Highly recommended. Professional and friendly. Was put into exam room within 5 minutes of appointment time and then had to wait about 15-20 minutes. While at first Dr. Strachan seemed slightly rushed, she was more than willing to answer questions that arose.

She was pleasant enough, but the wait was UNGOOD. Once I was called, they escorted me to an examination room where an assistant pre-interviewed me, taking down my reason for coming on a note pad. Im not sure if this is a means of being efficient, but I would rather tell all my personal information directly to the doctor. After that, I sat there for like 40 minutes waiting to be seen. Once she finally entered the room, she spent 2 minutes with me, thanked me for coming and left. Had there been a lot more time spent with me, I would have understood the 40 minute wait. This is not to bash her, as this was my first visit. Hopefully this was an isolated incident.

I would recommend Dr. Strachan to other patients. But be prepared for long waiting times. Often the office phone is not answered or messages are not returned.

I waited for an hour and ten mins. She seemed quick to jump to conclusions and seemed impatient with some of my suggestions and thoughts concerning my problems.

She seemed rushed to prescribe me meds but didn't take the time to tell me what was wrong with my skin and what to avoid eating, etc. She just looked at me and started writing down prescriptions.

She is one AWESOME professional. I would recommend her without hesitation. I travel from Long Island to see her. She has been a my life has well as hair savior as much as she can. I went to two different doctors for my hair & they continued to tell me that I had a fungus. I decided to venture out for another opinion & Dr. Strachan has found what my problem was from on the FIRST VISIT!

The dr's assistant was attentive and thorough, however I wish the Dr. was the same. She appears sharp and knowledgable but showed that she was in a rush and slightly disinterested in my reason for visiting. She was probably trying to catch up with other appointments (I think the office was running behind because I waited for almost 40 mins). Office was clean and organized. Location is great.

She was really nice and suggested things that could clear up my skin. Very helpful when I had questions. My only qualms are that I waited 10-15 mins for her to come into the office and then she seemed in kind of a hurry as she was leaving. I'm going to keep going back to her.

I would recommend Dina Strachan, MD to any and everyone. She took the time to listen which is rare. What I loved most is even though she sells a line of facial products out of her office, there is no pressure to buy them, along with her product list she gives her recommendation of over the counter items as well.

Our impression of Dr. Strachan is an experienced doctor with thourough knowledge and solid background. She is willing to hear the explanations and gave us her straight forward opinion with meticulous and sensitive manner. My 16-year-old daughter loved her!
