I had one appointment at Asarch Dermatology which lasted less than five minutes. It was for some dark spots on my face and the physician's assistant I spoke to said all she could do was recommend a prescription cream. For that they charged me $178 which is ridiculous. I wouldn't recommend Asarch to anyone.

Dr Asarch and his team are the best of the best! I had MOHS surgery back in August 2019 and the experience was top notch. Because I have insurance through the Colorado Health Exchange, it took me a while to find a dermatologist who does MOHS who was in my network. Dr Asarch's team worked with me to coordinate everything behind the scenes with my referring doctor and my insurance. They are super to work with and I am now cancer free!

Asarch Center was recommended to me, and has exceeded my expectations. I worshipped the sun for years, and unfortunately my skin suffered. I have been impressed with the knowledge of Dr. Asarch and the staff who took the time to ask me questions and then customized my skin health plan. I felt like they cared about me as a person and really listened to my health concerns. I have been very satisfied with the services I have had performed at Asarch Center and my skin is looking better than ever

A couple months ago I went to see Dr. Asarch because I had a rash on my stomach and back. I felt like I had bugs crawling on my skin. Dr. Asarch looked at my rash and said he didn't know what was biting me. I asked him if he could do a skin culture to find out what it was and he said," No, I'm not going to do that!" He then handed me a bottle 0.06 of Cordran Lotion and walked out of the room. Very rude! My GP requested I see a different Dermatologist. I was diagnosed with Grovers disease!
