Patient Reviews
Jul 07, 2022
Dr. Backe has been my dermatologist since 1980. He always seems glad to see you and just has a way of making you feel better just by talking about what ever skin troubles you were having. He really seems to care about his pashients but the most important thing by far would be that he always knew what to do and resolved so many of my skin problems. I never liked having to go to the Dr. for anything but I was always was glad to see him
