Patrick Blake's Online Review Report Card

Easy to make an appointment and follow-up arrangements. Dr. Blake and also all his staff are exceedingly friendly and helpful. More to the point, the treatment in my case was difficult, but "he never gave up" (his words). I'd recommend him to anybody.

Dr. Blake is knowledgeable and has a pleasant, professional demeanor. He is genuinely concerned about his patients' health and that counts for a lot.

My husband and I both went for check-ups. I was told that my little brown spots were nothing to worry about, but husband had a little surgery to remove a precancerous mole. Thus three visits so far for the both of us. Everything was smooth and easy, and all staff, nurses, receptionists and Dr. Blake were very friendly, efficent and professional. Before we left, our prescriptions had already been sent to our preferred pharmacy and we were given ample supplies for wound care as well as sample product for a complaint about itching on my legs (possibly due to spider bites from gardening in my friend's neglected backyard). I highly recommend Dr. Blake and all of his staff. And appreciation also to Dr. Joseoh Caperna, our primary physician who referred us to Dr. Blake and also to several other specialists, all of whom have far exceeded our expectations.

Dr Blake is the best! He's really personable and offered a variety of solutions for my concerns. I also got an appointment really quickly and his staff was friendly and efficient.

Dr. Blake and the staff at MedDerm is amazing!I've suffered from psoriasis for over 15 years - since I was a teenager. I've seen multiple dermatologists who try multiple treatments. When my insurance wouldn't cover a medication, I was put into a clinical trial.He and his team at MedDerm were the first people to not give up. When my insurance denied coverage for Humira - a medication I had previously taken, they sought out an alternative. They reached out to the Taltz Together program on my behalf. My insurance doesn't cover the drug, so the program allows me to pay $25 for each injection.I'm really grateful to them. I would definitely recommend them.

In a few words, Dr. Blake is the most empathetic, skilled, and compassionate doctor I have ever met. After many years of dealing with untreated eczema (as I was previously misdiagnosed by several other physicians), Dr. Blake provided me with an accurate diagnosis and highly personalized treatment. During each of my visits with him, he spent a considerable amount of time connecting with me, hearing my concerns, and clearly communicating his treatment plans. I really like that he always seems confident in his decisions and responds with immediacy to all of my questions. Nowadays, it's so difficult to find a doctor who actually seems focused, honest, and respectful--but he definitely surpassed all of my expectations in this area. Thank you, Dr. Blake!

Dr Patrick Blake and all the staff are terrific! My other half had a tiny but suspicious spot (angioma) that was evaluated and excised in the same visit yesterday. Dr Blake is so thorough and explains everything so well. Top notch.

Just got a Lumeka? Lumecca? IPL at his office - no upselling and he listened to what I wanted - to get my hands and face looking better. He bundled in some topicals which have also improved my skin texture. He is very relaxed and really helped me get through my first procedure. It's getting harder to get in but I guess that's what happens!

I'd like to offer my highest praise and recommendation for Dr. Patrick Blake. Upon my first visits, I received effective topical treatment for my prominent melasma/ discoloration on my forehead which has since resolved. Later, I expressed my concern about this furrow line between my eyebrows for which Dr. Blake offered Botox. He did an excellent job administering Botox as well as IPL laser on my face. I had great results after the laser as my pore sizes had markedly decreased and my skin looked healthier than ever. Notably, Dr. Blake was incredibly considerate of my low pain threshold and took extra steps to make me feel more comfortable and calm during the laser procedure. He was gentle, confident, efficient and has a pleasant bedside manner. I'm grateful for his thorough care and would recommend Dr. Blake without reservation.

Dr. Blake's thoroughness meant the world to me. I appreciated his bedside manner, confidence with my diagnosis and his support through the excision and follow-ups. He also did a phenomenal job treating my acne and rosacea. Would recommend him to a friend. I will be loyal to this doctor so long as he stays in the North County area! Thank you, Dr. Blake!! My only complaint would be the front office lady with the tattoo on her face. She was intimidating and unprofessional and a bit rude.

I loved Dr Blake at Poway Dermatology and was disappointed to find he is no longer there. The practice refused to tell me where he went so I was delighted to find him here and learn he's just over in Encinitas. I will be following him.

I had a really bad experience with my previous dermatologist who treated me like I was just a cash cow and was not excited to go back to one. I was referred to Dr. Blake by my doctor and was really pleased to find someone who actually still cares about his patients. Called me to check in after I had a big skin cancer surgery - then called me himself, again, to let me know it was all out.
