Dr Rachel Ellis is fantastic. She removed a growth on the bottom of the eyelid. I was very nervous and scared, about one false move I could go blind. She had me comfortable and had me feeling great. No doubts were in my mind any longer. I have been a patient for well over 10 years and my children. I didn't need any procedures done before. I recommend Belaray. The staff is also helpful and amazing read more

I have been a patient of Dr. Amy Slear's since 2010, and I can say without hesitation that she is one of the finest physicians I have ever had the privilege of seeing. Dr. Slear is the complete package -- brilliant, kind, and genuinely compassionate. What sets her apart from other doctors is her presence. When you are in the room with her, she is truly with you. No distractions, no rushing, no sense that she has somewhere more important to be. You have her full, undivided attention, and that means everything when it comes to your health. Her responsiveness is equally impressive. In the rare event of an urgent situation, you can leave a message and trust that it will reach her. She consistently responds within 24 hours -- which, for a busy specialist, speaks volumes about her dedication to her patients. My entire family sees Dr. Slear, and we all feel the same way: she is exceptional. I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in need of a dermatologist... though selfishly, I'd prefer to keep her a secret so I can always get an appointment! In all seriousness, if you are looking for a dermatologist who combines top-tier expertise with genuine warmth and care, look no further than Dr. Amy Slear. Five stars. Without question. read more

Doctors are amazing. They take your time and appear to genuinely care. I do recommend Dr. Rachel Ellis. read more

Small amount of hair disappeared. Went to see Dr. Kumar and already seeing a major difference. Highly recommend! 5 star

Dr. Amy Slear is 5+ stars! She is smart, kind, thorough, and makes you feel like she has all the time in the world for you. She is more than a dermatologist, she goes above and beyond to help her patients in any way that she can. She is fabulous with communication, something that doesn't exist anymore with other offices that are hospital owned and/or corporate medicine. Dr Slear makes sure the patient and physician relationship are top priority. Can't say enough. Trust her with our entire family! read more

Dr. Rachel Ellis is amazing. I can't say enough good things about her. She is compassionate, empathetic and she will fight for you. I have Thyroid Eye Disease and needed surgery to bring the lids down so the corneas would be protected. My insurance company denied the surgery. Dr. Ellis spent hours on the phone with the insurance doctors pleading my case and she got it approved. Dr. Ellis did a fantastic job! I now Look like my old self again. My eyes are no longer dry and my self esteem is thru the roof. Make the appointment with Dr. Rachel Ellis. She always has your back. You will not be disappointed. She will be your advocate to the end. read more

Once they have your money they don't give a damn if you have a problem. Dr will never respond to request for help. Real fast talking - in and out. Fire walls everywhere no human response. Pathology is ridiculously long wait. Volume practice. read more

over 10 you're going to this dermatologist and have used their surgical end now more than once . I showed up to have mole surgery on the tip of my nose which they had already done the biopsy for and came back cancerous. Needless to say, I was quite nervous, but as I was checking in to have Dr. Ellis and his wife, The plastic surgeon do the surgery. I was advise that as of about 10 days ago They were no longer accepting my insurance. Interesting note just two days ago I received confirmation from my insurance that dr Ellis put in request for this surgery and was approved. Additionally, Dr. Ellis couldn't take the time to speak with me at all I was told by his reception staff I should contact my insurance and find out who else in another dermatologist office had staff who could perform a mole surgery quickly Or I could change my insurance insurance. Basically it came down to after over 10 years it meant nothing to Dr. Ellis and I guess he wasn't getting enough money from my insurance company for compensation. It was much easier not to notify me and wait until I actually had the appointment to come in for the surgery and to tell me they were not going to do it . it became my responsibility to find a replacement. The actions that they took were disgusting read more

I have had a few dermatologists in my lifetime. My biggest pet peeve is when they are quick to cut. I like conservative dermatologists. I also insist on billing transparency. Lastly, I like a physician who is will to have dialogue and doesn't act like a dictator. He is always open to communication. Dr. Ellis knows when to refer. I have been in contact with physicians on both sides as a patient and they have been my clients. I have worked, unofficially, in provider relations serving between insurance companies and the physicians' offices. Dr. Ellis is absolutely in this for the right reasons. He's smart, knowledgable, fair and patient. His staff is professional and always helpful. I highly recommend Dr. Jeff Ellis for all of your derm needs. read more

