Patricia Lucey's Online Review Report Card

I have been seeing Dr Lucey for skin checks for several years. I have found her to be very knowledgeable and caring. I would highly recommend her.

Dr Lucey was very smart, decisive and friendly. I was very comfortable with her bed side manner and glad to have found a personable and smart dermatologist.

Dr Lucey was friendly, efficient, and smart. I appreciated her ability to take care of issues in 1 visit and felt like I was in good hands.

I saw Dr. Lucey in November for a routine skin screen. She biopsied two spots, one was what I thought was a bug bite (result confirmed). Inova gave me an estimate of services at $237, but was billed over $1000. Way overcharged for what seems like unnecessary procedures. Go outside of Inova for skin care treatment.

Dr Lucey is absolutely one of the finest doctores that I have ever worked with. She is absolutely great, communites tremendously and is a top doctor in the Northern Virginia area - an area where many doctors feel that you are a number versus Dr Patrica who looks at every patient with care and compassion. I give her my highest rating!! Thanks! Cliff

Dr Lucey is fabulous; she’s warm, caring, a good listener and professional. Best of all, when she treated several spots and tested two others, I had only the slightest bit of discomfort. We have melanoma in the family, so it’s important to me to have a very competent dermatologist. I have complete confidence in Dr Lucey.

After taking my son for acne treatment to 2 other dermatologists, we finally had great success with Dr. Lucey. He took accurate which is a commitment and she guided and supported us from start to finish. She’s very knowledgeable, has a great straightforward manner.., I’ve sent a number of friends to her with non acne issues and they have been very pleased.

I see her for melanoma prevention. She is thorough and detailed.

A memorable experience - lack of current experience in fields outside "standard" dermatology and skin cancer, prejudging diagnosis, and a random 10 minute internet search led Dr. Patricia Lucey to the conclusion there was nothing wrong. Add in a condescending attitude and a billing issue, and it was time to go elsewhere. Simply an awful experiance.

I have never in my life posted a review of any service, restaurant or product I have received. The first time I met with Dr. Lucey I thought she was smart, decisive and friendly. She recommended laser treatment for precancerous sun spots and unwanted facial hair. Two days after my treatment I have severe second degree burns covering the entire lower part of my face. Dr. Lucey told me I would have two hours of redness and swelling and then I'd be fine. Several hours after the therapy I noticed large red and brown burns with blisters forming. I called the office and was told there was no way to page or contact Dr. Lucey (what?). I was asked to come in to see the physician's assistant. She immediately called Dr. Tamjidi, the head of the office, in to see me. Dr. Tamjidu put me on a prescription topical steroid, an antibiotic and an anti-Herpes medicine bc the burns can cause cold sores. I will go see Dr. Tamjidi in a week to determine next steps but at this stage my entire lower face has extremely visible burns like a hot iron was taken to my face. Dr. Tamjidi told me that Dr. Lucey should have used a 30-35 level setting with the laser, and records showed that she used a 75. There is absolutely no explanation for this doctor ruining my face. What is possibly even more insulting is that I'm two days out and haven't received a phone call, an email, or anything from Dr. Lucey. Abominable. If you would like to see photos of my completely destroyed face please message me.
