Our family loves Dr. Howard Brooks in Glover Park. He's AA, we're not. We have gone for a variety of medical issues--weird rashes, cancer check, bad acne--and have been very satisfied.

OP here--Shelly Hall had mixed reviews on other sites, and Rosalyn Epps is no longer practicing, apparently. Wasn't sure about Cultura's approach.

I ended up searching here and seeing good reviews for Urvi Gonzales--seems to have strong good education/training and a good bedside manner, and also I work very close by this practice. I scheduled an appt. with her, so we'll see how it goes.

Thanks to those who provided recs.

Wow, didn't think I'd get any immediate responses--thank you!


OP again. Hmm, upon further review, not sure about this guy--website looks very slick and commercial. I want someone who comes at things from a medical, not cosmetic perspective, if that makes sense?


I went here for some laser hair removal. They were pretty unprofessional - always a long wait, with conflicting explanations. The guy who runs it was more interested in telling me about all his famous friends than anything else.