Wonderful staff & doctors.Dr Amy Slear is both kind,thorough & addresses all concerns.After initial body scan & biopsy,had follow up to have Cancer removed. Dr Ellis also was so kind ,thorough & patient.A follow up to remove stitches also went well .I highly recommended this office & staff for all dermatology needs. read more

My daughter and I have been Dr. Ellis' patients for many years and have the utmost respect for him and his staff. He is reassuring, knowledgeable, patient, thorough, and professional; he explains everything and is very clear in his instructions. He has done a phenomenal job taking care of my daughter's derm issues, and we highly recommend him. We would give Belaray more stars if we could!! read more

the dr spent legitimately 5 minutes with me. she barely let me speak and when she did, she looked at me like i was stupid. she examined my dry scalp for all of 7 seconds then sent me on my way with a shampoo that made my scalp worse and a 'come back in a month', leaving the room before i had a chance to tell her that i would be moving the following week for a few months so i couldn't schedule another appointment until i returned in january. now im stuck with a scalp worse than before in a different state and the dr hasnt bothered to check in to see how im doing considering she wanted to see me in a month from my appointment in may. the only thing ive heard from them is that they want my money for their terrible service. ive been to a dermatologist before that genuinely cared about me and my wellbeing but his office was far so i thought id try this one that was down the road. big mistake. never again. read more

Dr. Baigrie is the best! While she specializes in an array of dermatologic conditions and is quite knowledgeable as Dermatologist, I often see her for cosmetic treatments such as botox, filler and lasers. My priorities with my injectable treatments were to ensure the end result was a natural but enhanced look, and Dr. Baigrie did just that. She always makes sure to leave extra time to ensure I am properly nummed and that theres enough time during my appointment for her to answer any questions I may have. I have been a patient for a little over two years and have great solace knowing I am going to get and amazing result time every time I see her, achieving the esthetic I am looking for... Dr. Baigrie and Belaray Dermatology are highly recommended and my go to for all my dermatological needs! read more

Belaray Dermatology PC - a few days after a light filler treatment - Medical Spas Near Me - Hicksville, New York

I needed an appt ASAP, and only Mona was the provider that was available. I am not a fan of this PA. She was unprofessional, and appeared unsure of herself. I was worried about her findings, and she dismissed my thoughts and feelings. I Will be sure not to go to her again.(Even if she is the only one available). read more

When I got kicked off my fathers insurance when I turned 26, I picked a new dermatologist based off of reviews under my new insurance that was in close proximity to where I live. That's how I ended up at Belaray. I've only ever seen Dr. McCall for a full body check which she was extremely thorough with (literally checking my scalp down to the bottoms of my feet for unusual or questionable beauty marks) and for Botox to help with my hyperhydrosis in my armpits. She's a fantastic doctor who always listens to my concerns and we've always had great conversation. The assistants are nice as well! The place is always clean, and while waiting times can be a little long, I will never go elsewhere. On top of that, I was having major problems with Optum RX refilling my Botox prescription and getting it to the office. I ended up calling the office to explain my situation and how I've tried numerous times to have it sent. I sadly forgot the kind lady I spoke to at the office, but she went the extra mile to call Optum RX herself and refused to hang up while the pharmacy called me to tell me they were shipping out the Botox prescription. Without her, I would've still probably been calling that pharmacy wondering where my prescription is and why it's not getting delivered. I'm super thankful for her going the extra mile to help me out and to get me in the office ASAP. read more

This place is really pricey. They also spent only 5 minutes with my son, they were kind of in a rush with him. They put a liquid to solve something in his skin, it was 170 $, it didn't make any effect and they wanted to try again....with the same thing and another 170 $. We really didn't like the place. read more

The office is clean and new, with a large waiting rooms and magazines to read while you wait. The reception staff is always friendly. I love Dr. Slear, she's so kind and takes the time to listen to you and come up with the best treatment for your specific needs. I have an allergy to a component that is in a lot of topical steroids and pills, but Dr. Slear takes the time to figure out what medication I can and can't have by researching them. Other doctor's made me feel like there was no hope and there was nothing they could do to help me, I'm glad that I stumbled upon Dr. Slear, she's amazing. read more

