Center for Dermatology and Aesthetic Medicine

I had a very disappointing experience with the billing practices at Center for Dermatology and Aesthetics. Despite having active insurance at the time of my visit, an alleged balance of $16.31 was referred to collections without proper notice. Escalating a matter of this size to collections, particularly without confirming accurate billing and insurance handling, is deeply concerning. When I received the collections notice, it listed an incorrect address, which raises serious concerns about the accuracy and diligence of their billing process and whether any prior notices were properly issued at all. I contacted the practice directly to dispute the charge, request proper documentation, and ask that the account be recalled from collections, but received no response. For a medical provider, this lack of accountability and failure to address clear administrative errors is unacceptable. Patients should be cautious and closely review billing and insurance handling.

I recently had the AlmaHybrid laser treatment (April 28th). Today is June 26th and my skin continues to improve. I can’t say enough about Dr. Kalimullah. I actually fell asleep during the procedure. He was gentle, informative and very easy to talk to. I’ll definitely return for all my dermatology needs!

I had very high hopes for this establishment and the procedures I received. I understand there is always fine print that results are not guaranteed and vary with the patient. However, for spending thousands of dollars for scar treatment (CO2, subcision, and TCA CROSS), my results were minimal at best. Upon returning to consult, they recommended a repeat procedure. Altogether, both sessions would've equaled nearly $10K, which is impractical for the layperson. So disappointed.

I have had an excellent experience with CDAM. I see Dr. Kalimullah, who has helped me enormously with treating problem areas/acne I didn’t think could be resolved. The whole office has a great vibe, and they truly mean it when they say you can reach out with any questions (I have, and they always respond and are always helpful). I am so so happy to have found this office, and know that I will be getting excellent treatment whether it is cosmetic or medical. I have recommended CDAM to multiple friends and they have all been just as satisfied.

I've been to a lot of dermatologists in Chicago and let me tell you, Dr. Cavanaugh is amazing. I recently got my filler and botox done here and I have a serious phobia of needles. He and Christina made the entire experience so pleasant - I can already tell the results are AMAZING. I've also gotten ExcelV Laser done with Jennifer - I can't wait to start seeing results from that as well. I will 100% continue to come back for all my dermatology and aesthetic needs. If you need a kind, knowledgeable dermatologist that actually takes the time to understand your concerns, he is your guy. I'm so happy and can't wait to continue to work with him in the future!

I got a very short notice appointment with Dr. Kalimullah today for an urgent issue. He and his assistant were extremely prompt and gave clear instructions about the procedure and aftercare. I am going back for a full body skin check in a few weeks and will certainly consider using them moving forward for any aesthetic/cosmetic needs. It’s nice to find a practice with awareness of different procedures that isn’t just focused solely on treating medical complaints.
