Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

She is thorough, professional and a pleasure to work with.

Rude; unprofessional incompetent individual. Kept my 93 year old father waiting over an hour with the medication on his face. The procedure was unnecessarily painful due to her total disregard for adhering to the allotted time for this treatment. I would never subject my father to treatment from this extremely disrespectful unprofessional doctor. She is in the Ridgewood office of North Bergen Dermatology now.
