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.

Skin improved
had a fantastic experience with Dr. Zemel. He was thorough, patient, and took the time to explain my condition and treatment options. The staff was friendly, and my skin has already improved after just a few visits—I highly recommend this practice!

I have been coming to the Paterson office for laser hair removal and have been happy with the results so far. They have a nice new,CLEAN,spacious office with parking for patients now. I recommend people come and see them. Their prices are affordable and reasonable compared to other derms I have been to in the past. The staff is friendly and open they answered all my questions. I will bring my mother in.

I suffer from a very rare disease called Variegate Porphyria. It took many years of various doctors in Allergy and dermatology fields and a mound of mis-diagnoses, pain and torturous rashes and sun effects until i met Dr Zemel. I find him to be competant beyond the many others in his field who have failed to find what's wrong with me. I find him patient, thorough caring and direct. He takes great time and patience in examining, diagnosing and explaining options very clearly. *****
