Verified patient
Nice experience .
We were here 2 years ago for Acne and was prescript with Accutane. The acne came back, but the doctor didn't check our previous record so we have to tell her about the Accutane. She just asked us to continue using topical acne medication and she prescribed another topical for spot treatment. Didn't ask how long we were on the acne medication or anything specific. She is not thorough enough.
Very modern office. Clean and efficient. Lots of front desk staff to assist you. Very helpful, patient and polite. Definitely will recommend them! Doc very personable and concerned.
Verified patient

It was a very nice, clean and friendly office. There was no wait time at all!!! This was my first visit as a new patient. The doctor was also nice. The exam was fairly quick and felt a little hurried but overall very pleased and will go back again.

Dr. Isak was very professional, explained the whole process, and provided services to remove skin tags which I did not expect on the first visit! Painless and quick.

Verena Isak, MD was polite, answered all of my questions. I was pleased with her care. The young lady was friendly and professional.
Verified patient
I was disappointed because I traveled an hour for this appointment and I felt rushed. Not sure why the doctor was in a rush, she had practically the whole day available on zocdoc. Had a list of questions I didn’t get to answer all of them. I would try another doctor in the practice the front desk was very nice.
Verified patient
I’m a new patient. Was told to come 15 min before my appointment 6.20 pm. I got there 6.05pm. Did my registration in 5 min. 3 people came after me went in. Waited until 6.35pm to check with front desk. They did not know why the delay. Finally I went in 6.45pm. Nurse asked some questions and I waited again until 7pm to see the doctor. I was annoyed. Dr came and check on me for 2 mins. I left at 7.04pm. Probably will not return.
Verified patient
Doctor was very dismissive and spent less than 10 mins with me. I didn’t even have a chance to tell her my concerns before she was already out of the room. She was nice but clearly to busy to answer questions, properly check me, or here me out.
All of the Staff and Doctor were Wonderful!
Fantastic physician! Listened well, open to questions. Dr. Isak's exam of my issue was very thorough, She explained her plan for treatment in a clear manner. I will be going back for a follow up and I have switched to Dr. Isak as my Dermatologist.
Verified patient
I scheduled an appointment after noticing a wart developing on my thumb. During my visit, the provider stated she would not freeze it because she did not see anything, even though the wart was clearly visible and in the same spot I had one a few months prior. She told me to return if it worsened or “actually showed.” To appease me, she froze a small portion, though the wart was more extensive. The following week, after it had spread across my thumb, I reminded her of our agreement. Instead, she insisted the previously treated spot was sufficient and claimed the rest was “reacting” and causing eczema, though it was clearly still a wart. I requested freezing again, but she only treated part of it once more. This forced me to return a third time, where it was finally confirmed as a wart. This entire process left me with two unnecessary copays, added frustration, and wasted time.
Dr Isak was very nice and thorough. She explained all my concerns. My visit was very quick. I was seen within 5 minutes of arrival
Verified patient
