January 29, 2025Richfedrow F.Verified patient
I will NEVER go back and would not recommend to a friend.
June 30, 2025Marc G.Verified patient
The experience was rushed and impersonal. Front desk staff seemed as though they were not at their place of work. The doctor seemed uninterested in my concerns and spent 5 minutes in the room. The rash that I came in for was said to be caused by the fact that I “have darker pigmentation”. I’m not sure how that is possible if it hadn’t been there for the last 38 years. I will seek a second opinion.
April 14, 2026Vaughn M.Verified patient

January 1, 2026Michael P.Verified patient
Doctor extremely rushed. He barely took time to listen to me prior to looking at my skin. Then, after treating it, without pausing to ask me if I had questions, he opened the door to leave. I said I had a few questions so he paused, in the doorway, and held the door open while he answered my questions quickly, which I thought was extremely unprofessional, and did not respect privacy as a patient. I had gotten a cortisone shot and draining in my groin area and was holding gauze on the area to stop bleeding and apply pressure afterwards (which the Dr instructed me to do) so my hand was literally in my groin with a gown on that was open in the front while the Dr was standing with the the door open answering my questions.
You can imagine I will not be coming back.
December 26, 2025Leah G.Verified patient
I would NEVER recommend this dermatologist to anyone. He does not have a sensitive bone in his body. He has horrific bedside manner and rushes you so much. He ignores any of your comments doesn’t let you speak and gets angered if you question any of his methods.

November 10, 2025Shehryar A.Verified patient
Top notch physician. Extremely professional and very knowledgeable. Does not like to medicate without first trying to deal with the issue through creams and ointments with less side effects. He deserves a five star review.
October 26, 2025Harvey K.Verified patient
All good. Would definitely recommend.
October 1, 2025Richfedrow F.Verified patient

September 9, 2025Ella S.Verified patient
The garage is smelly and dirty and hard to drive around in. The air in the hallways
smells from chemicals and it's not healthy. This doctor used to have a lovely office. I will be looking for a new doctor.

I made an appointment with this doctor as mine was on vacation. He went in for less than a minute, and wanted to rush out of the door, I guess to see another patient. I tried to explain what I was taking and why, but he cut me off. Not interested in listening.
