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.

First visit was today. 10AM appt, in my car leaving at 10:25. Doctor Esguerra spent plenty of time with me too. Completely explained everything he was doing as he did it. Addressed the two issues I came in to address fully. Gave treatment plans and alternatives if needed later. Explained meds given. Did not just give me the normal course of treatment meds because case (rosecea) did not call for oral meds yet. Can add later if needed. Did not try and sell me other treatments. GREAT Doctor! Very personable and put me at ease. Obvious he knew his stuff and was only going to do what was needed. Other Doctors may have tried to add several other treatments and rechecks. He said to come back if issues did not clear up but gave extended refills and said to come back in a year. I will be back! Been to other offices in the area and you don't see a Doctor at all (one never told me until I arrived....). They up sell their newest laser treatment or cream and always wanted rechecks

I'm NOT impressed with office manager/billing. She didn't CARE about anything I had to say. She said we never left messages. Funny though, my better half would disagree since they were sitting with me when left messages. Dr.is great. He lacks the knowledge of how uncaring some office staff is. That's why I can't recommend. Will go elsewhere for dermatology.

I saw Dr. Esguerra for examination of 2 suspicious moles. He has a wonderful chair side manner and removed both moles almost before I knew what happened! Very little pain during and after the procedure. The office is super nice and the staff is very friendly. This was the best visit to a dermatologist that I have ever had! I highly recommend him.
