Our Core Values
When you or your loved one comes to Phoenix Surgical Dermatology Group, rest assured that everyone from the first person to the last you meet has these objectives in mind.
1. Do the Right Thing, Always
What it means:
We act with integrity and put patient safety and trust above everything—even if it’s inconvenient, uncomfortable, or costs us money.
Behaviors:
- We tell the truth, even when it’s hard.
- We don’t cut corners clinically or ethically.
- We protect patient privacy and dignity at all times (quietly greeting patients, never talking over them, never passing sharps over their face, etc.).
- We own our mistakes, fix them, and learn from them.
2. Hungry to Improve
What it means:
We are never “just fine.” We constantly look for ways to improve our skills, our systems, and our patient experience.
Behaviors:
- We seek feedback and use it to get better (from patients, teammates, and leadership).
- We complete our training on time and actually apply it.
- We look for broken processes and bring solutions, not just complaints.
- We learn—from cases, from conferences, from each other.
3. Humbly Confident
What it means:
We bring high standards and expertise without ego. We’re confident in our skills but always teachable.
Behaviors:
- We welcome coaching and don’t get defensive.
- We don’t brag, gossip, or create drama.
- We treat every patient—regardless of background, diagnosis, or insurance—with equal respect.
- We give credit to the team, not just ourselves.
4. Smart Team Players
What it means:
We communicate clearly, read the room, and support one another so the patient never feels our stress.
Behaviors:
- We stay professional and positive in front of patients—warm greetings, smiles, enthusiasm.
- We anticipate each other’s needs in the room (setting up trays correctly, closing the loop on letters/referrals, etc.).
- We handle issues directly with the right person instead of venting or triangulating.
- We think about how our actions affect the whole day’s flow, not just our own task.
5. Own the Outcome
What it means:
If it’s yours, you finish it. We don’t leave loose ends that impact patients, referring doctors, or our teammates.
Behaviors:
- We complete to-dos in a timely fashion (labs, call-backs, letters to referring docs).
- We “close the loop” on communication so no one is wondering what happened.
- When things go wrong, we say, “That’s on me, and here’s my plan to fix it.”
- We don’t say “that’s not my job” when a patient or teammate needs help.
