Testimonials:
Dr. Hatch and her team are terrific! Far and away the best dermatology clinic I have ever experienced in my 30+ years of needing dermatology services. They addressed my acute symptoms, and offered several solutions to help my HS, even helping me enroll in a program to obtain medication I cannot afford. Dr. Hatch is as competent as she is compassionate. She has staffed her office with a team of caring, competent front office personnel: people who truly spare no effort to assist with and effectively navigate the tedious minutia of health care bureaucracy designed to stymie the patient at every turn. Because of their efforts as much as Dr. Hatches' my quality of life has improved, my pain is gone, and I can live a normal life where I don't have to think about my hideous skin lesions all day every day. Everyone from Dr. Hatch to the nurses, assistants, and scribes have made it an unreserved pleasure to make Clear Choice Dermatology Silverdale, my dermatology home base. Thank you to the entire team for doing this work, and for the care you've given me. - Real Google Review
