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.

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.

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.

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!!!

Dr. Zimmerman is highly experienced and adeptly performed the procedures. I’ve used her before. She is knowledgeable, patient, and skilled. Don’t hesitate to be seen by her.

Dr. Zimmerman doesn't waste any time. She is quick, to the point, gets you what you need, and gets you out of there.
The waits can be long though.

I saw Zimmerman. She was quick. Didn’t really look at the concerned area I had. Just sent a couple of creams and antibiotics to a different pharmacy than my own.
Staff and front desk were kind and attentive.

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.
