Dr Campbell is wonderful, she treats my rosacea with thoughtful care and unparalleled expertise (and I tried to find a workable rosacea regimen with several doctors before finding Dr Campbell). Her assistants are always warm & kind, just as she is. And she will tell you straight if something isn't right for your skin, which is refreshing when some people just want to sell you as many expensive treatments as possible. read more

Dr. Campbell diagnosed and treated my skin for mild rosacea. She also treated a stubborn brown spot on the right side of my face. She is extremely knowledgeable and very good at communicating about treatment plans. Her office staff gets a thumbs up. read more

If you are a brown skin patient do not bother coming to this Doctor. Apparently you are not a candidate for 95 percent of the services offered. Doctor has weird habit of closing her eyes when she speaks, very off putting. Small office, no bathroom. read more

I had previously seen Dr Campbell when I lived in the area for Botox and filler (and still trust her more than anyone for this). While I am now a plane ride away I recently did a skincare 'checkup' as a virtual visit to go through my products, morning and night routine, and make sure that what I am using is what is actually best for me. My routine has gotten overly complicated and I had so many expensive, clean beauty products that I was using sort of ad hoc. After having a baby I also have some melasma that I just figured I would treat with a laser later. Dr Campbell went through everything with me, both assessing the products that I already have and discussing the ingredients/actives that would be most beneficial for my skin (to address current concerns or just optimize for smart aging and to try to erase the melasma). She told me which items I should keep in my routine, along with why, what I should add or subtract, and why along with a few helpful asides on current research to support her recommendations. She gave me options for her own line or drugstore brand options, and in real time also looked up some of my clean beauty favorites to see if they included the key ingredients that would make them effective for an updated routine. She did also make some suggestions for in-office treatments when I asked that would be helpful in optimizing my skin. Her office sent a write-up of her suggestions, which I then printed and taped to my bathroom mirror. It's also given me a whole new framework for how to assess new products that I'm tempted to get and know whether or not they might work for my skin. It was SO helpful and even in just a month my skin had more 'bounce' and looks and feels more even. I should have done this virtual visit sooner! So grateful for Dr.Campbell. read more

Dr. Campbell is fantastic! 10/10 recommend. I've visited for a variety of services (lasers, injections) and leave happy with my results each time. She's a caring doctor who takes time to understand what you're solving for and how she can help. read more

The most unprofessional office l have ever dealt with! l have been having VBEAM laser treatment for years at UCSF; however, they are so booked up that l had to search for other providers with availability. My first encounter was with Sarah, the office manager who was a bit gruff. She put me in a room and asked a few questions about the purpose of my visit. I was very surprised that l had not yet filled out the requisite paperwork with my medical history, etc. Prior to my visit, l was unable to log into their patient portal due to continuous, and problematic, log in issues. I made several requests to have the forms emailed to me, but these requests fell on deaf ears! After a brief consultation with Dr. Campbell, she offered to proceed with the treatment. But wait! I hadn't even filled out my medical history yet! I had to remind Sarah that l should do this prior to treatment. Papers were finally filled out, but l don't think they were even looked at to be honest. And so treatment proceeded. Two days after the treatment, on a Saturday, l developed extreme swelling under my eyes. After years of receiving VBEAM treatment, this had never happened before. I iced, elevated my head, took Benadryl, etc. but nothing helped. l called the office first thing on Monday but nobody answered. The answering machine recording directed me to their email address. l then sent an email with several photos of the swelling and still zero response! Seriously, two days have gone by since l sent an email with my concerns and still no reply. What kind of aftercare is this? I was also promised a prescription for Valtrex for a cold sore on my mouth, but it was never called in. If you take the risk of visiting this office, please be aware that you may well be on your own if you have any post-treatment problem. Extremely unprofessional and unethical! read more

Dr. Campbell is a miracle worker! I came to her with a super unusual case of severe stretch marks on my breasts after having breast augmentation surgery. Stretch marks are notoriously difficult to treat, but we eventually found that a Fraxel treatment was yielding results. After only 5 or 6 treatments my stretch marks are completely gone! You would never even know that they were there. The results are beyond what I could have imagined and I'm so happy that I finally get to show off my new boobies! On top of the miraculous treatment, this office is clean, the staff is kind and helpful and everything is always running on time. Dr. Campbell is knowledgeable and takes the time to explain everything to you before you decide on a treatment. I can't recommend her enough! read more

