I saw Doctor Sumayah once since I've been to her office. I ended up having another doctor as a regular. She is amazing nonetheless. The office is clean, and her staff is nice. I would recommend.

I've been seeing Dr. J fr years. Her office managers have acually gotten MUCH better (or maybe changed altogether), so the wait time has drastically decreased. Dr. J is one of the more digital saavy docs that I see, so it's really easy for her to look up my records, send in percription info to the pharmacy, etc. Very easy!

The results after my visits were awesome and I keep getting complimented and have informally referred her to friends. I do think her bedside manners could be better though. Other than that, I think you'll get great results with her.

My first trip to a dermatologist ever--which I was very nervous about--turned out to be completely painless. Everyone in the office was incredibly friendly; overall, a great experience!

I have seen Dr. Jamal several times and I am always irked by her bedside manner. She is condescending, always in a rush, judgmental. And she is always trying to get me to buy $40 cleansers and scrubs, knowing full well there are comparable products out there for less money. The office is clean and I rarely have to wait. I adore the nurses that work there and wish they could be the only people I have to deal with - they are sweet, upbeat, understanding and patient. But it's time to find someone else.

Dr Sumayah had a great way of explaining what my skin condition was, what caused it and what I could do to prevent another flare up. She is friendly and professional, and also has flawless skin, which is always reassuring in a dermatologist. I highly recommend her to others.
