seems to possess genuine empathy! she was very kind and understanding about my skin issues and asked relevant follow up questions. she was confident and direct when it came to my treatment plan. the visit was very efficient. i left feeling much better
The check-in process was easy and my insurance was accepted. Staff were friendly and used my preferred name. Dr. Chitgopeker was fantastic! Obviously knows her stuff, made me feel more comfortable with some skin changes over the last year. Very kind, patient, and professional. Highly recommend, and hopefully I'll be able to book with her again next year!

The only negative thing was that I waited for almost an hour to be seen. Other than that, the doctor was extremely informative and respectful!
Helpful and personable staff and medical professionals. Also only a block away from the El and right on many bus routes. I would definitely go back.
Verified patient
Thorough and attentive

Dr Chitgopeker and her whole office run an efficient and pleasant office. I plan on visiting annually for preventative checkups or other skincare needs going forward. She was very patient and answered my questions thoroughly. The appointment started and finished on time.
Verified patient
She’s great!
Verified patient
Dr. Chitgopeker is phenomenal! I did have quite a lengthy wait (an hour and a half in total from my arrival to being seen by the doctor). However, I could tell this was truly an anomaly for her and that it was a surgery that ran far over its allotted time. It’s rare for a doctor to sincerely thank you for your patience and respect your time, and Dr. Chitgopeker made it clear she really valued my patience. Her bedside manner was warm and inviting, and she was informational and reassuring about what course of action we were going to take. Cannot wait for my follow up with her!
