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. Applebaum is excellent and the reason continue to use the services of Advance dermatology.

Very rude doctor
Dr Applebaum was very rude and arrogant.Didnt answer my questions. Gave me a wrong diagnosis. Gave me medication for a condition that I didn't have. Made my face red. Do not go to this dermatologist.

Dr. Jason applebaum was super nice and straight to the point. Asked why I was there. And got right down to business. Was confident in his diagnosis and reassuring of prognosis. I would definitely revisit the practice because of his friendly staff and himself. I only had one not so great thing to add, the waiting area was kind of dirty. The ceilings and vent system was beyond filthy. I’ve never seen a vent that dirty. I was hoping it was just dust and not mold. Everything else was pretty good. No complaints with customer service and patient care. Just clean the waiting area. Please and thank you.
