Partner Testimonials

We started Surgical Dermatology Group in 2009 with 1 surgeon, 1 mid-level and 3 offices. Since then we’ve grown to 9 locations throughout AL with 8 physicians and 6 mid-level providers. We partnered with AQUA in February of 2023 in order to have a capital partner for continued growth and expansion. This is a platform with high density and vertical alignment beyond the subspecialties of dermatology. It has been the perfect culture fit for our practice because of the high work ethic and posture of service as set forth by the exceptional executive leadership. I am very optimistic about our future with this partner.

It is deeply exciting to become part of a growing network of like-minded practitioners that will offer our patients the enhanced resources that will improve their care options. We look forward to being part of the AQUA team.

Mark Chastain, MD of Skin Cancer Specialists, P.C.

The decision to partner with an organization did not come lightly. I knew that it was time to take my practice to the next level, and it was imperative to find a partner that valued the same foundation that I built my practice upon…. Quality care, putting the patients at the center of decision making, and treating our patients and team like family. I found that partner in Water’s Edge Dermatology and the AQUA Dermatology family. I have complete confidence that the business side of my practice is run by a leadership team who are experts in compliance, billing and coding, HR, IT, payroll and all the backend management tasks necessary to support and grow a medical practice. I could not be happier with my decision to partner with Water’s Edge Dermatology and am proud to be part of the AQUA Dermatology family. I know that the integrity of my brand and practice will continue to flourish and grow in this supportive environment.

I owned and managed my 3-doctor practice for over 30 years. Since joining AQUA Dermatology the day to day running hassles have been removed. It has allowed me to focus on what’s important to me, taking exceptional care of my patients.

My partnership with Waters Edge has been amazing on many levels. The stress of having to run a business while practicing medicine has gone away. I have great teams of people who handle HR, payroll, IT, 401k and healthcare to name a few. I can focus all of my attention on caring for my patients. I also love the culture of individuals here from the top down and am proud to be a part of this wonderful organization.

As a seasoned dermatologist who had built a prospering practice for over 30 years, partnering with Riverchase allowed me to solidify my financial future. At the same time, I became free of the burden of practice management, compliance, and the ever-increasing technology requirements of the modern dermatology practice. More importantly I have been able to focus my efforts on what brings me the most professional fulfillment and joy: caring for the needs of my patients.
