Dr. Sommerville,

“Please count me as your biggest fan! I am notoriously difficult to please, but you have won me over with your honest approach. I looked young and fresh for my wedding day without having done any surgery! All it took was Botox (fantastic brow lift!), a few syringes of Juvéderm, and new skin care. Unbelievable, but I look forward to going to your office every time. I always leave feeling better about life afterward. It is clear that you deeply care about your patients and respect them. It is refreshing to experience that in a cosmetic arena.”

Danielle, (CEO marketing company)

Dear Dr. Sommerville,

“I came to your office for a spot on my face which turned out to be nothing. During the same visit, you found a skin cancer on my back I never knew I had. Your thoughtfulness and gentle insistence (I did not want to have a biopsy done!), saved my life. Thank you for your caring”

Kelly (attorney and single mom of three)

Dear Dr. Sommerville,

“Thank you for the best Botox results I have ever had. I loved getting rid of my angry frown lines but the gentle brow lift was THE unexpected bonus. I am totally hooked! I look completely natural, yet 5 years younger. I probably should not say this, but your fees for the cosmetic procedures are quite reasonable compared to the Washington, DC competition; yet your bedside manner and results are far superior. I also appreciate that you talked me out of the expensive laser surgery you thought I did not need. Now, that is refreshing.”

Karen (lobbyist)

Dear Dr. Sommerville,

“Your skin care recommendations were the best! The mix of products purchased at your office made my skin smoother and younger looking (I especially love the lipid drops and the chamomile cleanser), but more importantly, freed me from constant flares of eczema. I no longer need to use steroid creams on my face or tons of makeup. My husband keeps telling me how great I look. Thank you!”

Sandra (financial advisor)

“Dr. Sommerville and her Staff are amazing! I look forward to going to her office. Dr. Sommerville is direct, caring, and competent. She is an artist with the fillers because she takes the time and does not rush. My Juvederm lasted a year and the results were amazingly natural. I have referred several of my coworkers to Dr. Sommerville and they were equally satisfied with the results!”

Mary (CPA)

Dear Dr. Sommerville,

“I have severe rosacea and the redness and swelling on my face were a constant source of embarrassment. I have seen many dermatologists prior to coming to your office, took various pills that made me sick, but nothing worked in reducing the redness. You suggested IPL treatments and after 4 monthly sessions, my face is so much better that I no longer have to wear makeup. These treatments were totally worth the expense. More dermatologists should embrace such procedures. I really appreciate how thoughtful you were and how much care you took to ensure the safety of the treatments. Your staff is exceptionally well-trained and polite. It is a pleasure to be a patient at you office.”

Meg (registered nurse)

Dear Dr. Sommerville,

“I am glad that I decided to see you on recommendation from my general doctor. You are the first dermatologist who properly diagnosed my condition and gave me the right treatment. I complement you on your clinical skills, bedside manner, and communication style. I really dislike seeing doctors, but your office is an exception.”

John (real estate developer)

Dear Dr. Sommerville,

“I have had severe hyperpigmentation on my face all of my adult life. I have wasted a lot of time and money on treatments at various spas and plastic surgeons' offices that did nothing. I thought I was destined to wear concealer for the rest of my life. Finally, I found your practice online while looking for a dermatologist for my daughter. I liked the website so I decided to also give you a try. Now, after using the Obagi skin care routine for two months combined with in office Sapphire Photo abrasion treatments, I have dared to go out without make-up for the first time! This has made a huge difference in my life and gave me a boost especially after a painful divorce. Dr. Sommerville, how I wish I had found you sooner!”
