This is a very high quality medical service facility. I've been to several places in the Columbus area and these people are so real and friendly and only suggest what services you may really need and let you make the decision. I have had Thermage on my eyes and some laser treatment for my rosacea, all of it successful. I also purchased some products, but I didn't replace because I've decided to go paraben free, and no one has ever questioned me or done more than ask me if I need more product. Dr. Cole-Sedivy is better than a dermatologist, she's a GP. Not only is she more than qualified to be doing what she's doing, she's incredibly personable and caring. She has an assistant, the aesthetician, and they appear to work as a team. It's a winning combination in my book. Geesh all that negativity over $25. Maybe you just can't afford the services?
Pros: Nice people, competent staff.
Cons: Waiting room is really small! Trying to get in and out of the parking lot can be a challenge depending upon the time of day.

They tried to push cheap quality products on me and tried to convince me to get procedures that I don’t need. I went in expecting a valuable consultation with a real dermatologist, but instead paid $25 to speak with a licensed aesthetician who seemed more concerned with making a sale than helping me with my skin. You can speak to a licensed aesthetician for free almost anywhere. Real dermatologists (ones that went to medical school and work at actual hospitals) do not try to sell you anything—they give you honest advice and tell you what will work and what won’t work for you. The expensive products I bought contained the exact same main ingredients that you can find in any acne-fighting cleanser at the drugstore and didn’t even work as well. Monarch Health’s website also states that you will get a “complimentary consultation” but it isn’t true—you have to put down a $25 deposit over the phone before you can make an appointment. If you are considering going here, don’t. Or at least make sure that your $25 “complimentary” consultation will be spent with one of the two doctors rather than a licensed aesthetician. If the doctor seems to be pushing products on you like the aesthetician did to me, be suspicious that something isn’t right and find a real dermatologist at an actual hospital. Even the receptionists were bad—rude and very poor social skills. If your looking for “quality” products . . . save your money and go to Wal-mart. Next time I will be more aware of snake-oil salespeople. P.S. I may not be allowed to write this, but notice the first review posted here is by one of the doctors herself.
Pros: Short wait
Cons: rude receptionist, did not get to speak with a doctor like i scheduled, had unnecessary products excessively pushed on me
