About this business
I try to educate patients about which treatments are best for them and offer as full of a range of treatment options as possible. I also like to try to get to know my patients on a friendly basis and have positive visits so they can look forward to seeing their dermatologist and having an ongoing professional relationship that is healthy for them. I often find that by looking at patients holistically and as a physician and not just as a dermatologist, I can help make better diagnoses and offer better treatment options.

Bad from start to finish! He was irritated when I told him I needed a full body check, which I had mentioned both when making the appt and to the nurse to asked pre-screening questions. But wasn't given a gown to change into. He then proceeded to use air quotes when describing the main condition I came in for. Said I was to blame even though I've been dealing with it for 10years! He didn't listen to a thing I said and clearly hadn't read any of the information I had in my questionnaire. Then came the full body check, which w... read more
Entire appointment lasted about 3 Minutes. Was in a hurry and didn’t answer any of my questions.
I had an excellent experience with Dr. Altman. He took his time, listened to my concerns, and provided successful treatment as needed. There was no wait, I was on time and so was he. I would go back again if needed without hesitation.
Be careful with Dr. Altman and Mercy Health! Their billings are outrageous. $400 for a 15 minute outpatient skin exam (they billed me for a 30-44 minute visit and said it is based on the time you check in even though I sat in the waiting room and the exam room for 20 minutes). Another $464 for freezing a lesion. Of course there was no mention of the cost of freezing the lesion before it was done. I have had skin exams every year and never experienced prices even close to this. If you have a deductible to meet you will be pay... read more
Terribly uncaring, bad bedside manners, rushed visit. Will not return
I was referred to Dr. Altman by my primary care physician for a FULL BODY EXAM. Given my family history of skin cancer and recent changes to many markings on my body. I told him just that, as well as about the multiple markings that have changed in color, size, shape and some that are even itchy. He glanced over my arms, chest, abdomen and back. And then told me to come back in two years for a check - BUT TO COME BACK IF ANY CHANGES, and that if anything were removed it would be cosmetic. THEN on my office note proceeded to ... read more

My experience was excellent Dr. Altman and his nurse were professional, friendly, and they made me feel at ease by discussing all my concerns and answering all my questions
I saw Dr. Altman for the first time a little over a year ago for a routine preventative check of my skin and a few moles I was concerned about in particular. I was MOST FAVORABLY IMPRESSED with Dr. Altman!!! He was not just professional and competent and right on time (all extremely important) but he was also a most genuinely nice care provider!!! First, before the exam, he stopped and listened to me and my concerns. He looked me right in the eye and talked to me. And not like "in one ear and out the other" but rather genuin... read more
