I’ve been seeing Dr. Weiderkehr for almost 17 years because he’s the only dermatologist that has truly helped me combat my skin issues. He’s one of the few doctors out there that still cares about his patients. I would highly recommend him!

This was my first time seeing Dr. Wiederkehr. He was highly recommended and now I see why. He was very thorough, professional and receptive to questions and concerns. His staff was super as well. I give him high marks. I saw him at the Hoboken office where it was difficult to find a place to park on the street so arrive early or park in a parking garage nearby.

Great bedside manner.
Verified patient
Dr was great but sort of angry having to wait so long. I was asked to sign an agreement stating if I ever missed an appointment I would be responsible to pay for it. Sort of strange them to make me wait an hour past my appointment time. My time isn’t valuable?

I've been a patient of Dr. Wiederkehr for years. He is a committed, compassionate doctor with a wonderful bedside manner. He always gives the pros and cons of any treatment. I would definitely recommend him.
Verified patient
There was another person (assume a doctor?) in the room for my full body screening observing the procedure . Dr. Wiederkher did not introduce her and she did not introduce herself. It made me a bit uncomfortable. Why wouldn’t that be explained or introduced? Just awkward...
He was very professional, thorough with my skin scan & has a great bedside manner! I will definitely be going back in the future.
At last a true professional. Dr. Wiederkehr was thorough in his examination of my skin and immediately found things to freeze off and biopsy. I came to him for a second opinion because I felt that the doctor I was seeing was just too casual about skin cancer. So I proved right. Dr Wiederkehr found things that needed attention even though I had seen another doctor just 3 months earlier. his technique for taking biopsy was totally professional and he had gentle hands. This is a good one. He also was gracefully apologetic about being late
Verified patient
Dr. Wiederkehr has a wonderful bedside manner. He treated both my girls for mollescum and was able to put them at ease during uncomfortable extractions. I will definitely bring them back for any future needs.
Verified patient
He is kind, attentive, considerate and genuinely cares. He remembers details about my life and his personal touch is what makes him an amazing doctor.
Professional & thoughtful!
Very clear of what will be performed to investigate what was cause of issue and very interested in discussing rwhat steps will be performed in esolving your issue.
Dr Lisa was fantastic! She was on time, quick and efficient. She answered all of my questions and I felt that I was in really good care. After leaving I had an additional question and a problem with a medicine (my insurance did not cover it). She called in a new medicine and called me back personally to answer my question. I am really impressed and couldn’t recommend more!
