I drive a long way to see Dr. Berger. She is a wonderful doctor and I am grateful for her excellent care.
Verified patient
My visit with Dr. Berger went exceptionally well. The check in took less than 10 minutes which may vary between patients that are well versed with using an iPad. Dr. Berger was clear and concise with what she said what she'll do and look at. I didn't feel awkward about speaking up about a concern I had.

It was my first time seeing her and she was so knowledgeable! She was able to diagnose some skin issues I've had for years that my previous dermatologist has never been able to. Huge relief to have answers and be able to make a plan for moving forward. Could not recommend her more.

Doctor Berger was so friendly, she spent time with me, and was fun to chat with. She is a great doctor and I'm happy I found her as I will now go there for all my skincare needs.
I was in and out in under 20 minutes for my skin screening, and now have a little more peace of mind over my general well being. Thanks!
Dr. Berger and her staff are fantastic. She is friendly, knowledgeable, and takes the time to answer any questions you have. A huge bonus: I've seen her a few times and she and her staff have always seen me right on time.

The most BEAUTIFUL offices, the BREEZIEST check-in. Dr. Berger FAR exceeded my expectations of any doctor; first with her general demeanor, and then with her helpfulness and realness. Love her, love this place. I don’t wish I had more reasons to see a dermatologist, but I wouldn’t hate just going to visit more often. 100/5 stars.
Verified patient
Very knowledgeable and detailed.
Verified patient
I will recommend Dr. Carmen Berger, in fact, already recommended to some of my friends. Everyone was attentive and efficient in that clinic. During the visit I felt taken care of, all my questions were answered and I had a lot of them. Dr Carmen in details explained the course of my treatment, different options along with the prices and pros & cons. There was no waiting. And what I loved, no multiple paper questioners. I had to finish just electronic form, which you can start filling out online before the visit. It’s saves a bunch of time and paper.
Verified patient
Dr. Berger was extremely professional and kind. I really appreciated that she made sure to choose an affordable medication compatible with my insurance plan and diagnosis.
Verified patient
Dr. Berger and the Arboretum Dermatology office staff were great! I arrived on time and was seen immediately. Dr. Berger was very knowledgeable and direct about my treatment plan. I had to set a follow-up appointment in a couple of weeks and her schedule was fairly open/flexible, which was nice. I definitely recommend Dr. Berger and look forward to returning as I start my treatment(s).
Verified patient
Dr Berger seems very professional and knowledge, and I felt heard and sympathized . I feel she is one of the best doctors in Seattle.
Intelligent, compassionate, thorough, and a great listener. In addition, the receptionists and medical assistant were wonderful. Would recommend family, friends and strangers to Dr. Berger for dermatology-related concerns. Also, the office is beautiful, modern, and all my paperwork was completed electronically on an iPad! No filling out papers. So refreshing!

Arrived on time and didn't get seen by the doctor until half an hour after my appointment time. Otherwise, everything was great! Would highly recommend
Dr. Berger was very helpful, professional, and warm. I had a short wait (nothing compared to most doctor's appointments) but she took a moment to apologize for the wait, which I appreciated. She's thorough and clearly a great doctor.
Verified patient
Dr. Berger and all of her associates are incredible. They take great care to listen carefully to your concerns and document all details. They go out of their way to make it comfortable for patients. I was experiencing some light sensitivity and they dimmed the lights and closed the blinds for me. They provide medical advice and include advice on diet supplements and behaviors.
The office is really clean and well-designed. I waited less than a couple minutes. Dr. Berger is super nice and her diagnosis is based on the detailed look on my symptoms. It relieves my concerns.
Verified patient