Dr Campbell is amazing!! She has addressed all my needs, anxieties, and insecurities about dermatology. 3 years ago I had a cycling accident that caused prolonged swelling and significant changes in one side of my face. Literally glad I could walk out of that accident. But since then, I've walked around with a side swoop across that eye trying to hide permanent facial changes, until I saw Dr. Campbell. My secondary goal was to feel great about my skin, makeup free in front of my own clients. With the help of Dr. Campbell, beautifully done Botox, and filler..I proudly walk through life with a fully exposed and makeup free face! I love my face. See her. Tell your story. You won't regret it. read more

TL;DR version: You will be happy you went to Dr. Campbell. My skin, my confidence, and my life have all been transformed thanks to Dr. Campbell. I have struggled for MOST of my life with chronic acne, even through my 20s. Nothing worked-- I tried over the counter topicals, changed my diet, even spent *hundreds* of dollars on luxury skin products. My skin would not stay clear no matter what I did. I sat down for my first appointment with Dr. Campbell and she very quickly knew what I would need to get the results I wanted. To be honest, I generally tend to go into medical appointments with a little hesitation and skepticism-- I'm always a little on alert to make sure my doctors/specialists are truly hearing me out when I describe my issues, and not just slapping me with a one-size-fits-all type solution. Dr. Campbell was nothing of the sort. She took plenty of time to get a sense of the larger picture around my skin regime/products, lifestyle/diet, and made sure she understood exactly the pains I was experiencing with my skin. She wrote up her suggested treatment course for my case and very patiently and clearly answered all my questions about every aspect of my treatment. I tend to ask a lot of questions in medical situations-- I like to understand HOW treatments are supposed to work and WHY the doctor would choose one treatment over another. Dr. Campbell is EXTREMELY knowledgable about dermatology and has a knack for very clearly explaining the process through and through. I was especially impressed at how many times she would mention a very recent medical study she'd read up on that was in connection to the therapies she was prescribing. In other words she is always staying on top of what is current in the field of dermatology, doing her homework, and making sure she can offer the best-in-class treatment for her patients. I put my trust in her, and I am so happy I did. In my case, I saw results really quickly. Even after just about 4 months I saw amazing results. (The before and after images I've attached are from about 4-5 months I believe). Throughout the process, Dr. Campbell was very available anytime I had questions or needed something on the fly (in my case, a few cortisone shots when I had sudden acne flairs). Now a little over a year later, I sometimes forget what its like to have acne at all. Anyone suffering from acne will know what I mean at how amazing this is. I would constantly feel low about my looks when my face was covered in acne, and now my skin has never been clearer. (go look at my prof pic haha!) All in all, I am so incredibly grateful to have a dermatologist like Dr. Campbell, who stays on top of whats current, is always patient and sincere, and is determined to providing the best care possible. Other things that I love about Dr. Campbell's practice: --The Office. Dr. Campbell has put so much attention to detail in the entire experience of her practice. From the moment you walk into the office, you feel like you've walked into something out of Architecture Digest. I'm used to going to doctors appointments and finding myself in uncomfortable stuffy waiting rooms that literally fill my soul with dread. Dr. Campbells office however is beautifully and intentionally designed, which always makes me feel immediately more at ease. --Products In my case of treatment personally, Dr. Campbell recommended I use her Benzoyl Peroxide Wash from her own brand of skin care products. While I'm usually really skeptical about products like these, or about doctors who might feel pushy about their products-- I got the opposite here. Dr. Campbell provided alternative options for each part of my treatment I could use, but in a few different conversations she also demonstrated to me just how intentional she was at developing each of the products in her own line. I remember her telling me that for the benzoyl peroxide wash, there was some ingredients in a lot of the typical over the counter products that she says are less than ideal for our skin-- so she worked on creating the ideal product she wanted to see. It has been working phenomenally. BUT AT THE SAME TIME-- Dr. Campbell was also real about telling me when a simple over the counter solution would work. She told me I should give up on certain luxury skin brands I was using at the time and instead to swap for Cerave or Cetaphil for certain things. I love that i never felt pushed to buy more expensive products when not needed-- its the transparency and authenticity that does it for me. Dr. Campbell does also have other products from brands like Skincueticals and Elta MD that she recommends--again, with good reason. I always would hear explanations like "This brand's product has the highest concentration of niacinamide that you can get over the counter." But again, never in a way that felt pushy. --OVERALL Book the session :) You will be cared for every step of the way. read more

