"I had a very pleasant visit with Dr Williams yesterday, 7/22/24 He was kind and informative throughout my appointment and his assistant was very nice as well. Thanks Dr. Williams and staff."
"I enjoyed meeting Dr. Williams. Gave me some options for what I came in for and they are working. Super nice guy. I’d definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a dermatologist.."
"Over the past 45 years I have visited dermatologists in several different states. My primary care doctor recommended Essential Dermatology for a dermatologist. Dr. Williams is the best doctor I have visited over these many years. He understands his patients and knows what is needed to remedy a situation. He is not forceful and gives options to help with making decisions on care. My job caused me to transfer to several cities and schedule appointments with at least 9 different dermatologist. Dr. Williams is by far the best I’ve had the pleasure to manage my care."
"I saw Dr. Cooper this week for the first time for a routine skin check. i had a few concerns. After Dr. Cooper reviewed the spots and examining my skin, he shared his findings. He advised one spot be removed. His assistant prepped/numbed the area, Dr. Cooper returned, and the process was painless and fast. I left with a list of preferred sunscreens, body soaps, detergents, and more. I will return next year for a routine visit. Thank you Dr. Williams for bringing in a kind and caring professional to assist you."

"Dr. Williams is respectful and professional. He has an easy going manner. I moved home and needed a new dermatologist. I'm so pleased that I found him. I've had skin cancer twice.He took his time examining my skin and explained things as he did his examination. I asked him if could suggest any procedures to lessen the appearance of my wrinkles and sun damage. He gave me his advice and explained, very thoroughly, what each procedure was and it's results. I've never had any type of "procedure" done before. I feel confident in Dr. Williams skill and knowledge. He has a wonderful and helpful staff as well. Stephanie H"

"Prior to making an appointment with Dr. Calvin Williams with “Essential Dermatology Group”, the last dermatologist I visited close to my home informed me that the condition which I suffered from was untreatable and therefore recommended that I followed up with a skin specialist in another state. After several days of researching dermatologists near my home, I found Dr. Williams’ office. Dr. Williams reviewed my records and shortly thereafter, started a plan to treat my melasma and within a few weeks, I started getting tremendous positive results. Dr. Williams has been instrumental in helping me deal with my skin challenge. From my first visit with the doctor, he would always make me feel that I would overcome this challenge. I was a bit apprehensive at first, but now, months later with the treatment plan, I don’t have to wear makeup to cover up the melasma. Dr. Williams has made such a difference in my life and I am grateful. Once again, I am very happy and my heart is raging with JOY. I totally recommend Dr. Williams for anyone trying to get the correct treatment for their skin concerns. The doctor’s nurse as well as the receptionists are always very friendly and very attentive answering all of my questions and making sure my next appointment was scheduled before I left their office."
"Dr. Williams is knowledgeable and the staff is helpful and timely. He’s now my go-to dermatologist for all of medical and cosmetic dermatological needs."
"I was very happy & impressed with the staff that I interacted with, Dr Carl Williams & his assistant, Marissa! I arrived right on time, finished a few forms (that I had missed online) no waiting. Was taken into an exam room (clean & bright) and Dr Williams came in moments later. We exchanged a few pleasantries and he asked for the main reason I was there. I showed him a small growth on my arm, he said I’m glad you came in, we need to do a biopsy. Marissa numbed me up (Marissa was great with the shots - took 4 quick injections) Dr came back in after the shots took hold, shaved off the issue & I’ll know in a week - very impressed with the friendly staff & esp Dr. Williams 👍"
"I had been experiencing traction alopecia for a while. My hair would not grow in no matter what I tried. A friend referred me to Dr Williams. I've been going to him for a few months now. My hair is FINALLY filling in. Just do what he tells you and you will get the results you want. Not only that, he and his staff are also friendly and welcoming."
"My first-time experience at this practice was amazing, everyone was extremely polite, and professional. Dr. Williams is outstanding! he is very observant, knowledgeable, and most of all very patient. I appreciate a doctor who listens and allows plenty of time for questions. I left the office with a treatment plan and feeling like I was taken care of. I would recommend this practice to anyone who is looking for world class patient care and exceptional customer service."

"Dr Williams is very knowledgeable and thorough. He asks questions and really seems to care about the patients. I had gone to the same dermotologist for more than 10 years, and NEVER got the care there. During my first visit, he said something doesn't look right. He did a biopsy, once he got the results, HE called me personally and referred me to a surgeon and I had surgery the next week. All because he took the time to really look and ask questions.

"I recently had an appointment with Dr. Williams seeking treatment for a hypertrophic post-surgical scar on my foot after a Lapiplasty bunion correction surgery. I was delighted with his approach. He explained why this happened to my skin and very thoughtfully explained his recommended treatment in a way I could understand. He shared the pros and cons of other therapies and why this would be the best approach. I had another doctor suggest an alternative surgical method that would have likely resulted in an even worse condition. Dr. Williams explained why I should avoid it. I am so thankful that I found Dr. Williams and am now on my way to a better outcome with his guidance. I strongly recommend his services, especially in the area of hypertrophic scars."

"PHENOMENAL! Dr. Williams listened to every last one of my concerns and addressed each one without rushing or making me feel as if my concerns were invalid. I have to see a lot of specialists due to a diagnosis that I have, so I’m a very tough critic when it comes to doctors. He is by far the the absolute best dermatologist in DFW, and one of the best doctors period. My friend raved about him and referred me to him when I told her I was still looking for one and had been disappointed with others. I’m so thankful she referred me. Oh, and his office staff is exceptional as well. If you’re looking for a dermatologist that’s going to listen and investigate and solve the problem, Dr. Williams is the one!"

"Dr. Olazagasti And Dr.Williams are both amazing. Was dealing with a horrible dry red rash around my mouth, nose, and eyes. It would break my skin and make going out so hard. Dr. Olazagasti found the issue which was Perioral dermatitis.Both of them helped so much in healing it. For people who are looking for a Spanish speaker Dr.Olazagasti is perfect. As a Spanish speaker myself, I know that is greatly appreciated by so many people. They are both amazing, and the best dermatologists I meet. Here are some pictures of my rash before treatment, and after the treatment they gave me. I can say I am so much happier now."
