January 15, 2026Kathleen M.Verified patient
I recently visited this dermatology office for hair loss concerns and was disappointed with my experience. The office rescheduled me with a different provider on the morning of my appointment, which I accepted. When I arrived, the clinic appeared quite busy, and I had to wait about 20 minutes after being seated in the exam room.
The doctor however, only spent 5 minutes with me, did not even examine my hair, and gave a very generic medication recommendation. I had several questions prepared, but the doctor seemed rushed and I left without a satisfactory resolution.
The front desk staff also seemed confused about the payment process—I had to remind them about my copay. Overall, I felt my time was wasted and would not recommend this office.

Office can’t manage appointments
It showed confirmed appointment on zocdoc but when I showed they told me it was not confirmed. Proceeded to blame me for not confirming the appointment. When I showed them Zocdoc confirmation, they told me it’s Zocdoc issue. I showed them the email from their office, they told me I should have gotten a call. They didn’t call. I got text message up to this morning saying it was confirmed. They don’t know how their system works and gaslight me by saying it’s my fault for not answering a call which they never made.

She knew her stuff, took her time to explain things to me and didn’t feel rushed like some dermatologists office visits feel like.

Excellent experience. Check-in was super easy, and the FOH staff were all super helpful. I was seen on time and was in and out in under 10 minutes, so fast and easy. Kristine was super sweet and knew exactly how to help.
May 3, 2023Haleigh H.Verified patient
Kristine was super informative and helpful. She was positive and her bedside manner was superb. Since my only required treatment was for a wart removal, she even asked if I had questions about any other conditions as well. I would highly recommend her as a provider for adults and children alike.
