My entire family were all patients of Dr Dean for over 20 years. Although for many years I questioned his lack of care and his demeanor to the well being of my family and myself, we kept going only out of convenience and the difficulty of changing primary care-givers. What finally did it for me was, I just had shoulder surgery, I was in severe pain, it was the day before a long holiday weekend and I needed a prescription for pain medication fast. I called the Doctors office to ask for a prescription and was told by his staff that their policy dictates that they have 3 days before they NEED to comply with a prescription request from a patient! I was in severe and was basically told "we will think about it and get back with you next week". My wife then called them and firmly told them my situation, it was relayed straight from Dr Dean - "if you don't like our policy...then you need to go somewhere else"! I have never called this office and asked for anything before and this is how we were treated after 20 years of visits. I also will note that over the years Dr. Dean has now implemented cosmetic services into his practice...in other words - its about the bottom line for this man - your health is not a concern and he could care less. We now have a real primary doctor who cares about her patients. You don't have to take my word for it - there are dozens of patients that feel the same way; anyone who disagrees is either a friend or relative of his. I highly recommend you find someone else.
