This doctor was referred to me by another of her patients and I would do the same.

The doctor was very rushed and I didn't like that. I didn't wait long for my appointment, which was nice, but I would have rather waited and had her not be rushed. She spoke quickly while explaining things as well and she didn't really stop to make sure I understood. She also almost immediately ruled out the problen that my primary care physician said I had. She checked my back very briefly to try and find the problem spot but because she was so rushed she didn't take a lot of time to look/feel for it. I can't say that I loved my experience that day. It would be really nice if she slowed down. After all what's the rush?

Both Dr. Puttgen and her MA (maybe nurse?) that we saw were excellent. was apprehensive about the appointment and she was put at ease immediately. Thank you!!!!!

She listened to me and helped me understand my skin condition and then let me decide if I wanted to leave it be or burn it off. I opted to burn it off so I didn't have to worry about it. I love that she listened to me and knew my peace of mind was important.

Dr. Puttgen was reassuring. She explained what to expect over the next few months, how to use the medication and suggested over the counter items to use as well. She directed the information to my 12,year old daughter which made her feel included and responsible for her skin care.

We were referred to her by my son's pediatrician, whom had concerns about the look of some moles. She only glanced at them and said she wasn't worried. Now I have to take him to a more qualified MD that will actually take the time to listen and look at my son.
