I underwent a treatment for warts with Dr Robert M Melnikoff for about a month. The office environment is very amicable and the doctor sounds friendly.
I discontinued the treatment as I felt application of Podophyllin did not lead to any improvement. It led to severe inflammation on the skin for a week each time after application but did not burn any wart. I called the doctor and also visited urgent care because of severe inflammation. What disappointed me was that the I was never told about the side effects and what to do if they occur. That shows how careless the doctor is? Treatment with Podophyllin is slow and I think it cost lot of time, money and pain. Application of Podophyllin on skin is classified as surgery and that was not informed to me at doctor's office. The surgery cost more.
I have now read about alternative treatments such as laser that seems more effective. I think that the doctor chose the less effective treatment to get more money out of my insurance.
Pros: Amicable enviroment
