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.

Good dermatologist-awful bedside manner
I have no doubt Dr. Watsky is very knowledgeable and great at being a deep dive specialized dermatologist BUT he has possibly the worst 'bedside manner' that I have ever experienced. He talks over you and stops you from asking questions. I found him very rude. This was on two visits so can't say it was a 'having a bad day situation'. I also felt his assistant takes his lead because she was also unfriendly and, in my opinion, unprofessional. The front desk staff however was friendly at least.

Dr Watsky treated me during this pandemic via face time. Had a massive external infection and he took the time to call and really listen to me. Very detailed and unlike many docs let me talk and explain. Sent in the scripts I messed amd then I had a flow up with him a week klarer amd he was just as thorough and caring. Made me feel it mattered that I was hurting and then to feel better. Very personable Excellent care. !
