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.

Excellent
Courteous and congenial receptionist. Appointment on short notice. Short wait time. Dr Borkin was caring and competent and explained the condition very understandably. Very personalized environment. Highly recommended.

Phenomenal Experience
I took my 11 year old daughter to Dr. Borkin after her seeing another dermatologist in the area. I had heard Dr. Borkin was great with kids and it proved to be far better experience for her. I also have friends that see him for cosmetic dermatology, and they all speak very highly of the experience and results.

Knowledgeable and ONE OF A KIND DERM!
Dr. Borkin is so kind and knowledgeable! He ensures you feel heard and goes through every issue you have while listening intently. If you have heard someone say “when you find a good doctor keep them because they are hard to find” they are talking about physicians like Dr. Borkin. I have gone to numerous dermatologists and never found answers till I saw Dr. Borkin. it’s always a pleasure to see him and his kind hearted staff. With a phenomenal bedside manner, attention to detail, and outstanding knowledge around all things derm I can confidently say I have found a dermatologist that I’ll be adding to my list of doctors you NEED to keep. I am so thankful to Dr. Borkin and his staff, absolutely phenomenal care. It doesn’t feel like you’re walking into another office, it’s a kind and warm welcome. I promise you, once you see him you won’t look any further! (Unless he refers you haha) thank you again Dr. Borkin you are truly appreciated!

Dr. Borkin is the GOAT
Dr. Borkin is the best. He’s a human being and has an incredible bedside manner. I have better skin now in my 30s than I’ve had in my entire life thanks to his guidance. Whenever I need anything he’s there and he’s got an incredible staff. He goes above and beyond!

Skin cancer
Dr Borkin found a suspicious tumor during an annual checkup. A few days later surgery was scheduled. Two weeks later I was cured. Very efficient and friendly.

Excellent experience!
Dr. Borkin always makes me feel like he’s happy to see me. He’s a good listener, gives good medical advice and has a gentle touch. I have been treated successfully for several conditions, including hair loss, which Dr. Borkin was able to stop, and achieve regrowth. No one in the office has pressured me to buy products or, expensive treatments. All of the staff are kind, caring, and friendly. Appointments are easy to schedule. I’ve never had to wait more than 10 minutes in the waiting room.

First experience at Dermatology Associates
This was my first time at Dermatology Associates. Dr. Borkin and his staff were excellent. They got me checked in very quickly. Everyone was very friendly. I didn’t have to wait long at all to see Dr. Borkin. He did great job of explaining my condition and treatment. I was in and out of there in under an hour. I have a follow up appointment with them and would definitely recommend them.

First visit...first impressions
My first appointment with Dr Borkin and his staff was great. The friendly staff, was most helpful in completing the online registration and the wait time to see Dr Mike was 5 minutes. Dr Borkin did a complete and thorough body scan and addressed all of my questions in a professional, warm manor. I will surely use Dr Borkin for future visits.

Dr Borkin
Dr Borkin is everything you want in your dermatologist. He is caring, thorough, insightful, committed. I trusted him with my life and he saved it…finding a spot on my scalp that turned out to be melanoma. The surgeon who subsequently removed it said “it was a good get, not easily identified”. It’s not hyperbole to say that if he didn’t take a biopsy, I wouldn’t be writing this today. He’s a good man and a great dermatologist.

Dr Borkin was very thorough in his total body review. He was quick to identify any issues and recommend a remedy. He was very efficient, personable, and was concerned to not over extend my appointment, but did not rush through any questions I had.
