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.

He is the best he helped me with my skin and gave me the right treatments before I didn't know because I always use pural hand sanitizer but then he told me that the pural hand sanitizer has alcohol and that's what was bothering my skin so then he gave me the right cream I need and then I started using non alcohol things and that helped my skin so much that thank you so much Mr. Sami.

Not at all.
Was dismissive and short and did not give enough time for my consultation. Was ready to biopsy me in 3 places when I did not need immediate biopsies. His bedside manner was curt and disconcerting to the patient.

I was seen for a spot of concern and didn’t really know what to expect as it was my first time seeing a dermatologist. I was pleasantly surprised with a knowledgeable physician with great bedside manner and friendly staff that were just as helpful! A biopsy was needed which was explained in detail as well as the possibilities for results. All of my questions were answered and I feel comfortable continuing my care with Dr. Sami and his team.

Like many dermatology patients my visit was regarding possible sun damage to my skin. Dr. Sami refused to give me a full exam to find any additional spots other than what I was aware of. When refusing, he blamed me for being a few minutes late! Not only him but his assistant and the receptionist also guilted me for being late and doc and asst also asked prying questions as to why! Sami does not explain things in plain understandable language and was surprised when I asked him to explain what a basal cell is and give a prognosis. No bedside manner. Never explained the risks of a biopsy. And he seems to make up things too, claiming lidocaine prevents bleeding. That seems to be false. At the end Sami said “she (asst) has some sunscreens that i think you’ll like” so I’m thinking they’re samples. No! Just a crappy photocopy of some pictures of products.

Inconsiderate and would not listen to anything I said. He blindly prescribed me medication even looking at my skin to determine what I had and deemed me "non-compliant" when I was ALLERGIC to the medication he prescribed. The worst dr I have ever been to at UCF health. He has terrible bedside manner. DO NOT go to him Avoid at all costs if you want a good dermatologist.
