Testimonials
I had a great experience at Central Texas Dermatology. Kim at the front desk was helpful and welcoming and my appointment was quick but thorough and I was pleased that Dr. Halliday answered all my questions and was honest that solving my problems might not be a one stop shop solution (although, I think it has been). Very happy I made it in to see them after years of dealing with acne of varying degrees of severity.

Dr. McDonald is INCREDIBLE. She is realistic about results and always errs on the safe side when doing any procedure or prescribing medication. She has great “bedside manner” and makes you feel like you’re talking to a friend (who happens to be a highly qualified medical professional with expertise and experience). On one occasion a couple years back, I had a slight issue with one of the staff members. When I mentioned the situation to Dr. McDonald, she took it seriously and it never happened again. They are very responsive and focused on patient happiness and care. I have nothing but great things to say about this practice and recommend it to all of my friends. If I ever have to move from Austin, there is a good chance I will fly or drive back to see Dr. McDonald–yes, she’s that good. Normally I don’t leave Google Reviews, but I felt the three star rating from only having two reviews did not do justice to this awesome group of practitioners.
