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.

Communication could be clearer
I believe the staff could be more thorough when booking and checking appointmentsI have no criticism of Dr as I didn't get to see him, but my husband has and is very happy with him

OVER MANY YRS I found him to be an excellent dermatologist, BUT I have not gone back even though I need to be seen by a skin specialist . He can be rude,arrogant, and mean spirited.His business office is strictly money oriented and rude. The nursing staff are professional..so I guess if you can stand the rudeness and business office, go see him. I just do not need the whole non-patient friendly setting with him. He should not be seeing people, maybe be in research or some area of his profession where he does not interface with people.

Dr. still looking for NEW pts. ??? Licensed for 30+ yrs. That ought to tell you what you need to know right there! Horrible bedside manner and was very arrogant and acted like I was putting him out! He will not have to worry about that again. I would never go back!

I’ve been coming to Dr Datloff for 2 years now. He’s extraordinarily attentive and thorough with explaining anything to you. I’m a challenging case with multiple conditions due to pharmaceutical interactions that express themselves through my skin. Dr Datloff was able to address all my problems and gave real world solutions. Thanks Dr D!

This office is unwilling to provide biopsy results although they are already available. Staff feels to be too important and - insofar - treats patients completely inresponsible. Secondly, the treatment is handled by a different doctor at every visit. From a German point of view, this doctor's office has not organization of proper structure. The office's medical license should have never been granted or withdrawn immediately, respectively.

Dr Datloff is great. His office staff is NOT. I have to call repeatedly to remind them to call prescriptions in. They NEVER remember to do it the day that you had your appointment. Very frustrating because it becomes your responsibility to follow up. I am changing dermatologists for this reason.
