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.

Love these people!
I’ve been coming here for a couple years now and they’ve always been so good to me! Not only did Dr. Barak finally diagnose my condition when no other doctor could- but he also gave me the meds to treat and basically “cure” it with ongoing treatment. The staff and billing people are all so sweet and down to earth. I can’t say enough about how great this place is -really! They have done so much to help me (without giving away my entire medical history) but they really did save me so many times!

Avoid Dr. Barak and PA Dermatology
Dr. Barak lacked all bedside manner in describing my diagnosis. He didn't provide any information regarding the diagnosis, other than a shrug and 'must be genetic'. During the Mohs procedure, he constantly checked text messages that were appearing on his watch - apparently his wife 'wasn't very busy that day' and kept texting him. After my surgery site became infected a week or so later, I decided to find a different dermatologist who was appalled at the level of care (or lack thereof) and the decision to complete a Mohs procedure in that specific site when there were more affordable and less cosmetically intrusive options. I vehemently advise all family, friends and co-workers to avoid this practice and Dr. Barak. Unfortunately, some of them have also had very similar, unprofessional and even medically questionable procedures completed at the same and nearby location.
