Dermatology Affiliates

Dr. Garling was very observant, kind, efficient and professional. You can rest assured and feel at ease knowing he is a true caring professional. He knows exactly what he is doing. He really cares for his patients.

Dr Garling at Dermatology Affiliates makes things so convenient. He comes to Rock Springs and the appointment process is super easy online. When made, you walk in, sign in, and wait for just a few. Then he comes and gets ya, listens to your concerns, does what he does and he makes my day :)

Adam Garling is a great doctor! Iv been seeing him for almost 3 years I believe and my skin has improved tremendously. I highly recommend this place!!

This is the first medical appointment I’ve had to cancel because of a lack of accessibility and being too afraid for my health and safety to attempt a ramp- so I can’t speak to any of their dermatology services, because I couldn’t safely get into the building. There was NO mention of a steep ramp regardless of whether you’re going up or down. The ramp is NOT compliant with ADA Minimum Standards for Accessibility. There are big gaps and cracks in both the ramps up & down, along with a 5°-9° grade. The ADA has been around for 34 years, and it’s past time that medical providers take note in order to ensure their medical practices and clinics are accessible to all. Should have seen the red flag when my new patient appointment started at 4:50 and the office closes at 5. Guarantee this clinic would’ve tried the $160-$200 charge/bill for a 5 min appointment with me had I not canceled due to their lack of accessibility.

DO NOT GO HERE. This was the worst medical experience I had ever had. I went in for a cyst removal and when Adam Garling came in, he asked me what i was there for as if he had no knowledge of my file. I explained that i came in thinking he was going to be draining my cyst and he said “yeah i got time today, let me go grab my stuff” as if he was fitting me in to my appointment that had been scheduled for 3 weeks. I went into it thinking he’d be draining it with a needle so when i felt the needle go in, i assumed the process was starting but what i didn’t realize was the needle was injecting numbing because he’d actually be cutting my head open with a scalpel and pushing the cyst out which i would’ve been fine with had he told me in advance what i was going into. So once i heard my head get cut open, i got really nauseous and told him i wasn’t feeling well and he said “yeah that’s normal, you may even start to sweat or pass out” and within seconds i did pass out and when i woke up he was finishing up the stitches. I was so confused and just wanted to get out of there asap so once he was done, i asked him how to care for the wound and he said i didn’t have to do anything so then i asked how soon i could shower and he said to just wait a day and then put vaseline on it if i wanted to. A few days went by and i noticed it hurting more and then when i went to put vaseline on it, i noticed it felt like the wound was no longer stitched. He stitched the outside of the wound with dissolvable stitches so they inevitably dissolved since the instructions he gave were that it’d be fine to get the wound wet. The wound got infected so i am now on antibiotics with a gaping hole in my head because my doctor wont be able to stitch the wound back up until the infection is out of it.
