“Informative and gets done what needs to be done. As much in one visit as possible -- I've dealt with other dermatologists who have told me "come back next week and we will finish the job" which costs me a lot of time and money.”

Thorough, professional and quality care. I have seen multiple other dermatologists and this was by far the best most knowable appointment I’ve had. Highly recommend.
October 21, 2025Zoe S.Verified patient
Dr. S is a great listener and thoroughly explained my options, as well as coached me on the best course of action moving forward. Though I may take the medication route for this issue in the future, Dr. S did not want to immediately jump to meds like a lot of doctors do nowadays, and I respect that. I look forward to continuing care with Dr. S and this practice in the future.

I have a simple follow up question and after leaving a message never received a response. It is impossible to get an actual person on the phone. Terrible customer service!
