I was so fortunate to have a long-time friend from out of the area mention her childhood friend was a dermatologist in my town. Just a few weeks later I was able to get in to see Dr. Kleinman. The staff is wonderful, the office conveniently located, and she is fantastic! She doesn’t rush you, is very thorough, and is a really nice person in general. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone!”

December 12, 2022Larry G.Verified patient
I waited over a month to see this doctor. I was referred by several doctors to be seen for a “chronic” illness. I was seen for a total of maybe 5 minutes, where bloodwork and biopsies weren’t completed. Extremely disappointed. However, the office staff that checked me in and answered calls were extremely friendly and helpful. Now, I am still unwell searching for answers and don’t know what to do. As a patient, I feel very unheard, unseen, and ignored. Thanks.
January 30, 2024Kailee B.Verified patient
The office staff was very kind and welcoming. Unfortunately the provider ruined my experience as she had no bedside manner. She did not seem like she wanted to listen to what I had to say and when she did she would either cut me off or said she could not help me with the that due to my insurance specifics. I understand that there are insurance issues however there is a way to say that and it is not by walking out of the room.

Really quick visit. Did not address many of my concerns and prescribed medications without explaining to me what they do or how long before I should see progress, etc. I felt like she was literally speaking as fast as possible to move on to her next patient.

The Doctor and Staff was very friendly although it was my first visit which was consultation ; they went over everything with me , gave me options and let me decide which route I wanted to take.
August 21, 2023Ahmad M.Verified patient
This dermatologist was excellent and saved the day for me. I had to travel 2 hours and 30 minutes round trip because the dermatologists in my area were all booked through 2024, but it was worth it. The dermatologist was knowledgeable, lovely, and friendly, and the entire team was awesome.

Excellent doctor and staff. Dr. Dawn Kleinman caught a precancerous spot on my face that my previous dermatologist failed to diagnose. She is thorough, professional and very knowledgeable.

I felt very uncomfortable as there was 3 additional people in the room training and observing during what I thought was going to be a private appointment with the doctor. Unprofessional and would not recommend. I bought a $60 bottle of sun tan lotion (recommend of course) just to leave in peace. Horrible experience.
July 24, 2023Ryan C.Verified patient
My experience was great. They found me a Dermatologist that fit my needs, immediate appointment for a new patient, and contacted me concerning my appointment and insurance prior to my appointment. I would most definitely refer anyone to this company. Thank you for your wonderful support.

Dr Dawn Kleinman, MD is AMAZING!! The environment is inviting, warm, and efficient. I was in and out of the appointment within 30 minutes. I'm excited to work with Dr. Kleinman and her team this year.

I drove over an hour to see Dr Kleinman due to not receiving any clear direction for my skin and nail problems. Prior to seeing Dr Kleinman, I had gone to two local dermatologists, a physician and a nurse practitioner. None of these individuals were able to help me. After 6 months, I began researching for an out of town specialist. Dr Kleinman examined my hands thoroughly, asking questions that no one had previously asked. Following the examination, she diagnosed me not only with hand eczema, but psoriasis of the nails with underlying psoriatic arthritis. Once I got home, I researched symptoms and pictures , which I feel matched her diagnosis. Although having an autoimmune disorder is not what I hoped to hear, it was so positive for me to finally have a diagnosis that made sense. Taking control of your own health journey is so important when you’ve been misdiagnosed. Thank you Dr. Kleinman. I look forward to working with you to improve my overall health.

After having gone to another dermatologist that I was not particularly happy with, I received a recommendation for Dr. Kleinman. Final result? I would absolutely recommend Dr. Kleinman to everyone. She was on time and very professional. I was so excited to learn exactly what my skin problems were and how to treat them. She also gave me options. Loved my experience.
