BOULDER VALLEY CENTER for DERMATOLOGY

Scored on public evidence you can check yourself. Consultation quality and facility safety are assessed in person, and they are deliberately not part of this number yet: scoring them for the few places I've visited would hold those to a fuller standard than the rest, and being visited shouldn't cost a provider its position.

Annette's take

I haven't been to BOULDER VALLEY CENTER for DERMATOLOGY in person yet, so there isn't one. Everything above is public evidence you can check yourself, which is deliberate. Consultation quality and how a place actually feels to sit in are the two things you cannot score from a website, so I don't write an opinion about somewhere I haven't been.

How this score breaks down

Full weightings and method on the methodology page. Two further dimensions, consultation quality (15) and facility and safety (10), are only assessed in person and are deliberately not included above.

Credentials and medical oversight

Credentials found on their site: DO, MD, NP, PA-C, RN, aesthetician, board certified, esthetician

This dimension carries 20 percent of the score, because in Colorado injectables and Class IIIb or higher lasers are the practice of medicine. Who may perform them, and under whose authority, depends on the practitioner's own licence: physicians and nurse practitioners act on their own authority, while an unlicensed delegatee acts under a physician's. The full picture is here.

Services offered

• Body contouring
• Injectables
• Medical skincare

These are the broad categories this provider's own website says they cover, not a confirmed procedure list. Ask them what they actually offer within a category before you book. Our treatment guides cover what each procedure costs locally and who is allowed to perform it.