Belaray Dermatology PC - Clean new office - Medical Spas Near Me - Hicksville, New York

If waiting is your game, questionable service your thing, you found the right place. Average wait time for me with six visits, 45-1 hour! Went in for the exact spot on my head, now booking three times. The first two, liquid nitrogen, burning sensation, few days the scab falls off. Twice now with exactly the same outcome. My third visit, exact same spot as I've said, liquid nitrogen. Felt no burning sensation, doctor Jeff used his finger circling the area as if smearing cold cream. Got home grabbed a mirror and long and behold, looked untouched. Will call his office today to complain and request my copay be returned. As I will need to see another doctor for the same exact spot again! read more

I must admit i do not do this often but right know i must share how wonderful my experience has been the last 3 visits to belaray. My wife has pushed me to get my body scanned for any imperfections of course i always joke my skin is perfect. i finally decided to make the plunge at first my wife had told me i must see Dr Amy Slear MD as she explained Dr Amy Slear is the best and she really thinks she would be the best after having to wait so long (4+ weeks) for an appointment i decided to see Amrit Kumar PA. Amrit Kumar PA is the most amazing person that i had the privilege of having help me with as you gusset right....... i am not perfect. He is very knowlegable very caring and great bedside manner. i would put Amrit Kumar PA in the same category as any doctor, and i would still choose Amrit Kumar PA. I just wanted to share my wonderful experience at Belaray and express my appreciation for such wonderful care. staff are wonderful. read more

Dr. Kumar is a great dermatologist. He listens very carefully, and always knows what treatment will work for his patients. Great experience with Belaray, would definitely recommend! read more

Was not going to write this review but then I got proper treatment & had to let the world know. Belaray is absolutely awful, I had been going there for years. Always waiting 30-45 mins before my appointment plus extra time in the little room. Little help with questions and I was prescribed a retinoid with improper instructions that made my skin even worse. DO NOT COME HERE. Since then I've been seeing Dr Eve Lupenko at Greenberg Dermatology in Syosset, never wait more than ten mins, questions welcomed and my skin is 100x times better than what Belaray left me with. Dr Kumar & Dr Slear (who is impossible to get an appointment with but I understand because she's one of the few kind people there) are good doctors but they need to be working at a different office because Belaray as a whole is horrendous. read more

The thing about doctors is, they're too busy. Dr Jeff is the exception. He rolled over in his chair, he shined a light, answered my questions, and solved my problem. I don't want to say what itched, but it does not itch anymore. The support staff was accommodating. And...get this...they honored their appointment time. I had a prescription, it was waiting for me at cvs. Seamless. I already booked a follow up to get my skin that healthy glow I've been hoping for. If only my favorite pizza places were as reliable. My goal is to be an after photo. We shall see! read more

Belaray has been a reliable go-to for many years for all my dermatological and cosmetic needs. The physicians are knowledgeable, caring and well versed. Support staff is friendly and accommodating. As with any doctors office these days, you may encounter the occasional wait time. Rest assured your appointment is just as important and the person before you. A little wait goes a long way for world class care. read more

The waiting room is very clean with some magazines - I never want to touch !! There's free samples as leaving which is usual since they get them for free. Take them. The sunblock is great and the others will be too! I never had an issue with the doctors and any physician assistant that one isn't on staff anymore .Not usually a long wait and a great staff to. I am glad with my new doctor! The patient rooms are clean and definitely up with support in technology. I am glad that they can accept lots of difference insurance. They also teach others ! The office personal had great personality and she was very kind. I'm strong on "bedside manner" I think counts a lot! Get a great look at those products I'll definitely take a look and might be getting a facial and massage so rebooting! read more

My whole family uses Belaray. We are quite impressed with the level of professionalism and personal care afforded to each and everyone of us. Definitely recommend them highly. Dr. Kumar, Dr.Ellis, and Dr.McCall totally awesome . read more

My son saw Dr Jeffrey Ellis at Belaray. He was efficient and was able to make an accurate diagnosis without causing my son any pain or bother. I appreciated his good judgement and careful explanation of the skin condition. I would recommend this doctor to others without hesitation Office is beautiful and clean Staff is friendly read more

