    Are there black professional in Augusta Ga that can help with my skin care. I feel like I was on display when I visit a white female dertomoligst. She had her intern took pictures, I paid for a service that I never received.

    I don't know about Augusta, GA as I live in another state. However, I will say that it is not uncommon for dermatologists, plastic surgeons, even orthodontists to take pictures prior to beginning treatment. These pictures become a part of your file so that the doctor performing the service can refer back to see if the changes are for the better for the patient.

    It's not that they had you on display so to speak, but this is part and parcel of how treatment with certain specialists works.
