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.

Always an 'Emergency', no respect for your time
I have had several appts with this dr & there is ALWAYS an issue. I went in to get an inflamed cyst drained & waited over an hour. He finally comes in & has a whole song & dance on how many procedures he did that day & he couldn't do mine because 'he didn't have time' & told me to come back tomorrow in a different office. So I had to wait over an hour in pain that day & then go out of my way to go back the following day. A year later I went to get the cyst removed (no idea why he couldn't do it at the first appointment) Again, waited over 90 minutes he finally comes in & injects the numbing agent, then has to leave to take a phone call. He didn't come back for another 40 minutes. I go to the follow up appointment which I was told I would be in & out very quickly, waited 40 minutes before questioning when I would be seen, then got called into the room 15 minutes later only to wait another 30 minutes before walking out. Cannot get results because he still hasn't reviewed them!

Excellent surgeon!!!
Hands down the best doctor I have ever been to! ?? Takes the time to talk to you, make conversation to explain the procedure in depth. Willing to listen to any questions you may have. Incredibly patient, incredibly kind. Definitely go to him! I wish all doctors on Earth were like him. I cannot say enough good things about him and I'm so thankful for the great job he did on my surgery.

Most knowledgeable and caring doctor for skin care
My daughter has has a birthmark that she was born with for 12 years now. We’ve kept a close eye on it to watch how it grew and would change each year. As she got older she asked about possibly removing it. Because her birthmark was large and on her forehead we were nervous about the removal process possibly leaving a larger more noticeable scar but not until We met Dr.Lipson who went over each and every option with us and took his time to explain them all. He’s by far the best out there and we are so happy we found him. No other doctor has came close to being as amazing as he is. He’s been in practice for a very long time and let me tell you he knows his stuff. You won’t be disappointed if you went to see him. He sure is not like these other doctors who rush your appointments leaving you with tons of unanswered questions. He’s caring, extremely patient and so kind. Thank you Dr.lipson for bring such an incredible doctor for my baby girl.

Softspoken and engaging, DR. Lipson put me at ease the moment I met him. He explained everything to be done, step by step. I had every confidence in him and actually enjoyed being a patient.

Excellent, excellent experience with Dr Lipson. I would highly recommend. Surgery went off without a hitch and I achieved excellent results. Dr Lipson is very attentive to detail. His bedside manner is as amazing as his surgical skills. I would high recommend Dr Lipson. It was an extra bonus to deal with an excellent office staff as well. Together, they made the operative experience flawless.

I love Dr. Lipson. I was attacked by a dog when I was 2.5 (I’m now 42); the dog ripped off part of my face. Dr. Lipson was the dr. who fixed me. I’ve been seeing him all these years and am more than happy with the results. I can’t say enough about him. I just adore this doctor.

Dr. Lipson is such a nice man. After my surgery, he called my home that night and spoke to me for about half an hour. He answered all my questions and concerns. I look just the way I wanted. He was on point with what looked good for me. I am happy I chose him. I'd highly recommend him. Jamie J BS, BSN,RN

Dr Lipson is the nicest doctor I have ever met. I saw a complaint about waiting time. I have never minded waiting for Dr Lipson because he spends all the time you need. He is thorough, explains everything and he is the most talented surgeon. Everything he does is natural looking. I have been going to him for years and highly recommend him.

I had a 2:40 PM appointment; received SEVERAL confirmation calls, which was annoying, and was asked to be there by 2PM to fill out paperwork. I arrived at 2:05 -- checked in and no mention of paperwork. I waited until 2:30 and asked what was going on. I was told he was running late; still had a patient in surgery and one more after that before me (this person had a 1PM appt). I asked why they did not call me and they said "they don't do that". How utterly unprofessional & discourteous!
