Please note: Northside Dermatology operates as a facility supporting dermatologists. While the clinic handles administrative tasks like scheduling and billing, doctors independently manage their patients and clinical decisions. This setup establishes a contractor relationship, where doctors are not employees but partners in providing healthcare services. Additionally, doctors have the autonomy to choose their working days, times, and fees, and they may also offer their services at other locations. Patients have the right to access their clinical notes and discuss the most suitable location for consultations or treatments with their doctor.
