I went in for a skin screening. Excellent bedside manner, clean modern office, friendly staff, highly recommended. Dr Ginsberg found an irregular mole and very quickly got rid of it. Highly articulate in explaining options and procedures. I will go to him again when I need additional dermatological help.

Overall, Dr. Ginsberg was helpful, and friendly and answered all of my questions. I would have appreciated more detailed information about the medications he prescribed. Unfortunately, the office staff were very unhelpful when I followedup about a prior authorization needed by my insurer after the visit for a cream that was prescribed. I was first placed on hold by the office receptionist for almost 20 minutes and had to call back. I was then assured that the p.a. would be processed asap. However, when I followed up with my insurance provider the following day, they said that they still had not received it.

I get easily frustrated when it comes to doctor visits because they all seem to be a money factory of just pumping a high volume of customers through the door and minimizing face time. I really liked that Dr. Ginsberg tookhis time to listen to me and explain all of my concerns in detail. I really appreciated that. Most importantly, I felt comfortable with him and I would see him again.
