This office should be you office of last resort, if you have no other options and are suffering from a life-threatening malady, then, I would still suggest you look elsewhere.

I had my first visit to this wonderful facility on 7/29/13. I had a growth on my left sideburn that I wanted checked out. After waiting for almost an hour beyond the appointment time I was finally see by Dr. margarita Lolis. Dr. Lolis spent literally less than 2 minutes with me within which time she said "looks like cancer, but not the bad kind". Very reassuring words from a doctor without any tests whatsoever.

I was given a printed handout that said the office doesn't call if the results are negative. But, if I wanted to know the results I should call the office after 2 weeks. Not having heard anything, I did just that, I called the office after about 2-1/2 weeks. No one seemed to know anything. I was told to expect a call from doctor within a day or two. No call, nothing. I wrote a nasty email to the practice administrator over this past weekend and early Monday morning I got a call from her saying I had basal cell carcinoma. She suggested a consultation visit with Dr. Goldberg, the practice chief honcho. So I did. My appointment was for 2:50 pm. After threatening to walk out if I wasn't seen by 3:20, I was finally ushered into an examination room. Once there I was asked a series of questions, in this order:

1. Do you have any heart problems
2. Do you have a defibrillator
3. Do you have a pacemaker.

Wouldn't it make sense that if someone says they don't have any heart problems they wouldn't have either a defibrillator or pacemaker?

After waiting another 20 min, the esteemed Dr. Goldberg hadn't shown up, so I got up asked for a copy of my pathology report and told the assistant that I wouldn't allow Dr. Goldberg to touch my cat.

So, if you enjoy long, long waiting room waits, and then long examination room waits, then this is the pace for you.

I would give zero stars if that we're allowable.

Dr. Goldberg is amazing. He makes you feel comfortable- taking time to explain procedures fully and answer questions, addressing concerns. With all of his experience and expertise you can be confident that you are in very capable hands. His support staff is warm, knowledgeable and supportive. I had a wonderful experience.

Ultherapy is slightly uncomfortable and when it was, Dr. Ciocon's sweetness mitigated the discomfort. Every experience here has been great-and with wonderful results! Every staff member, most especially Dr. Ciocon, has already insured that I will recommend. I have. More than once!

Dr. Goldberg is the best! He has made a 100% improvement in my skin texture, aging, and skin appearance. I travel 150 miles for my treatments with Dr. Goldberg, now for 10 years! He has a wonderful bedside manner and is number 1 in his field. His staff is very attentive and personal. Everyone is very professional and well trained.
