Do you accept my insurance?
We participate in most insurance plans. For indemnity plans, we will bill your insurance company. For HMO plans, we will bill your insurance if you bring your referral papers from your referring physician. For all others plans, check with your insurance provider to see if we are in their specific plan. In all cases, you must present your insurance card to our office at the time of your visit.
What if I don't have insurance?
We gladly see patients without insurance. Payment for services will be due at the time of the visit.
How much will my visit cost?
That can only be determined by the physician at the time of the visit. It is based on the complexity of your problem and the time it takes to be resolved.
What forms of payment do you accept?
We accept major credit cards (Mastercard/Visa/Discover). You can also pay for your copayment, services, or goods with cash or a personal check.
Do you treat children?
Both doctors enjoy treating patients of all ages.
Do you treat hair loss?
Yes! Our practice treats hair loss in both men and women. As board-certified Dermatologists, our physicians treat a variety of diseases and conditions of the hair, skin, and nails.
Do you offer general skin care instruction?
We are always glad to speak to you about skin care. During your appointment, our doctors can answer questions about keeping your skin healthy. They can discuss skin washing, moisturizing, and sun protection. For the convenience of our patients, we carry a line of skin care products, specially chosen by our physicians to care for patients of all skin types.
I use a shampoo that I bought from Dr. Septon. How can I buy more when I need it?
Our specially formulated products are available to you during any of our office hours. You don't have to schedule an appointment with the Doctor to get it. Just call ahead so our staff can have it ready for you.
Do you perform cosmetic procedures?
We offer a number of cosmetic services, including skin rejuvenation with chemical peels, medications, and BOTOX® injections. We also treat spider veins with sclerotherapy. Call to schedule your cosmetic consultation.
Can my procedure be done on the day of my visit?
The physician needs to evaluate your condition at the initial visit. Sometimes a procedure, such as lesion removal, can be done same-day. In other cases a procedure needs to be scheduled for a subsequent visit. Only at the time of initial evaluation can that decision be made.
Where do you perform surgery?
We perform minor procedures at all of our locations. Major Dermatological surgery is scheduled only at our Libertyville and Buffalo Grove offices.
Where are you located?
We have three convenient locations- in Libertyville on Milwaukee Avenue, in Buffalo Grove on Half Day Road, and in Gurnee on Greenleaf Avenue. All offices have parking lots with handicapped spaces.. (have the city names hot link into the map quest directions for each location)
What are your office hours?
Our doctors see patients Monday through Friday. To accommodate your busy schedule, we also offer lunchtime and evening hours. The office is closed on weekends and major holidays. Please call our office to schedule your appointment.
