RealFrisco.com would like to congratulate Dermatology Consultants of Frisco for winning our Best of the West Contest in August. We asked you to vote for the best Dermatologist in Frisco and by an overwhelming vote, Dr. Eric Weisberg, M.D. and his team came out on top.

When I sat down with Dr. Weisberg, it was easy to see why his practice was voted #1. It was obvious that his knowledge and passion for dermatology is what drives the practice to daily success.

Dr. Weisberg is a native of Dallas. Growing up in the Preston Hollow area, he attended school at Greenhill School in Addison. After high school, he attended Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia and earned his degree in Economics and all pre-med classes. He completed medical school at Emory University and went on to fulfill an internship in St. Louis at the Washington University's Barnes/Jewish Hospital. He then moved to Dallas and completed his residency at UT Southwestern in the downtown area.

He met his wife in college and with family being a top priority to both he and his wife, they moved to Dallas and started their family. Knowing that he wanted to start his own practice, he began looking in the Frisco area for the perfect place to build. He could foresee that El Dorado would be a main thorough fare in Frisco’s rapid growth.  

As Dr. Weisberg spoke, he told me about his practice and how it came to be and what their philosophies are. It was very clear that customer service is a top priority for them. He and his staff strive daily to go above and beyond to save the patient time and to make sure that they walk away having had a positive experience.

The wait time is always between 5-10 minutes as opposed to many other offices where you end up waiting 30 minutes to go back and another 20 for the doctor to come in. Dr. Weisberg and his team work to make sure that the patient is seen quickly and efficiently.

While customer service is a top priority, the #1 priority is getting the medicine right. Along with Dr. Weisberg’s expertise in dermatology, his physician’s assistant, John Burns PA-C is also very educated in dermatology. What sets John Burns apart from other physicians’ assistants is that he has had training in formally trained dermatology classes. There are only a few of his kind in the country.

Dermatology Consultants of Frisco opened in December of 2007 and quickly became a very successful practice. With the staffs compassion and love for the specialty, it is easy to see why they have been voted #1 in Frisco for Dermatology.

Baylor Frisco ObGyn Doctor commends the Level III NICU Nursery!

I am Pregnant & live in Collin County, so which Hospital has the Best Nursery for my Baby?

As an OB/GYN practitioner in just one hospital, Baylor Medical Center at Frisco, my patients occasionally express concern about the nursery, having heard the hospital down the road was better. Of course, for most patients the level of the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Nursery (NICU) will never be an issue, as their baby will be born perfect.

Unfortunately, what they hear is what is being advertised? ‘So and so said that the big hospital down the road has a Level III Nursery,’ I see it plastered on area billboards. The truth is the NICU at Baylor Medical Center at Frisco is also a Level III Nursery but is smaller, which to me is a huge plus as you really do get to know the nurses and doctors, in addition, any nurse in the NICU could tell you about any baby there. I have experienced this myself as I went in to the NICU to check on one of my babies several months ago and was greeted by nurses who gave me an immediate update on a baby I delivered; it had been slow to transition to breathing air. The baby only stayed in the NICU for two days and when the family came to visit me in the office a week later they had nothing but wonderful things to say about the nurses and excellent care given to their baby.

Concerning the Neonatologists (pediatricians, with fellowship training in intensive care), it so happens the Baylor Medical Center at Frisco’s Neonatologists are the same physicians who cover the bigger hospital down the road. I also know that there are different levels of Level III NICUs according to the American Academy of Pediatrics.

I was reminded of this recently when one of the first patients I delivered in Dallas came to see me for her second child, now two years later. She delivered at Baylor downtown (Level III NICU, academic institution, nationally recognized) and the baby was diagnosed with meconium aspiration syndrome (baby had a bowel movement in utero). For two days, I visited the family, baby and spoke with Neonatologist daily. On day number three, the Neonatologist said the baby needed to be transferred to Children’s Hospital for ECMO (Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation), a specialized respiratory machine only available at Children’s, obviously a higher Level III Nursery with more experience. The baby was transferred and I spoke with the parents daily. Two days after the baby transferred, it was off the ventilator, it did not require ECMO and was ready to go home. Where would be the best place to have your baby if he or she was sick in Collin County, a children’s hospital, like Children’s Hospital of Plano.

Like everything I do in guiding my patients as a medical professional, I always practice as if each patient was my own family member. I could have privileges at the big hospital down the road, but why? Baylor Medical Center at Frisco is a women’s hospital that delivers babies and does elective surgeries like the da Vinci robot-assisted hysterectomies, that is it. There are no adult medicine floors with chronically ill patients, medical or surgical intensive care units. These locations often carry with them the worst, most resistant bacteria known to medicine.

So the next time someone tells you to deliver at the big hospital down the road because of the Nursery, think again. If your baby needs extra help from the Level III NICU at Baylor Medical Center at Frisco, you are in good caring hands. Oh, one more thing, if your baby should require additional medical care, it will be transferred to Children’s Hospital of Plano, which is where I would want my child to be.

I hope this article was instrumental in allaying any fears about where you should have your next baby in Collin County.

My staff and I are always available to answer questions. Just like many of you, my family was new to this area, less than two years ago. If you need advice like, who is the best specialist or primary care doctor? Feel free to give us a call (972) 668-8300. Frisco Womens Health is a family oriented office where we treat everyone like family, and no, we do not have any financial investment in any medical facility.

To your continued health,
