Patient review summary
2.00
The reviews of Dr. Kessler's office present a mixed picture. On one hand, patients appreciate Dr. Kessler's expertise, especially in dermatology, with some highlighting positive experiences regarding minimal scarring and friendly interactions with both the doctor and staff. They note improvements in wait times in recent years and recommend him for skin-related issues. However, significant concerns are raised regarding the office's communication and administrative inefficiencies. Patients frequently mention long hold times, difficulties in reaching live staff, delays in prescription processing, and voicemail mismanagement. In some cases, issues with incomplete procedures and poor pain management were cited, leading to dissatisfaction and a switch to other providers. The recurring administrative challenges, especially related to communication and prescription handling, seem to be a major source of frustration for many patients.
