Verified patient
Everyone was very nice and helpful especially Franchesca one of the nurses. Very pleasant and reasuring. However, Dr. Zimmerman was not very encouraging about my skin issues. I am not sure if she thought because of medicare that I wouldnt want more treatments but she did not seem interested in any sort of way I could deal with my skin issues. I am going to try another dermatologist.
This clinic and staff are incredible. Extremely knowledgeable as well as friendly and professional. Answered all my questions and were very thorough. Highly recommend them!!

She rushes me out the room every time. She doesn't take the time to discuss anything with you. She literally sees you for 30 seconds. Horrible physician assistant.
Everyone is always great
Esther is my go-to-dermatologist. She's great. Really friendly, and efficient. I always feel comfortable with her and know the care I am receiving is top quality. I trust her implicitly.

Everyone was great
The Zocdoc illustrated her for depression treatment, but she is a dermatologist and laughs to patients who visits her. Bad bedside manner.Must be removed from here.
Verified patient
My experience was wonderful from start to finish. The office is beautiful and clean and the staff was so sweet. My appointment was with Esther Zimmerman. She was extremely sweet and attentive. She has such a gentle hand and was able to answer all my questions/concerns. I recently went to her for cosmetic reasons (botox and lip filler). She is a perfectionist which could not be better when it comes to working on my face! Book with Esther and you will be in great hands! I highly highly recommend!!!

I’ve been a patient of Schweiger Dermatology for years, at various locations. I’m thrilled to now be a patient at the Ave J location in Brooklyn. The office was very clean, the staff friendly and I was seen within a short amount of time. Esther was great. She listened to exactly what I wanted and I didn’t feel the pinch of the Botox needles at all. Yay! She was very easy to talk to, had a warm and sweet way about her and I look forward to my next visit.
