All personnel in the office are friendly and accommodating. The doctor gives lots of information regarding diagnoses and treatments. I would continue to see him when I have a skin-related issue.

Verified patient
Finally found a dermatologist that I love! Being a first time patient he didn’t rush and noticed things I didn’t even come in for!
Verified patient
My visit was great. I got in early and before I could even settle in I was called. The doctor came in a few minutes after I was placed into the exam room. He spent quality time with me and allowed me to ask all my questions while providing me with an answer to each. He also recommended over the counter and behind the counter medication which I believe will both be helpful. His team was friendly as well.
Verified patient
I saw him 3 times-first time was fine except the wait was about 45 minutes. Second time was for a small procedure and he yelled at office staff because they’d scheduled me on a day he didn’t do procedures...The third time (again for the procedure) I waited over 30 minutes and he said he couldn’t do the procedure and should go to a different doctor. So, I appreciated that he didn’t do it; but why didn’t he just tell me at the first visit. He was nice enough, but I down rated his bedside manner because he yelled at staff and wasted my time by scheduling me twice for a procedure he wasn’t comfortable doing.
