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.

Poor bedside manner and clearly incompetent
Extremely obnoxious had an attitude the moment I met her and it was my first time going to her office. I'm glad I left without being seen and will leave a poor review for this doctor on all her platforms so someone else can avoid traveling out of their way to see her poor bedside manner. She should learn how to treat patients with care and concern. Such a waste of my time to be greeted in the manner she chose. She felt the need to kick me out of the room because I lowered my mask for literally one moment to take a sip of my drink, she explained in an attitude that I needed to exit the room for her to lysol everywhere because I sipped a drink. Obviously this doctor lacks complete common sense and competence. AVOID.

Dr. Steinberg was very rude and unprofessional with my 14 year old son, she lectured him about COVID and had the nerve to ask him if he was vaccinated! Terrible bed side manner, will never go to her office again! I was very uncomfortable, we were there for a body check for my son and I was concerned with a spot on his back, I have to call twice to get the results, no one called me back.

Dr. Amy Steinberg was the only doctor that diagnosed a skin condition my husband suffers with. She treated it and treated him with the utmost respect. She called to see how he was doing. Dr. Steinberg is a gem.

I’ve had a horrible rash from the sun for many years. I’ve seen several dermatologists who have prescribed different meds. I suffered every summer with severe itching - drawing blood as the summer wore on. I saw Dr Steinberg a few weeks ago. She knew exactly what it was and how to treat it. I can’t tell you how happy I am that I found her - it really feels like a miracle for me. I highly recommend her.

Extremely incompetent. After meeting with my doctor through telehealth she prescribed a dermatological medication. I had to repeatedly call the office because she did not provide vital information to the pharmacy like dosage and method of use. While waiting almost a week my insurance expired and i now need to pay significantly more for my prescription. I still have not been able to fill my script. WHAT BOARD CERTIFIED DOCTOR DOES NOT KNOW THEY NEED TO INCLUDE THE DOSAGE? Would give negative stars if possible. Stay away.

Dr Steinberg is my angel. She is professional, understanding, and caring. I was in such pain, thinking it was her domain. After my visit, she put me with another dr.that was appropriate for my issue. Since then, I still follow up with her. I am a person with her, not just an ID number. She is such a special lady, doctor and more. I highly recommend Dr Steinberg for Your dermatological needs. I’ve recommended her to 4 people already and they all adore her. I would give her 20 stars!
