Dr. Matthew Katz, MD

In my previous visit 2 years ago, doctor's Physician Assistant Alexa saw me, and she was excellent. But today I was seen by Dr. Katz. He was very Rude and wanted to get rid of me ASAP. I showed him very small red dots appearing on my skin on my arm, legs, neck, shoulder area etc. And he kept on saying 'I don't see anything'. He did not bother to pull out small magnifier like Alexa did. Then, I showed him the photo of a large area (2x1.5') with a group of small dots. And he said 'I don't look at photos'. Then, I showed him 2 big areas and 4-5 smaller areas where those red dots left brown permanent marks before dying. He said nothing. Then I told him that Alexa had talked to my primary care doctor last time, and she gave me an ointment, which helped a lot. He rudely replied : 'then go to your primary care doctor...' and left me in the exam room.I don't think such doctors should be allowed to do medical practice. He did nothing... but he will bill Medicare and get paid.

During my visit, Dr.Katz gave me the quote for the visit with a tiny discount. Staff at the frond desk apparently did not want to argue with him, so charged me the quoted amount. As far as I was concerned I paid in full for what I was told right after the visit. As soon as I leave the office they issue a bill for the discounted amount to claim it back. Now is this ethical and respectful attitude towards customers? I feel mistreated and humiliated. Giving 2 stars for the ointment that he prescribed; it seems to have helped somewhat. I have not seen such petty and devious front desk staff yet.

He was not helpful in explaining why my itchy scalp continues to bother me. When I told him the shampoo I am using he said it wouldn’t work and then didn’t recommend anything to use instead. Very defensive and gruff when questioned. Bedside manner is weak, typical know it all doctor with little empathy.

I had a terrible experience with Dr. Matthew Katz. I arrived to my 9:45 appointment 3 minutes late, at 9:48. Due to issues with my referral from my primary doctor, I spent time talking to the receptionist. By the time things were sorted, I was able to start the electronic sign in, which was at 9:54. I waited for a while for a call back, and I saw Dr. Katz mention to the receptionist that because I was late, he would get to me when he got to me. I watched patients that came in later than me be seen. I waited for over 45 minutes, but after all this, I left without ever being seen, and felt extremely disrespected by the way this was handled, without even asking any questions. I was not a person in his demographic of patients, and I felt like I was overlooked, I felt uncomfortable, and I would not want someone like that touching my body. I would never want to be seen by someone that does not respect me or my time.

Rude, dismissive, and condescending: that pretty much sums up Dr. Katz. I went for a a recurring health concern that was healing up. He briefly looked at it, said there there was nothing for him to treat and that the skin was normal (it wasn’t; I know how my skin behaves.) He scolded me for not going to see him first. He is so out of touch that he doesn’t realize that it make take months to get an appointment with him. He didn’t pay attention to my concerns. The second time was the same: rude, dismissive, and condescending. He really wouldn’t listen to my concerns. Since this was during my yearly physical, when I told the nurse I still had the other unresolved issue, she told the doctor. I overheard him outside the door, telling her I couldn’t do the two exams because of money/billing. That I could not combine two appointments. I guess, had he found something during my yearly physical, he would had not treated it. I don't recommend him as a dermatologist

no good doctor bad bad bad r he needs to stop and give it up fareal he sorry

He is too stubborn. His prescription pattern is 50 years old, and could not understand the patient's seriousness about the disease.

Absolutely TERRIBLE! Kept referring to my son as a she even after correcting him. His name isn’t even unisex seemed intentional after a while. I walked out of appointment once he sneezed and chose to hold on to the tissue he blew his nose with while attempting to examine my sons skin. Before he could that I left . Do not go this place just awful awful awful. Please do your research on non recommended reviews on another site. There lies the truth!

He is smart and good and willing to explain things to me. He has top training and is very competent.

I am no stranger to dermal fillers, far from it. My experience with Dr.Katz was by far the best!

Katz Derm has the best tech ever. Does my bikini and under arm. They're the coolest. They make you feel comfortable. I found my laser place.

I couldn't be more pleased and excited about the refresh Dr. Katz did on my face using a combination of botox and fillers. Thanks!

Getting injections right is more than just medicine, it's an art form. Dr. Katz is an absolute artist- the results are amazing. Highly recommended!

This was by far the best the best botox experience I've ever had. He was explanatory, patient, and the outcome is natural. It looks better than 10 years ago, before the aging. I will be going back!

Best facialist in town! I have VERY sensitive skin and am always apprehensive when "trying out" a new service provider, and I must say that Dr. Katz superseded all of my expectations. He is extremely knowledgeable and attentive, and I feel safe/confident in his capable hands. I look forward and feel fortunate to having him as part of my routine. I highly recommend his clinic to everyone!

Truly impressed with the care my daughter and I received. Dr. Katz is Amazing. You will not be disappointed with the level of care and compassion. I would recommend this office to anyone with any skin issue or concerns. Top notch!

I have been here a couple of times, for acne treatment. After I had the treatment I have seen a dramatic change in my skin.

They give same level of comfort to all clients. I love how polite each staff is,this makes it a huge difference from other dermatology care provider.

Very positive experience. Professional staff and Dr Katz is very knowledgeable. My daughter was very comfortable with him and he explained everything. I highly recommend him

Dr. Katz is the best surgeon in Maryland. His works are probably the standards of dermatological practice here. I applaud them for this. Great job!
