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.

I will never go back
I will never go back to see the doctor he is only looking for insurance money. He will not spend more than one minute with you shame shame how people taking advantage of our country

HORRIBLE RUDE INCOMPETENT STAFF
Pre-registered online for my visit and it was confirmed. Got emails for the next 5 days asking me to register - clicked the link, said I was confirmed. Went in (early) for the appoinment and the very rude and obnoxious receptionist insisted I didn't register and would have to fill out the 10-plus pages. Did everything but call me a liar. Blamed me for her incompetence. Neve said sorry - we lost it. Then some big guy in scrubs got up and threathend me for being upset. If this doctor allows this behavior I don't want him near me. Walked out very upset haivng wasted time from work and gas money.

A knowledgeable and skillful doctor!
I chose this clinic because of the closest date availability, but I was nicely surprised to see that Dr. Nowfar-Rad is such a great dermatologist. He is so knowledgeable, kind, answers to all questions I have, recognizes and treats the health problems quickly and effectively. I'm so thankful to him.

Worst
The worst you ever can experience, they schedule you on a specific time, and you have to sit in the room for more than an hour waiting on him to check on you, not professional at all

It is reassuring to see other negative reviews of this doctor. I thought it was just me. Doesn’t care to hear my skin concerns and will be seeking other dermatology care.

After 40 plus years it was time to say goodbye to a mole and my extra baby nipples. I saw doctor Nowfar’Rad and within less than 5 minutes (after being seen) I was out of his office with 1 less mole and 2 less nipples. I tried asking a couple questions but he avoided them so I decided just to go with the flow. After, I began to get an infection and it took a week to get a phone call. Long story short, I had to see a surgeon to fix me. The cost was alllll out of pocket and it wasn’t cheap. Dr. Nowfar’Rad, you are truly the worse dermatologist I have ever came across and I’ve seen many. Terrible!!!!!! I had a PPO plan for a reason.
