Overview

Joree has worked at Children’s Wisconsin since 2002 taking care of infants, children and adolescents with a variety of skin conditions and diseases. She enjoys helping families because many skin conditions not only severely affect the quality of life of the child but can also affect the entire family. What drives her most is the interaction with children of all ages. Children are open and honest; and their fears and concerns are all different. Joree believes that some of the greatest challenges and greatest rewards come from discovering these differences and being able to treat their skin disease in a way that is best for each individual. She knows that many times a dermatology visit can be very scary for kids; with the unknown of what is going to happen or from memories of previous painful doctor visits and we try to anticipate their fear and reassure them with techniques that best suit their personality. There is nothing more rewarding than seeing families in follow up visits and hearing how a treatment has helped their child; sleep better, stop itching, have less pain, and feel more self confident.

The provider rushed through the visit and interrupted me when I was speaking and did not hear out my concerns.

Hi, we were a little apprehensive coming to a new clinic for us and seeing a new provider, but we're so relieved once we met Joree and her caretaking team because they were wonderful. They listened to everything that was bothering my daughter and took the time to just research the interactions with different medications that could happen. This was overall just a wonderful bedside manner and we really appreciated it and would make the drive to come back to see her because she was just that fantastic. Thank you.

Great provider and felt comfortable with the care. Would have liked to see more comfort holds being acceptable and comfort measures discussed. Injections were rushed and comfort was not top of mind for the provider.

This was our first appointment with the Dermatology department. We had a fabulous experience, everyone was friendly and knowledgeable. We actually were taken back a little early which was wonderful. We have numerous things to discuss in a short appt and everything was thoroughly covered in a timely but appropriate manner and we left feeling better about every issue discussed. Thank you!!

Joree talked to my 11 yr old in a way she could understand and made sure to address her concerns. She was kind, patient, and gave us her fullest attention for the extent of the visit. Highly recommend Joree!

Joree is great. She calmed my daughter's nerves and coached her through the wart treatment.

We had a great visit. Things were explained to both me and my 8 year old in a way that made him feel involved. Everyone we encountered was friendly and helpful.

There was a lack of communication. A person walked into the room and sat down in front of the laptop without an introduction on who she was and what her role was. It was a little uncomfortable.
