Honestly, wouldn’t go again. Expensive, and he doesn’t listen to your skin concerns. His recommendations actually gave me acne, and then he makes you feel like you’re crazy. Never again

The doctor was great. The staff was friendly too. But this clinic does not keep up with the current technology. There is no online portal. Every communication has to be done via the phone. I wish they could invest some money to digitalize their operations.

Dr. Katchen took the time to listen to my variety of concerns, and took them seriously. He also did a very thorough mole check, unlike my last derm. Thank you!

Dr. Katchen is amazing! He is extremely knowledgable and helpful, and also super patient. He listened to all of my concerns and answered all of my questions. 10/10 would recommend Dr. Katchen and SkinCareLab!

Dr. Katchen and his staff are very friendly and professional. I felt at ease and respected. The doctor was patient and showed great understanding of my issue. He prescribed a course of treatment and has bloodwork done. To my surprise, I received a follow-up call from the doctor less than 24 hours later, to discuss my bloodwork and provide recommended course of action. He’s a good listener, highly experiences, and I felt like he genuinely cares about my entire well being.
