Dr. Aria is a true talent and has a keen artistic eye, in addition to genuinely caring about his patients. He takes the time to discuss which treatment options are best for your goals and will work with you to accomplish them. Do not go anywhere else for laser therapies. With regards to botox, I'd been seeing various NPs over the past few years and I can confidently say that Dr. Aria is better than any of the other providers I've had, and by a large margin!

Dr. Healey is amazing!!! She is friendly, extremely knowledgeable & professional. We never feel rushed & she explains everything in terms you will understand. We see her every 6 months to check our moles, as we grew up in the era of baby oil, cocoa butter & foil to tan. Dr. Healey has also given me good advice about my skin damage (facial mostly) and recommends realistic treatments. You will not be disappointed!

I’ve been a patient of Dr Osder’s for 6 years and I’m very happy with her expertise and overall quality of care. She and her staff are always pleasant and very organized. I have never had to wait more than 10 minutes in the waiting room. She is very skilled at freezing and biopsies of suspicious areas and I wouldn’t think of going anywhere else.

Well dr. Weiss, my new dermatologist, was so kind. Dr. Wise made me feel very comfortable examining my full body for basal cell carcinoma. His receptionist and his assistance are amazing. I will return to see Dr. Weiss and I’m very happy he spent the time to care for me. Thank you very much Bett Brezner.

Dr.Healey is fantastic! I have Kaiser insurance coverage so I gladly pay out of pocket because I only trust her to check my moles and skin every year! She is so thorough and explains in layman terms possible procedures and lab results and sometimes draws out surgical cuts and explains possible scarring so I can understand it and make a thoughtful decision. Thank you, Dr.Healey. I highly recommend her!

As has been true for the decades that Dr. Patrice Healey has provided excellent medical services, on my recent visit I again received a check up and management of chronic conditions, a diagnosis of a new condition and a periodic body scan that has more than once discovered and managed conditions before they became serious. I cannot think of anything more I could ask of Dr. Healey.

I am 71 and have been a patient of Dr. Patrice Healy for some time now. I think Dr. Healy is overall an excellent Doctor, including knowledge, professionalism and bedside manner. I find the staff to be very courteous and polite. Unless there is an emergency, I usually schedule two exams a year, 6 months ahead; so finding the day and time is never a problem. However, when a true emergency does arise, they fit me in somehow every time. 5 stars is very appropriate for both Physician and staff.

Doctor Aria is genuinely amazing! He is very kind, knowledgeable and went above and beyond for me. I’ve been struggling with hyperpigmentation and sun spots for years and have had multiple sessions done at another practice but unfortunately results dose not compare to my experience at Dermatology Associates Medical Group. He not only explained the entire process but gave me such clear post care instructions and post treatment products to use to maintain my skin improving even after the treatment. I'm so happy with my results and the decision I made coming here. Also Kuddos to the staff, they are all very knowledgeable and considerate with your needs and truly care about their patients. I will definitely be back and highly recommend booking your very first treatment with him!

I have been a patient of Dr. Hoffman’s now for 20 plus years. She is very personable and inspires great confidence. She’s always incredibly knowledgeable regarding whatever issue I’m having and her course of treatments are always on the money. The rest of her staff is amazing as well. I can’t recommend Dr. Hoffman and this office enough.

Dr. Steven Weiss is excellent. He is knowledgeable, caring, and willing to answer all your questions. If you want an expert in dermatology, he is my top recommendation. And I have 65 years And a half dozen previous doctors to know the difference!

After my first appointment with dr L Rivkin some 15 years ago I knew that unless he would retire no one but him or someone carefully chosen by him to be his associate would now take of my skin. When it comes to your shield (your skin) , your precious face you can only take THE best. This is why I choose to go there. And NOWHERE ELSE.
