Advanced Dermatology - Center for Laser & Cosmetic Surgery
Reviews
I've been to Advanced Dermatology several times for skin care (annual body exam) and for cosmetic procedures. In both cases I've had very positive experiences. I always feel like I get a thorough and professional body exam in terms of protecting myself against skin cancer. I also get good advice about any small dermatological problems that need treatment, such as dry skin, eczema, etc. The doctors and the staff are all professional, friendly, and respectful. As for cosmetic procedures, I wouldn't go anywhere else! I feel I'm in good hands at Advanced Dermatology and have recommended the practice to many friends, with good reviews from them as well.
I am writing this for my spouse Alvin. He was called to come to CVS for a drug. He was given a tube which the pharmacist said was ordered by Dr. Fox. At his visit the day before, no mention was made about any medication by Dr. Fox or his assistant. I was with him at the visit. He refused the product as he had no knowledge about it or what it was to be used for. This was a real lack of communication and unacceptable.
Certainly five star medical care. Not so sure "I loved it". When someone is burning a dozen or so spots on your head I'm not sure I would use the word "love" to describe the experience. That being said, no other dermatologist or allergist I've visited has been able to diagnose a rash or hive better than Dr. Fox and prescribe a cream or ointment that actually works and get's rid of it in less than a week. Love the new office and the staff is fantastic!
Yes for cosmetic skin treatment but my wife had melanoma and the doctor looked at it and told her it was nothing - just dermatitis (an allergic skin reaction to something). She was lucky that she ran to the city and got into Sloan Kettering and that she did not need radiation and / or chemotherapy. The lab that Advanced Dermatology uses, labeled her stage one A. Sloan labeled her stage one B. Stage two requires further treatment. If you are worried about melanoma, you need to find someone who looks in your butt crack and vagina and scalp because YES you can get melanoma in these places. You need someone to SCREEN not look, smile, and tell you it is nothing because at stage three, you can be dead in six months time. GO here by all means for laser and cosmetic surgery. DO NO GO HERE for melanoma screening!!!!!!!!
Saw Dr. Fox. The wait time was a bit long but I think it was worth it. My acne is already starting to clear up after starting the treatment he prescribed. Would definitely go back to this office again.
