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 and most trustworthy dermatologist I know of!
I have had several visits to Dr. Pinski and he is the only dermatologist I completely trust! He usually doesn't find anything wrong that sun block couldn't have fixed, but the time he did find a cancerous growth, he painlessly took it out and didn't even leave a scar. He is an artist and an excellent doctor!

Dr. Pinski pushed to remove a small mole on my neck which he said could be cancerous. I've had this mole on my neck for over twenty years, and have had countless doctors say it was benign and there was no need to remove. Pinski was aggressive in pushing to have him do the procedure. I decided to have him remove the mole and have it biopsied. It came back benign, as every previous competent physician noted it would. Additionally he did not remove the sutures but a person that appeared ill trained, if trained at all, bumbled to remove the sutures. When I asked where Pinski was, I was told he had already left the office. When at a later date I spoke to Pinski to ask why he hadn't removed my sutures or examined the wound, he said this was how his office operates. He doesn't routinely remove sutures or examine post operation wounds. Pinski seems much more interested in creating revenue for his office than in the care and treatment of his patients.

I do not have enough words to express my gratitude to Dr. Pinski and his staff. I have been a patient of Dr. Pinski's for years and trusted his guidance through various dermatology related issues. He has always been kind, professional, and knowledgeable. Most recently (the last 3 months) I have undergone XTRAC laser treatment for vitiligo. Let me preface this with the fact that this laser is not easy to use, and requires a highly trained technician to administer. I have been working with Mari De La Roca, a medical laser tech, and she is absolutely incredible. She is caring, compassionate, and meticulous. She's also a rockstar with this laser because once your color comes back, you then return to fill in smaller areas that are missing. It's truly art. With Dr. Pinski and Mari's help, I can say that I have close to 80% of my color back... and I'm still in treatment and thus expecting more color to resurface! The color has repigmented on my face and hands, and I am ecstatic! Thank you!
