Krisha Patel is the best ever. I was with her before she came to this office, and I am glad I found her again. Easy to talk to, knowledgeable, efficient, and just plain great.

They were kind and listened but did not want to address the bumps I have all over my neck and body. I even suggested I could pay after hearing insurance doesn’t pay.
July 29, 2026Nina B.Verified patient
Everyone at the office was friendly and supportive. The doctor listened to my concerns and clearly explained the reasons they were and weren't doing things. I felt confident in my treatment plan going forward and I look forward to my future visits here.

Personable, friendly, professional. Was able to check on my concerns, was familiar with the situation and diagnosed immediately. Able to treat immediately and kept my anxiety at a low level. First time with a dermatologist and I will return to her if the situation arises.
