Patient Reviews for Dr. Eric Schweiger - MD
Very friendly and helpful advice.
LISTENS TO PATIENTS CONCERNS AND CARES.
Great staff, very efficient, comfortable and pleasant visit. Highly recommend!
The staff is so friendly, kind and helpful! The office is lovely, very sleek, modern and clean. Everyone seemed genuinely concerned with helping me, and went out of their way to make sure I would be getting the treatments that would work best for me. Awesome!
It was great
Very professional and easy to talk to! Nice, supportive staff.
I was extremely impressed with Dr. Schweiger and his entire staff. I'm hoping my results will be just as fantastic.
He was very nice and professional - Brooke Studley was also amazing and very friendly and thorough. I would definitely recommend both of them!
Front desk clerks amazing! Dr Eric Schweiger ,swift and very helpful,Brock must be his assistant found her to be very helpful as well ,Thanks i will see you in 2 weeks ,Already recommended a special friend
It was a great experience! I am struggling with adult acne which has put me in a low place and at times feeling depressed. I felt very comfortable talking to Dr. Eric Schweiger and to Brooke Studley (she's the best!!) They understood how I felt and were very compassionate. I can't wait to see my final results!
Pleasant atmosphere, relaxed environment. Very professional and amicable doctors.
went very well so far . I need to heal from the laser treatments to see the result..will take weeks I think.
Dr Schweiger was great!! He had an answer to all my questions and was able to solve my problem. I felt very comfortable with him and his staff.
I was a patient at his old office. Dr Schweiger's new office is beautiful and I was seen right away! I am happy that I followed Dr Schweiger to his own practice and appreciate that he remembers me and my medical history.
I have had chronic issues with rosacea and had been previously treated to no solution. Dr. Schweiger's immediate remedy worked instantly. His recommendation was to treat the ance from the rosacea and then focus on the other issues assocated. I am very pleased and will continue to make him my dermatologist!
The dude knows his stuff.
Very straight forward and nice.
the doctors were friendly and gave give me the information i needed
He was extremely impersonal, making very limited eye contact with me during the five minutes he took to see me. There were no explanations in his diagnosis; he simply expected me to accept the prescription he wrote out withought even knowing how it would alleviate the issue. He even started to leave before discussing all of the reasons for my visit. Overall, the experience was quite negative and I have no intention of ever returning.
Very friendly. Great diagnosis process. Definitive answers and treatment. Squeezed me in at the last minute.
The wait was roughly 30 minutes. Not terrible, but not prompt either. The reception area was nice and all the staff members that I encountered were courteous, including the doctor. He provided a range of treatment options. The first treatment will take about 6 weeks. We will see what the results are at the end of that time. I was impressed that the office used electronic filing to request pharmacy information ahead of time....but then I still had to take prescriptions to the pharmacist. After I went to the pharmacy to fill the prescription, I was told that the doctor's office would have to call in the prescription for me because of insurance issues. Since it's a routine prescription, you'd think that the doctor's office would have known that ahead of time. Annoying but not terrible. Hopefully, the treatment goes well and these are just minor logistical issues.
a true pro!
Everyone was very polite and professional.
md schweiger is very friendly and a real professional.
Excellent visit - listened to my concerns and came up with an effective course of action! Highly recommended!
He is patient and explains everything to you! Also, his assistants and staff are all very caring and professional. Actually, I already recommended his office to someone I know!
suggested a best approach in tacking my uneven tone skin and scars. very thankful.
I was very pleased with my visit. Office is clean and bright all personal were friendly - Would recommend highly to anyone.
Professional and accommodating. Great assistants and friendly reception staff. Excellent experience.
The visit went well, however, what made the visit sour was the wait time. I waited for 15 minutes in the waiting room, which is normal, and an additional 50 minutes in the patient room after his physician's assistant performed the initial assessment. Frankly I thought I was forgotten.
I was very touched and amazed. I googled Dr.Schweiger and saw a news interview and felt the urge to try a consultation. I went in for my appointment, there was a message on my cell I did not get to reschedule because the doctor was not feeling well, They serviced me anyway everyone including his assistants are very nice and professional and the medication is working well on me immidiately. I felt very touched not being a patient with a history of coming in for appointments and they serviced all my need and concerns about my skin. My skin means everything to me. It is my pride and for someone to treat me that way, it means that they are really passionate about what they're doing.
