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. Kole seems knowledgable about skin care but is not very warm with patients. She seems to want to get in and out and is over scheduled. The patient needs to advocate for themselves fully. Does not feel like she is on your side or wants to develop a care plan with you.

Dr Kole is an amazing dermatologist. I saw her for cosmetic procedures and without a doubt she is the best. Dr Kole did a chemical peal and some fillers on my face. She also recommended a great skin care routine along with products. My skin looks better than it has in years. She easily took a decade of aging away.

Do not go to her. She was rude and I just got the bill from seeing for a consultation. They charged me 400$, she was with me in the office for less than 10 minutes. I can’t believe they can get away with this.
