Dr. Husain was especially knowledgeable and efficient, identified my problem right away and gave me a complete plan to follow with fantastic explanations. Both short term and long term solutions, great one-stop doctor for all dermatology problems.

My visit with Dr. Husain was short, but I would definitely visit him again. He has a warm and empathetic bedside manner and I felt that he truly listened to all my concerns with my skin and addressed each one.

I decided to switch dermatologists because I was very unsatisfied with the service I was receiving. Dr. Husain was a remarkable improvement over my previous doctor - the appointment was on time, Dr. Husain and the assistant were incredibly professional and thorough and the office staff were very helpful.

Easily booked an appointment on Zocdoc after business hours on Friday for a Monday morning appointment... Dr. Husain's office confirmed the appointment at 6:40am on Monday morning. Appointment went very smoothly, I was in and out in 30 minutes, which included time for a short treatment. Will definitely see this doctor again if I need a dermatologist in the future!

Dr. Husain was friendly and asked lots of questions which I appreciated. I always get nervous going to the doctors office and forget to bring up topics and ask questions. Office and staff were very professional. I liked the music and warm temperature in the exam room. There is nothing worse than taking off your clothing for a yearly skin scan and then sitting there freezing for 10 minutes waiting for the doctor.

My visit was timely and informative. Dr. Husain definitely was trying to sell quite a few products, especially those sold by his office, but the information sheets he gave me provided over the counter options as well. Overall, he is good and offers whatever service needs you have.

I highly recommend Dr. Husain and the entire practice! I was able to book a same day appointment and even move my time up earlier in the day last minute. I was then of course running late and they were so accommodating and friendly when I finally arrived. The entire staff was just a delight The longest wait was once I was in the room, but even that was maybe 10 minutes and the chair is SO comfortable I could have lounged much longer :). Dr. Husain was very helpful and informative, but also fast. High marks all around for them!

Dr Husain was great. He gave me the advice I was looking for. The check in process was a little confusing. I also thought my insurance card/paperwork had gone through with ZocDoc and it didn't. Still, the check in receptionist was so busy and I was really confused about the role of the tablet at the desk. Due to all this, it took awhile to establish that I did not have everything that I needed in order to be seen. So I unnessarily waited too long a time.

Dr. Husain was excellent! I had been referred around in circles by other dermatologists and this was actually the 5th doctor's office I've visited about the same concern (sebaceous cyst). I found Dr. Husain online and based on reviews, I decided to give it one last try. I'm glad I did because Dr. Husain was prompt to address my desire to remove the cyst and he removed it that same day of my very first visit! Highly recommend!

I had an awesome dermatologist in Las Vegas for years. I recently moved to Virginia and was tremendously concerned of finding a new dermatologist. I just had my first appointment with Dr. Zain and I could not be happier. Dr. and his staff were so nice and professional and exceeded my expectations. Dr. Husain will be my dermatologist of choice and will refer everyone to see him. Thank you Dr. Zain Husain and staff.

Dr Husain kept me waiting almost an hour and then spent less than 5 minutes examining me. Hard to know what he would have been able to see/find given how little he tried. I left feeling uneasy and that I should probably get a second opinion.
