Felt like Dr. Michael listened to my concerns, had extensive knowledge and experience of what he was doing, and I look forward to seeing if I get the results he said I would be able to get with the prescription & skin care products he recommended & provided to me. He was a very nice guy and I enjoyed his ability to understand my lack of funding, without me really having to say much.

I booked my appointment online, received 2 followup text messages letting me know that my appointment was confirmed, received a reminder 2 hrs. before my appointment. Showed up, was greeted by a super nice receptionist and everything was ready. He saw me 5 mins. after I got there. It was literally the easiest, fastest, most pain free booking/appointment I've ever had in my life. I was in and out of his office in 20 mins. If his diagnosis is accurate, his score goes from a 9/10 to a 10/10 in my book.

I made an appointment to see Dr. Michael after noticing a change in a mole; two days later I was in his beautiful office. After a quick but thorough screening my mole was removed and a prescription for my previously undiagnosed acne/rosacea was in hand. Dr. Michael is friendly, funny, professional and reasonably priced! My husband is going to go see him now too!

Fantastic and relieved. Relieved because I had a couple discoloration marks on my back and side that I had been concerned about for the last few years. I saw a dermatologist about 10 years ago, and they didn't tell me much. Dr. Michael told me what i had within 5 minutes and gave me some great insight into recommendations. He was extremely knowledgeable and why I felt relieved. Some doc's I feel like they are going through the motions, and not really paying attn to me. He does talk fast, so listen carefully :) But a good beside manner. Overall fantastic visit.

I'll see if my treatment works in a few weeks but I would say that my only challenge with Dr. Michael is that he forgets that while he is used to dealing with hundreds of patients and their issues, my issues are very personal to me and I felt EXTREMELY rushed.

Reception desk, nurses and Dr. Michael were all wonderful. Unfortunately, when I showed up for my appt. the product they needed to use on me was out of stock so I had to leave and go back in an hour. Once I got there again my wait was less than 30 minutes and the procedure went as planned.

I really enjoyed my time at Dr. Michael's! His office is very trendy, and gives off a a calming, spa like vibe. I usually don't really care for doctors offices, but I would gladly spend hours in there! Dr. Michael is also very professional, and totally knows his stuff. He prescribed me a lot of medication to get my eczema under control and it is obvious that he knows what he's doing. I totally recommend giving him a try.
