I saw Dr Shien-Ning Chee at Southderm some months ago based on a general referral to a dermatologist in the shire.
I presented to Dr Chee with several skin issues ( unique and spontaneous acne rosacea on the face, serious and chronic itch on arms, raised bumps, occasional lesions from scratching too much, raised toenails, flaking itchy skin within both ears and horizontal ridges, bumps and black spots on toenails. my history was Ross River Virus.
This Dr led me into a relatively low light room and did not even examine me with a light. She spent only a few minutes listening to me and treated me like I was imagining it. She then charged me nearly $300 to tell me to use QV cream and avoid soap products. She told me to wear nail polish if I was concerned about the appearance of my nails!
I have since visited a second dermatologist with a diagnosis of neuropathic and brachioradial pruritus, psoriasis and Papulopustular rosacea.
Dr Chee did not treat me with any respect and was quite patronizing. Gave me no real examination and charged me well over the scheduled fee to tell me to just wear nail polish and use QV cream!
My condition and issues are now successfully being managed by my 2nd Dermatologist with progressively positive results.
I am appalled by Dr Chee and cried most of the way home from this particular visit.

Approximate cost: $300