Dr. Campbell is an excellent dermatologist. I've gone to her for milia removal as well as for dysport for my crow's feet and jaw. She's professional and kind. Her office is lovely and I am always seen quickly. She does not push products, botox or filler and I appreciate that she gives a natural look. read more

Dr. Campbell is an amazing doctor! I took my boyfriend to have her look at some odd and questionable skin spots. She is extremely knowledgeable and kind. She knew how to ease his mind and explained all of his options. He was super nervous and really needed that hand holding, and she was very reassuring! read more

Dr. Campbell is an excellent and knowledgeable dermatologist and I am extremely pleased with my experience at her office. She was empathetic, provided autonomy on what I needed as a patient while also providing expert advice on the best approach, and delivered excellent results. I have been to other dermatologists and what makes her unique is that she provides a comprehensive patient care as opposed to just treating skin problems. She was caring, present, and listened carefully. You can tell that she really cares about patient experience from all the details that have been put into her practice, including the gorgeous office space, helpful front desk staff, extra steps to protect patient privacy, and ease of online bookings, just to name a few. I am so glad I found her practice and will be referring all my friends and family members to go see her! read more

Completely inept!! Very rude assistant and Dr. Campbell herself has no bedside manner. There are far better choices out there and places to go that actually care about their clients. Don't waste your time or money!! read more

Caren is the best derm in the Bay Area. I came into Caren's office feeling "dull" and thought I wanted facial fillers. After listening to my concerns and current routine - she recommended starting with improving the quality of my skin through an anti-acne / anti-aging regimen rather than going with fillers. She is a derm with a lot of integrity and won't sell you things that you don't need or won't fix your concerns. After a year, the quality of my skin has improved dramatically. She has done lasers, undereye filler, and PRP treatments on my skin with fabulous results. I'll be traveling back to SF for Fraxel in the fall to see Caren. She is the only derm I'd trust with improving "easy to scar" Asian skin. read more

HIGHLY recommend Dr. Campbell. She is an incredible Dermatologist. I have always suffered from acne and that was one of my main insecurities, I have always thought I my self treatment was the best it would get. Then I heard about Dr. Campbell, flew out from Dallas,TX to see her. With small changes, my skin has never looked better. I am so thankful to her with helping my skin and making me more confident in it!!!!! read more

I have been seeing Dr Campbell for nearly four years and I can't recommend her enough! I first visited her as I hadn't seen a dermatologist in several years and wasn't happy with the redness tone and texture of my skin. Little did I know, I have rosacea! She quickly diagnosed me, helped me revamp my daily skincare routine with rosacea-appropriate products, and recommended a series of Vbeam treatments as well as regular updates. It was a game changer! I can't believe I waited so long to fix my skin!! Since then, she's been a steady and reliable partner as I've dipped my toes into anti-aging treatments. Dr Caren always listens carefully to my concerns and makes recommendations in-line with my comfort level. She is direct and no nonsense, but kind and respectful. After four years together, I fully trust her knowledge, perspective and recommendations! She is a gem! read more

Caren is amazing!! I had a skin consultation from her virtually and she got me on a skin care routine that has my skin glowing and in such good shape. I was so happy when she opened an office in Napa and was able to get filler in my lips in her new office. The office is beautiful and peaceful and I felt like I was in great hands the entire time. Highly recommend! read more

Dr Caren Campbell is fabulous, along with her staff. I wouldn't suggest going anywhere else.

