Verified patient
Office was nice and clean. I went in for somthing minor so was in and out super quickly. It did feel a tiny bit rushed, but I didn't mind since I was just checking on a small growth.
Office did not know about the appointment made on Zocdoc. However, they were able to get me in without any delay. I was in the exam room in less than 10 mins from the time I walked in.
Verified patient
Visit was very assuring. Dr and assistant were very professional and kind. Zocdoc had the wrong address 380 Should be 3801. That was the only problem. I called ahead to verify address. Zocdoc is not very up to date with doctor’s addresses
Verified patient
I went in for a routine annual skin check as my family has a history of skin cancer. The staff were very friendly and made me feel comfortable. Dr. Yoo took the time to get to know me and my situation and even gave me a prescription to clear up body acne that has worked wonders! Highly recommend this office.
Verified patient
She is very personable and knowledgeable
Loved the efficiency of the office staff and medical professionals. The office was modern, attractive, and felt very clean. I felt as safe as possible going inside after having my temperature checked before I entered. I felt very well cared for from the moment I went in to the office until the moment I left...thank you!

Elisa came to introduce herself to me but her assistance handle me, it was quick 5 mins they just looked at my face and told me what they were going to prescribe and that was it.
Verified patient
Very fast an efficient got test samples same day!
Dr Elisa Yoo and her staff were first class all the way. When I was in the room, they made my visit relaxing and through. I know have a plan with the Dr and what we are going to do and a time frame. Which makes me more relax and not worry about what's next. I would totally recommend her and the staff for your next dermatology exam. Thank you so much Dr Elisa Yoo and staff.

Very quick and efficient!
Verified patient
has physicians assistants and nurses doing all the work and just because my symptoms were "amusing" and "interesting" decide to peek in for 1-2 mins with her hands in her pockets not even introducing herself or welcoming
Professional courteous and punctual
Verified patient
Everyone pleasant and helpful
She had me stand in a robe & stood about a foot from me to "look me over" for my yearly skin check-up (lots of previous sun damage). My derm in PA would lay me on a table, look me over from head to toe w/a special light & magnifying instrument that gave her a closer look at my moles, skin tags, etc. How can a derm do a through exam standing someone up & just glancing w/the naked eye over their body? Horrible:-(

Very helpful

Dr. Yoo is a very nice lady & I scheduled an appointment to get a few miles removed. Her PA, Renee was awesome & very thorough as well. Also all the receptionist and nurse I interacted with were pleasant and knowledgeable. I'm very excited to have a dedicated dermatologist I feel confident will answer my questions and help me to keep my skin healthy.

I look forward to my appt. next week, where I will have some minor procedures done. All in all, I was very satisfied with this office.

Very honest. Went in and they told me before treating that the Dr was out of my insurance plan's network. Most doctor's offices don't tell you that.

From the moment you walk into the office, everyone is very friendly and proffesional. I never waited more than 15 min. for my appt. Dr. Yoo is amazing! I love that she is empathetic to you.
