SHADY, GROSS, FRAUDULENT, MONEY HUNGRY PRACTICE - STAY AWAY AND SAVE YOUR MONEY!!! Old dirty office that smells weird. I went in as a new patient for a skin cancer screening and paid my $40 copay. The Doctor took 2 minutes examining me and asked if I wanted a skin tag removed on my back, so I said sure thinking nothing of it and that it was a part of my screening. He then grabbed a $5 can of wart remover spray and sprayed it for 2 seconds. I left the office knowing I wouldn't go back based on the office vibe and being very clearly treated like a transaction. A couple of weeks later I got a bill for $420!!! I reached out to dispute the transaction and they denied my dispute because "services were rendered". If I knew they were going to charge me for this, I would have 100% declined and either left it alone or removed the skin tag myself as it was purely cosmetic and not medically necessary. In fact, Im not even sure if it was a skin tag or wart or if I had anything caus I saw nothing. He didnt show me in the mirror and took zero pictures or evidence of what they claimed to remove. STAY FAR FAR AWAY!! FRAUD FRAUD FRAUD!!!
I wish I were able to give a review but the services were never completed so it’s hard to say. I went to the office and had a very standard appt with no complaints. Bit of a wait but not more than standard. The doctor said a sample would be required to give a diagnosis. A sample was taken and I was told to expect results in 3-5 day, and that at that point the appropriate treatment would be recommended. No word back, so after 8 days, I reach out via their patient portal. It directs me to a results link that is a broken url. I try again after 2 weeks and get an automated message that my messages have been received and will be responded to shortly. Even accounting for the holiday weekend, 2 weeks for a 3-5 days estimate is absurd. And counting…because I have still yet to hear back. And all this time I’m still waiting to learn what my prognosis and the recommended course of treatment is.
I have been a patient of Dr. Tumeh's a number of years, he is professional, focusing on your needs while explaining his findings addressing the necessary treatment. Highly recommend him as a top dermatologist!
I was recently seen by Dr. Hsiao for skin check for moles. He and his assistant were both friendly and professional. All my questions were answered. I would highly recommend this office and especially Dr. Hsiao for their expertise!
The reception staff, medical assistants, and Dr. Chow are great! Very kind, welcoming and Dr. Chow explained his treatment plan thoroughly and answered all my questions. Wonderful experience. Looking forward to working with this team!