I've been coming here for about 5 years now and I always see someone different, but whoever I see always takes the time to look at everything and is always very thorough and precise. Also, I have a lot of freckles and marks and if something doesn't look right they keep an eye on it by either doing a biopsy or taking a picture of it and checking on it next time. The office is very clean and the front desk staff is awesome! I feel extremely comfortable coming here. If ANYONE is looking for a dermatologist that I highly recommend this place. read more

Awesome and careful staff during the rigors of operating during a pandemic, doctors and staff always responsive to my concerns and most importantly diligent in diagnosis and treatment. read more

They are rude. Will not be coming back. The staff just doesn't really care.... it's like you're a burden. Was not a fan of the dermatologist either. I will be 26 in a few weeks and she talked to me as if I'm a child. read more

I developed a very itchy rash on my feet and arms. I had gone to Pro Health and was given a Medrol pack. I was told if it does not get better to see Dermatologist. I called Dr Ellis's office and explained it was an emergency, because the rash is now keeping me up at night and spreading. I was told on August 10 that the Doctor could not see till sometime in October. Really. Larry read more

I am always happy with Dr. McCall! She's very attentive and knowledgeable about latest research and health news!

Front Desk is awful and rude. I have been waiting for a prescription for about 2 weeks now from Dr. Ellis. They prefer you text them but they don't get back to the messages either. read more

Dr. Slear is a great and thorough dermatologist. Although getting an appointment is virtually impossible unless you are scheduling for several months out. Parking is very difficult unless you want to valet. The staff are easily confused and have a difficult time communicating office messages to patients. read more

Very clean office. Dr. Ellis was amazing with my mohes surgery today. The office staff is friendly and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend them! And by the way. Dr. Ellis is quite handsome read more

Being 100% Irish I've been going to Belaray for at least 5 years now. I've had at least 6 Mors procedures done, all by Dr. Jeffrey Ellis. It's quite scary when first told you have skin cancer, but the compassion and thorough explanation that Dr. Ellis and his staff provide every step of the way is truly comforting and professional. I have referred at least 50 people to this practice, and intend to continue doing so. Shout out to Amy the medical assistant who always has a smile and when asked a question will make sure she has correct answers, a true asset to the practice! Also huge thank you to Dr. Kumar PA-C who is treating my daughters cystic acne, his patient guidance and advice to an emotional teen has truly been a huge help. Highly recommend this place, don't wait to get that skin checked! read more

I have been coming here for over 2 years. Every time I go I have waited at least 45 minutes for my appointment. On top of that, the front desk and billing staff are so rude and condescending. They have messed up my appointment for my moms appointment. When I was asked about a problem I had, I realized they were reading my moms account and not my account. I told them the correct reason for me being there and they said they didn't have time to treat me because my treatment was longer than my moms treatment. The doctors are nice but the wait and other staff do not make it worth coming here anymore. read more

I made an account literally to leave a review for this office. The office itself was nice but their billing department was absolutely atrocious. Was sent a letter once 3 years after a visit saying I had past due bills that were about to be sent to collections. Tried contacting the billing personnel, Patty multiple times and left multiple notes with her co-workers with a good time to be called. She is never in office, ever. It took me 3 weeks to simply talk to her. I currently could not afford the random bill sent and they take no responsibility in their lack of communication. I'm forced to pay this bill or have my credit decreased. Take heed of the others saying this office is frustrating, that is an understatement. read more

I have been going here for years, following Dr Kumar. He is the most amazing person I've ever met who saved my skin after 12 years of cystic acne. All of the staff including all front desk workers (lovely Margarita), all assistants and especially Dr Kumar are all compassionate, kind, welcoming, and VERY helpful. This entire place is super clean and professional. I love all of you guys!! read more

We have been seeing Dr. Ellis and Dr. Slear for several years now ever since they were located in a cramped office on Old Country Road. Their new office in a completely renovated ranch house on A. Oyster Bay Road is spacious and bright. These practitioners are patient and thoughtful. I find that mornings are a bit less crowded than afternoons. read more

Terrible phone system takes 20 minutes to speak to someone every-time I call. Try somewhere else they are busy because of their location. I would not recommend this place to anyone. Frustrating experience! read more
