Dr. Sandra Read, MD

I agree with some of the negative comments in the reviews. I was a patient of Dr. Sandra Read for a long time. My impression of her was borderline. She has a cold vibe. My most recent visit confirmed what was my own initial negative perspective of her. During my visit, I felt rushed—less than 15 minutes. She barely gave me the opportunity to address all the concerns that I had. She recommended products for my skin, that included her own 'Brand Products' which are very expensive. When I asked her about a product I currently use, she dismissed me. She was obviously was just interested in pushing her products. Before leaving, I mentioned that my hair was thinning at the front.

Dr. Read is a superb professional. Her application of nitrogen to eliminate potential skin cancers on my face left only slight traces. This is in stark contrast to the myriad of red blotches other dermatologists' procedures have left. She is precisely on time for her appointments and provides a thorough diagnosis and response to the medical problems presented. She is strongly recommended.
