Overview

Services

I am fellowship-trained pediatric dermatologist, specializing in dermatology for infants, children and adolescents. My clinical interests include all things pediatric dermatology. I enjoy taking care of acne, atopic dermatitis (eczema), psoriasis, pigmented lesions, hidradenitis suppurativa, and skin diseases in immunosuppressed patients, to name a few. I have a passion for teaching medical students and residents in and outside of clinic. Global health and access to care (here at home and abroad) is very important to me and is another part of dermatology that I love.

I believe in providing the best possible care for each child, while empowering patients and families to make the best decisions for their children. It is important to me in forming a collaborative relationship between families, patients and their care team.

Great experience, doctor satisfied me regarding my son. Front desk she had hard time to check in, even I was 100% sure about my appointment. She was confused, I don't know way.

Dr. Humphrey is amazing and we couldn't ask for a better doctor and his nurse Karen are the best as well. That's it. Goodbye.

A very timely and effective visit, engaging doctor, listens well, answered all our questions, felt super comfortable with him, really enjoyed meeting him and having him serve as my daughter. And his, I think, assistant that was with him, also very helpful. Yeah, great experience. I would give him a 10 all the way around.

All very well.

The dermatology clinic is always running on schedule which is so appreciated when you have to take your child out of school to attend. Dr Humphrey listens to all concerns and answers them thoroughly. It is always well known that they are easily reachable after the visit of any other questions. Always a good experience at the Dermatology Clinic.

The doc and his nursing team are absolutely wonderful, I have nothing but amazing things to say. Your front desk staff on Level 1, however are so curt, rude and not pleasant people. Please share my feedback with their management

Amazing visit. Thanks so much for answering all my questions and making time for all my concerns.

This provider was 37 minutes behind for our appt. No staff informed us of the delay. The provider did apologize numerous times and I appreciate that but I also find it rude when someone is late as it discounts that my time is equally as valuable as there's.
Mar 04, 2024
We had a great experience, we felt like the provider did an amazing job explaining things to us. We got there about an hour early before the appointment and they ended up getting us in 45 minutes early. We were educated on different treatments that they wanted us to do with our daughter. They ended up getting her into the lab as well. Same day.

Children's Hospital is the best. There are better doctors.

Excellent care, the nurses at the reception are very friendly, I really liked all the support
Feb 12, 2024
The care team approached with building trust of my daughter. Listened to how she wanted to do the appointment (within reason) and ensured comfort care was provided for injections. It happened so seamlessly that there is no doubt this is how they control pain at each appointment. I was worried my child was going to need extra support to complete the injections and after it was done and we weere walking out she said "I liked those people". I could tell for her that meant they took time to build rapport, listened to her needs and took her lead on pace. An experience that could have been painful was approached with such care that my daughter wants to go back for her 6 week follow up visit. Thank you for putting my child first!

Dr. (unreadable) is a very dedicated person, very kind, very conscientious, and his team is an excellent doctor.

Dr Humphrey always sits to talk after the exam. It really helps you know he is willing to listen. He explains his plan and answers questions thoroughly. He doesn't stand a linger by the door, and only stands to exit when the visit is complete and all questions answered. The resident with him (sorry I forgot his name, Dr A) was also very kind and thoughtful toward my daughter. The desk staff is friendly and helps you feel welcome. The nurses/MAs are clearly there to help and offer anything you may need. All around great visit.

It was a smooth experience from the nurses who called to set up the appointment to the girl taking the insurance info. The doctor was absolutely wonderful to work with! He did an amazing job with our son and us too! I'm so thankful that he was willing to see us. He took plenty of time with us too. He really put my mind at ease as well. The nurse working with Dr Humphrey did a great job too. She was very caring and attentive. We definitely had an outstanding experience.

Dr. Humphrey has been my daughter's dermatologist for couple of years now. He did what he said he will do. My daughter's skin has been doing great because of him! He made the almost impossible, possible. We need more doctor like him.

The whole experience was wonderful. Dr. Humphrey was amazing. I would definitely bring my child back to Children's Dermatology. Always felt like you were a priority, seen in a timely manner, and felt like you could come to them with any questions you had after you left. Thank you.
