Kranson Blair S, MD

I needed a Dermatologist 2 months ago and I thought I got lucky when Dr Kranson’s office was able to accommodate me the very next day. The doctor DOES NOT take the time to examine what the problem is. He was quick to diagnose the skin irritation I have on my chin. He leaves the exam room before I had the chance to ask any question… so I would end up asking the assistant and of course they don’t know the answer to my question. He gave me numerous creams to apply and ONE MONTH LATER, the irritation on my chin is still not better. So I went back for another visit, AGAIN he did not spend the time explaining my condition. what to do and what NOT to do. FINALLY, I just had enough of my condition not getting better and found another Doctor. What a difference! The new doctor I found was not local but I was willing to travel because of the bad experience with Dr. Kranson’s office. Dr Kranson’s office staff are NOT knowledgeable of their task and is not informed about the results of the test prior to calling the client. IF YOU WANT YOUR CONDITION TO GET TAKEN CARE OF IMMEDIATELY AND WITH CARE… DO NOT GO HERE!

My son developed a very bad rash due to wrestling last week. Our dermatologist that we have been going to for years did not have time for us. I called Dr. Kranson’s office, explained the situation, and they fit him in right away. Dr. Kranson was very thorough, took samples from his skin, prescribed the right medication and even gave me some samples so that I would have the medication right away. His rash completely healed and we will be going here from now on.

Two stars because Dr. Kranson is very nice. However, I think it’s egregious to charge a $ 130 visit for just taking a 1 minute look at my daughter’s rash.
My daughter had a rash and her pediatrician instructed me to put an ointment on it. I wanted a second opinion so her pediatrician recommended Dr. Kranson. Dr. Kranson looked at the rash and instructed me to follow what my pediatrician says and follow up with her pediatrician. He didn’t even offer to do another culture or anything else. What a waste of time!

Kranson charges for follow-​up visits! Patients beware! My mom was examined by Dr. Kranson, and he prescribed a medication for her rash. Her condition did not improve, so over the phone, his assistant phoned in another medication. Her condition did not improve, so he asked her to return to his office. She did, and he prescribed another medication. She was charged for the visit! I asked the assistant, «my mom still has to pay, even though it’s a follow-​uo visit?» His assistant replied he did. Not very ethical, if you ask me!

I consider myself lucky to have found Dr. Kranson. He is an excellent diagnostician, has a pleasant «chairside» manner, and most importantly is an top notch dermatologist.
The office staff is friendly and accommodating. They always fit me in. The field of dermatology has a lot of emergencies! As said here before, the wait times are reasonable, the staff is helpful and efficient and Dr. Kranson is the best dermatologist I have ever seen. I can’t praise him and his office enough. Five stars are not enough!

Due to my pregnancy and hormonal changes, I started getting a growth on my ear, almost like a blood blister. My general doctor put a referral out to see a dermatologist and I met with Dr. Kranson. The office was clean, the staff was professional and best of all Dr. Kranson was awesome! He has great bedside manners, he is generous with his time and informative. He took all my anxiety and fear away just by how he diagnosed and how he treated the growth so quickly and efficiently. That was about 3 months ago and my ear healed up perfectly! I had such a great experience that I made another appointment with him to treat little bumps around my eyes. He again took the time to diagnose what it was and also took the time to take a look at a whole other issue that I didn’t make an appointment for. What I appreciate most is how he didn’t automatically go for the aggressive approach to treat my issues with surgery or removal right away like other dermatologists would have done to make more money. He gave me FREE topical medicine to treat my problem areas and recommended that if this approach doesn’t have an affect, than if I so choose– we can go for the more aggressive approach. It’s a breath of fresh air to know that not all Doctors are out to get your money. I also want to note that the nurse, Brenda was also amazing. I spoke with her over the phone and she took the time to hear about my concerns and explained what the Doctor might do and explained pricing. I will continue to be his patient and I recommend him to anybody!

Been looking for a dermatologist in the area and found Dr. Kranson. Very nice bedside manner and listens to what I have to say. Office staff is also pretty efficient and wait times are reasonable. If you’re looking for a derm, I recommend him.

One of the best doctors I have gone to in my life. My bother and I are both scared to death of needles and pain. Dr Kranson explains everything in detail and you can ask questions. What a breath of fresh air. The staff is nice and friendly. The doctor also never rushed me… I had several things done to my eye and skin tags removed. What a professional doctor and staff! If you want the best dermatologist in the country then please go to a pro like Dr Kranson.
Thank you for taking such good care of me and brother Bob. We appreciate everything you did for us and the procedure was almost painless.
Sincerely,
Bobbi and Robert