I moved out of state recently and I cannot fully explain how much I miss Dr Caren Campbell. Her office is clean and beautiful, staff is friendly and they always follow up after any procedure. Dr Campbell herself keeps it real about what will help you with your concerns and what will not. She does injections herself for everything including botox which is so reassuring knowing a true expert is taking care of you. I've seen her many times (fraxel, v-beam, clear and brilliant, filler, botox, skin checks and mole removal) and I've ALWAYS been pleased, my skin looks better in my 30s than it did in my 20s. I wish I could teleport her to NYC to be my derm again! read more

I have been seeing Dr. Campbell for about 4 years, and am hooked forever! It's easy to get an appointment on short notice and her staff is extremely helpful and well trained. She is brilliant, honest, kind, and patient but most of all I love her spunk and energy, which is a breath of fresh air in an industry that is traditionally dominated by older men. If you are seeking treatment for a straightforward issue, she is efficient and direct. If you are seeking treatment for a more complex issue, Dr. Campbell will help you find a dynamic, multi-tiered solution as a long term approach. If she doesn't provide a specific service and it's the best treatment for your condition, she will give you a referral for outside treatment without blinking. I love the new virtual consultations as a good first step before making an in-person office visit. I wouldn't ever see another dermatologist. read more

I love Caren. I have been to countless derms over the years, and only Caren took the time to really evaluate my skin, get to know me and what I'm comfortable with, and make treatment recommendations with both in mind. My skin has never looked better. She has never tried to upsell me, and everything she has suggested has worked miracles for my crazy sensitive skin and low maintenance lifestyle. I know I will age gracefully in Caren's hands. She's the best. read more

Dr. Campbell is so amazing. Highly professional, knowledgeable and skilled. I wouldn't trust anyone else! My skin has improved significantly since starting to see her over a year ago. Highly recommend! read more

Dr. Campbell is amazing. She deeply listens and draws from a wide range of expertise that includes both medical dermatology and mental/holistic health. Her use of PRP on my scalp worked wonders for me, and she was extremely thoughtful and supportive during each appointment. I can't recommend her enough! read more

Dr. Campbell is truly wonderful. Her office is calming and supportive, and you feel like you are seeing a friend. She is skilled with a variety of lasers and treatments, and I recommend her to anyone looking to improve their skin! read more

I feel so lucky to have found Caren! She handles my skin sensitivities and concerns with supportive education and solutions. I am so glad she has a Napa office location in addition to her thriving San Francisco location. She is a life saver! It's also beautiful, calming office. read more

Loved everything. Super quick response when I made the appointment. Great staff and Dr Campbell is knowledgeable, very nice to talk to and seems to really care about her clients. Got an email from her staff a day after the appointment to check in which was a great touch. Will definitely go back. read more

Like many other reviewers, I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Campbell. Everything about the experience with her was first class. From the beautiful office and friendly staff, to Dr. Campbell's thoughtful and personalized consultation -- I was in the best of hands. She is honest, extremely considerate in her recommendations, and super knowledgable about both medical and cosmetic dermatological issues. I used to have to go to two different dermatologists but now I can just go to Dr. Campbell for all my needs. Can't recommend highly enough! read more

This review is long long overdue. Caren is the skin whisperer and her office is a beautiful respite from the craziness of life. I have been guilty of spending $$$$ on lotions and potions at Sephora--never sticking to a plan. Caren simplified my skin care saving me money (and less waste) and I've seen amazing results. Because topicals take time and I am an instant gratification kind of gal, she performed a series of Clear+Brilliant laser treatments which were painless but faded my brown spots and brightened my skin. No exaggeration my skin went from sun damaged to glowing!!! Caren is so down to earth, easy to talk to, and is forthright in which treatments are worth the investment. If you need a dermatologist, cosmetic or medical, I cannot recommend Caren enough! read more

Dr. Campbell is EXCEPTIONAL. She is as brilliant as she is patient and kind. Wouldn't trust anyone else

Caren has totally changed the way I think about skincare. She simplified my routine and now I'm addicted to it. My skin looks so much younger than it did even 3 years ago when I started going to Caren. I get compliments all of the time about how my skin looks and she is the only person I would ever go to for injections of any kind! read more

Doctor Caren Campbell not only amazing doctor, but also a great person. Helped me with my broken capillary problem. I know that she can help me with any dermatology issue even during pandemic. Thank you and Sarah very much for what you are doing! read more

Dr. Campbell is an incredible doctor and does fantastic work. I always leave her office feeling great. The office is beautiful and her assistant Sarah makes the whole experience even more enjoyable. Another perk, online booking is very easy as well as the checkout process. This is by far my favorite dermatologist office in the city! read more
