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.

Best dermatologist I have used. He explains everything to you in a clear language that you can understand. I trust him and will use him again.

Bad communication from office staff
I called office to verify that my insurance would be accepted. I gave my information and was told yes insurance was accepted but I needed a referral. Got the referral from my PCP. Got an email and text verifying my appointment. Got to appointment and ooops my insurance not accepted. No call no text no email. So sorry bye bye

Dr. Latif and dishonest billing practices. I was told that I had a past due balance for a biopsy from my last visit. Biopsy - (noun) an examination of tissue removed to discover the presence, cause or extent of disease. I had a pimple removed and nothing was sent out to a lab. His medical assistant, Michelle and I quote, “We code everything BIOPSY.” Sadly, I was there for a follow-up because the pimple wasn't entirely removed - so much for the BIOPSY. BEWARE go to another practice!

The dr. is ok, very personable, but when I say "No I can't afford that right now" he needed to listen. His staff is nice but his billing department stinks. 3 calls in 2 weeks and no answer and the prescription was not sent to the pharmacy.
