I miss [...], but Dr Salkey seemed good during this first check-up.
March 2023
Dr. Salkey is very detailed in her physical assessment plus in attempting to determine cause of condition. She spends time in discussion of treatment options and patient teaching. She is definitely a clinically oriented dermatologist rather than cosmetically which is very refreshing. She never discusses Botox etc. She knows you as an individual.

Excellent, painless surgical procedure.

She was poised, pleasant, and cheerful, did not seem particularly concerned with my rashes. She spent the alotted time, wrote a prescription and said " see you in a year". Period. I liked her, but felt she was "just doing her job". I would have liked her to be a little more curious about all the different (non-cancerous) warts and rashes .

March 2021
I am always impressed with the Dermotologists at VCU Health. This was my first visit with Dr. Salkey. I really appreciate her attention to detail and her clarifying questions. She made sure she was not making assumptions, and really went out of the way to ensure that I felt heard. She explained her recommendations in the detail that I wanted, and did not overload me with medical jargon. I immediately felt comfortable when she walked in the room, as she has a calm, confident spirit. I struggle with anxiety, and often feel shut down by providers when discussing how my mental health is affecting the problem at hand. Dr. Salkey is a model for how mental health should be addressed medically. She spoke openly about it to me, but did not blame all of my problems on my mental health or make it seem that I was not "trying hard enough" to "get over it". She looked at my recent labs to see if they had any insight for her, making it clear that she had done a good chart review before she saw me. Dr. Salkey is the epitome of STAR service, and should be praised.

I would not drive to Stone Point [...] if I did not hold Dr. Salkey it the highest regard. She was my doctor in Norfolk, before leaving. I two other large dermatology groups and did not receive the same level of care as I had from Dr. Salkey. I am happy to say that VCU Health allows her to provide her high level of care and spend needed time with each patient.
