wasn't looking for any special treatment, but the whole process felt very rushed). After looking at a mole I asked about, i was told "that looks fine, but your insurance will pay to take it off because you're white". ...what? Maybe it has something to do with fair skin, or maybe it was meant to be a joke? But to say that to a new patient within 3 minutes of meeting them and to leave it at that, I was offended. a simple "because you're at higher risk of X" or even just leaving it at "your insurance will pay to take it off" would have been completely acceptable. I even asked the staff at the front desk what my race had to do with my insurance coverage and they just laughed it off. I've already made an appointment with another dermatologist for a 2nd opinion. I won't be back to see Dr. Sharpe.