Dr.Schweiger and his entire team was very professional and courteous. The office very modern and cool. My appointment was at 10:30am and I was taken inside exactly at that time. After brief questions I had to wait till 11am. Dr.Schweiger examined the problem and knew exactly what he wanted to do. The small operation took about 15 mins without any pain or any kind of discomfort. My next appointment with Dr.Scweiger is in two weeks and I couldn't be more pleased with everything I have experienced today.
They made me feel very welcomed and comfortable during the whole visit! Dr. Schweiger is very professional and has genuine concern for his patients. Well done!
He was very personable and approachable. He was also very willing to listen to questions. I didn't get the same feeling I get with a lot of doctors that you are wasting their time by asking anything.
super professional staff & did the consultation & procedure during the same visit. would totally go back/recommend.
Dr. Schweiger was diligent and extremely knowledgeable. He put me at ease the moment he sat down. I would recommend him to anyone.
Me 100th review placer. nice. Good doctor . experienced. I recommend Dr.E.S to the teenagers who face acne issues. Patient has to of course ask lot of questions , do thorough research to be able to ask Dr. E.S questions. Good staff. No issues with them. After my laser thingy it has now become a waiting game to see how it will turn out for me after few days. jb042011 at gmail
Very pleasant and quick.
rude staff. Incompetent! Good doctor. Seemed to care about my issue and did not push to upsell treatment or products.
Very professional - will continue to visit this practise
Very comfortable/ addressed all my concerns
This Doc is awesome! i would highly recommend him to anyone.
He was awesome!!
Dr. Schweiger is a diamond in a beautiful new setting! As an acne sufferer for most of my adult life, I've seen my share of dermatoligists and he is the best by far. I recommend him highly.
Only my first visit, but I would definitely recommend Dr. Schweiger.
Dr. Schweiger is my hero. I had the fractional CO2 laser and I look 10 years younger. It's a miricle. Thanks Doc.
Great, friendly staff and the doctor was lovely.
Dr. Schweiger is very pleasant and made me feel at ease. All my questions were answered. His assistants were very professional and I particularly like the friendly atmosphere.
very nice, with very nice staff.
Dr.Scheweiger was terrific...... He made me feel extremely comfortable.... His professional approach made me feel extremely confident....Marc
Very nice office, staff, and service.
He was very nice and informative.
very unprofessional office staff, was horrified by the lack of patient confidentiality exhibited in the office
Dr. Schweiger was very personable and very knowledgeable. I will definitely continue to see him in the future.
Dr. Schweiger has cured my daughters scarring acne when other dermatologists could not. He explains options, discusses things in great detail and has a wonderful manner especially with dealing with a teenage girl and an overprotective mother. The staff is kind and professional, we are always seen in a timely manner and although we moved and now have to travel nearly 2 hours to see him, there is no other dermatologist I will trust with the care of my daughter.
Nice office and a nice doctor. Would definitely recommend to others and will use him again in the future.
From a tough critic-Dr. Schweiger is terrific: professional,knowledgeable, understanding, trustworthy and very considerate. Office staff is great, very friendly and efficient. I recently moved to NYC and needed to see a physician asap; appt was easy to book and I was seen in within a matter of two days. Excellent MD, recommended with highest regard!
Highly recommended!
the staff and doctors were extremely friendly and kind and involved. a great practice. recommended!
The service was excellent - very friendly and easy. thank you
Dr. Schweiger is the kindest and most compassionate medical professional I have ever met. He knows his stuff, clearly, but really seemed to listen to and care about my concerns as a patient as well. As a result, I feel confident that he designed the treatment plan that would truly work best for me as an individual.
I think this would be my last visit. They always seem to be in a rush at this place.
I enjoyed the staff. Especially the lady at the desk. It would've had I not felt like I was being rushed off. (the ending) The visit was great until the end. But he seems to be competent.
Seems good..
Excellent Dr and staff. Heartily recommended.
Great guy and did the job.
Nice office, nice and accomodating doctor. All around great experience.
Friendly, Professional. Nice office.
The appointment was quick,and he was very warm and proffessional. Most importantly his staff was polite and warm as well.

Courteous, nice offices, kind staff. In short a very pleasant appointment.
Very attentive and considerate, highly recommend!
