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.

Dr. Agha has this unique capability of making you feel comfortable. I had a chemical peel yesterday on my face and she went over the pros and cons of this procedure. Her experience with assessing needs and therapies for facial rejuvenation and implementing a plan gives patients confidence. I recommend her expertise to all of my friends. Stay the course Dr. Agha, you are one of a kind. PG

Poor treatment
I've been seeing Dr Agha for a while, just for skin checks due to my history of skin cancer. These were quick and easy, and Dr Agha was very nice. I went to her for one of these checks last fall. She looked me over, gave me the green light. Then I asked her about a lesion I had near my eye. It was cancer. Had I not pointed it out, she would have missed it. But that's not the part I'm most upset about. I had also asked her to remove a cyst that kept getting infected, which she removed. The entire time when the sutures were in, it was painful, red, and bulging. I went to get the stitches out, her ASSISTANT took a long time trying to dig them out of my very inflamed wound. I asked Dr Agha regarding the inflammation and redness. She merely glanced at it and told me it was just a keloid scar. I'm a very pale person who doesn't scar easily, so extremely unlikely to be a keloid. She blew it off and said it would get better over time and gave me a cortisone shot. It rema

Dr. Agha review
Dr. Agha has been my dermatologist for years. Every appointment is the most positive experience! Not only is she an excellent doctor, but she provides the highest level of care and compassion at every visit!! I have recommended her and will continue to recommend her to friends and family.

Not happy
The billing practices of her office are shady and deceptive. I would encourage any patient of hers to review ALL charges made. In addition, she uses a private pharmacy and will not send prescriptions anywhere else. Highly inconvenient. On average, she spends about 5 minutes in the room with me during appointments. Most of her front desk staff couldn't care less. They make mistakes with appointments and then literally try to blame the patient for the error. I have had filler done by her a few times. The last time I got the filler, I had a reaction to it that I had never had before. I later found out the filler was not the same one I usually get and that the expiration date was in the same month that I got the filler.

Horrible Experience with Mole Excision
Dr. Agha performed excisions on two moles I had. Both moles re-opened and developed exudates. After asking another Dermatologist for their opinion on how my wounds were healing, they recommended that i have Dr. Agha re-suture them. I posted photos on my patient portal and asked Dr. Agha if I needed to come back in. She had her PA tell me to have them heal open & to clean them with hydrogen peroxide despite them not being infected. I ended up seeing a Plastic Surgeon to fix the work that she did & he informed me that the sutures she used (chromic) were often extremely irritating to the skin. He was able to redo the work she did & thankfully my scarring is not as bad. After speaking to Dr. Agha about my experience, she expressed being upset that I did not give her a chance to "fix her work" despite me asking her to. She also was extremely unprofessional and talked over me during that phone call. Worst medical experience I have ever had. Would not recommend her for anything surgical.

Had appointment today and have nothing but rave reviews for office. Staff was very friendly and Dr. Agha was so nice, explained my problem and took care of it. Next to nothing regarding waiting time to see her, I was in and out in no time! I would HIGHLY recommend her for any dermatologic problems.

I feel taken advantage of by Dr Agha and want others to know. I went for a cosmetic procedure consultation. When it comes to consultations some Dr’s charge and others don’t. So I called before making my appointment, and was told it was free. At the appointment they ask for a credit card. Why if it’s a free consultation? But the lady reassured me I wouldn’t be charged anything. Dr Agha was an hour late to my appointment. I understand things happen though. Weeks later I get a call saying I’m being charged for a 300$ appointment, which was supposed to be a free consultation. At the appointment she said she sent a topical cream to the pharmacy & I needed it (come to find out I didn’t have to have it). So she could then purposely turn around and charge me a 300$ appointment and not the free consultation. No wonder she kept asking if I wanted a refill on medication from my other Dr that I didn’t need so she could then charge me. Cares more about money. And office doesn’t call back.

I highly recommend Dr. Agha as a dermatologist. She is a very skilled compassionate doctor. It is quite evident that she is extremely knowledgeable in her field and wants only the best results for her patients. I was very pleased with the Mohs surgery she performed on my forehead. She was thorough in the removal of all the cancer cells and did a beautiful job stitching the wound. Dr. Agha also removed additional cancer cells in another area of my body and once again her excellent surgical skills were evident as the wound is healing well and there is minimal scarring.

Dr. Agha is super sharp and well read. She keeps up on all the latest research and available treatments and uses her creativity to apply them step by step to get the results you want. She is treating my skin right now and I am FINALLY having good results. Her pharmacy she works with can help with costs because of exclusive deals with companies so even if a product you want is not covered you can potentially get it at a lower cost! Would absolutely recommend this woman.

Absolutely aweful experiences with Dr Agha and her staff. She never asked for records for my previous treatment from referring doctor. Was in a rush and started performing laser surgery on my foot without it being properly anesthetised! None of her treatments worked and billing practices extremely poor! More interested in making money treating spider veins (not covered by insurance) than Issue I was there for.

Unfortunately there is not experience lately, I booked with her 4 times in the last 2 years and they cancel my appointment without notice every single one. Every of that timesI arrived, I found the office closed. No apology, no explanation. Next day I called they said they would never make that appointment because the Dr. wouldn't be in the office anyway. So disappointed, probably she never know how bad her front desk is handling her business.

I was diagnosed with skin cancer in a very sensitive area by my urologist. He did all he can do , which I am very greatful for. He recommended I see Dr. Agha for additional service and procedures. Dr. Agha and her staff do a terrific job. With the severity of my condition, they made me feel very comfortable and provide great service in all ends of the field. They are true professionals and I will recommend Dr. Agha and her staff to anyone in need of above and beyond assistance in dermatology.

Dr Agha was awesome. She immediately put me at ease and I did not feel rushed - or judged for obsessing over realatively minor skin issues. She listened to my concerns and addressed everything wihtout making me feel like I was wasting her time. Very knowledgable and made excellent recommedations. Will definietly keep going back.

Dr. Agha is a true professional with a friendly, caring disposition. She knows how to put you at ease, and she'll help you make informed decisions about your care. I've had several procedures and she's helped me with my skin care regimen. The results have been remarkable. While I've never felt rushed, she doesn't waste her time or yours. Easy to get an appointment and in-and-out quickly.

She recommended a procedure for my scar and told me to schedule with the front desk. The front desk said there wasn't a note in my file. I told them to call me when my file is fixed. And left. I called three times the next week and spoke to the front desk. The doctor never came around ... poor business
