Frequently Asked Questions

  • As a direct care practice, Scott & Co. Skin does not accept insurance to cover any costs associated with your visit. Read more about our model here.

  • Medical services and select products may be paid for using your FSA or HSA card.

  • The direct care model prioritizes the direct relationship between physician and patient by removing insurance from the picture. By choosing not to work with insurance, we have the flexibility to spend much more time with patients and use the best tools at our disposal to take care of them. Read more about direct care here.

  • Find all of our pricing info here. We don’t work on a commission model so we don’t push sales or unnecessary procedures, and we don’t contract with insurance, so you are so much more than just a number in a patient factory. Every one of our patients is a VIP.

  • Upon request we can provide a comprehensive receipt of your services (known as a Superbill) that you can submit to your insurance carrier for potential out-of-network reimbursement. Please note that every insurance plan varies and we cannot predict reimbursement or contact insurers on your behalf.

  • At our clinic you will always see Dr. Scott for your initial consultation, treatment, and any follow ups. Read more about Dr. Scott here.

  • Because of our direct care model, our appointments never feel rushed. The average consultation visit is about a half hour, and procedural visits may range from 30-60 minutes. We respect your time and busy schedule, so you are always welcomed at the time of your appointment.

  • We strive to make the most of your time with us. We can often perform a treatment the same day as your consult, though occasionally we may recommend a pre-treatment regimen for optimal results. Filling out your new patient forms (in your confirmation email and text) at least 24-48h prior to your visit assists greatly in making the most of our time in office.

  • We are honored to meet you soon! Please ensure that you’ve taken the time to fill out the new patient forms at least 24-48h prior to your appointment. If you are coming in for a full skin check or a hair loss consultation, please ensure that your hair is styled in a way that Dr. Scott can examine your whole scalp. For any facial concern or evaluation please arrive with a clean face free of makeup. Please have a photo ID for check in and your payment method (we can also charge the card on file).

  • We kindly ask that you refrain from bringing any guests for your consultation visit. We do approve guests on a case-by-case basis, please discuss with us prior to your appointment. For minors, a parent or guardian must be present.

  • We’d be honored to care for you even if you don’t call San Diego home. Please scroll through this page for more information on our location, travel info, and hotel options.

  • Our location at Hacienda has convenient, on-site parking that includes spaces in the front and back of the building, as well dedicated EV parking on the left side. We have an elevator to easily access the 3rd floor where our suite is located. Read more about our location here.
