Amie M. I got the Miradry treatment done and the whole process was so easy! I thought it might be painful but I tolerated it perfectly. Everyone at Dermatology Specialist of Illinois was so caring and friendly. For the first time in many years my arm pits aren't sweating. Love not having to wear deodorant and LOVE having no sweat marks. :)
Dermatology Specialists of Illinois

Dermatology Specialists of Illinois
Abby M. I've seen so many dermatologists over the years and had never found someone who cared as much about my skin as Marianne and the rest of the DSI team. They are also quick to getting you in for an appointment whereas I’ve waited 2-3 months for other places before. Very responsive when you have a question or concern too! Highly recommend.
Dermatology Specialists of Illinois
Debbie S. I felt cared about and welcome from my first phone call to schedule an appointment, all the way through having some bothersome moles looked at, and a few removed. The overall atmosphere at this office was above and beyond most of the doctors offices I’ve been to in the past.
Dermatology Specialists of Illinois
Sandy C. My husband and I have been patients of Dr. Khana for at least the past ten years. Today, we met with Denise McNatt for our annual skin checks. She took the time with me to address my facial skin regiment and recommended new products. Her assistant, Aimee, was so helpful and sent me home with several samples to try. I highly recommend them! Every staff member that we have dealt with have been truly wonderful.
