Clean, modern, and organized office with attentive front office staff set the tone for my visit. Dr. Bray and immediate staff were friendly and professional. Highly recommend.
I think I have been to every other Dermatologist in Alexandria - and even several in DC. Dr. Bray is hands down the best. He diagnosed something correctly that many others missed and his bedside manner is very open and calm. And, his office waiting area is nice, receptionists much nicer and more friendly than most doc offices. Seems very efficiently run. 5 stars for sure!

Verified patient
It was a wonderful visit.
Professional, competent, and a very nice guy.
When I come for my appointment, Dr. Bray always knows how to treat a patient. I have had acne issues all my life and it gets frustrating but when I come for a visit Dr. Bray always know his information and what to medication to give a patient. Also, all the staff at the office is wonderful from speaking to the front desk staff and medical assistance/staff.
The office seems to be run efficiently, and I feel as if my time was respected. I was seen relatively soon after my appointment time.
Verified patient
A bit of a wait, Dr. Bray was nice and the staff was professional. I like that you make your appointment in the back instead of having to go back to the receptionest.
It was my first visit to a dermatologist so I wasn't sure what to expect and I have no other doctor visit to base it off of. But I felt a bit rushed and wasn't sure if he was actually checking for anything. I'd turn for a look and he'd say right away, "yep good there too". I also felt he was looking at me as a young alarmist. Although I try to take the right precautions, I spend a lot of time in the sun for work and my family has history of skin cancer. I want to make a dermatologist visit a part of my annual check ups but I'm not sure I'll be going back to this doctor. I also felt that maybe this office was best for people who want reconstructive remedies such as botox, varicose vein removal, etc.
Verified patient
Dr. Bray is always incredibly attentive and thoughtful. He never rushes during the appointment and does not jump to conclusions before you've finished explaining your problem. He is honest about potential side effects or how well a given prescription should work as well. I always leave feeling heard and encouraged.

I'm a new patient - today was my first visit. Dr. Bray was very professional, nice bedside manner, and competent. He noticed some sun damage but didn't lecture me, gave me a thorough scan, didn't try to oversell me on any procedures, and didn't seem to be an alarm-est. I felt very welcome, and his cheery disposition was most appreciated!
