Verified Branded Directory patient
It was a very good visit compared to last year with a different PA who left me wondering what was the next step and left me hanging. Today's appt left me feeling well informed and nothing to worry about. She was very pleasant and took her time to explain everything. I highly recommend her.

very friendly and easy! Krishna is the best too!!
Verified Branded Directory patient
I feel very comfortable about going to this dermatology office. Parking is easy and since the office always has a quick wait time, has been free each time I have visited (4). I have seen two staff members, one a dermatologist and the other a physicians assistant, and they are both excellent. My PA (Patel) recently found a cancer in a seborrheic keratosis spot that was previously treated and removed and returned. She took it out leaving practically no sign or scar. I am very thankful for this office!!
Verified Branded Directory patient
They were able to help me take care of the issue I went for the same day. It was as painless as possible and I now have more peace of mind. I will definitely be back.
Verified patient
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.
Verified patient
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.
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.
Excellent service and very personable

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.
