Dr. Oliver is amazing! I came to him for a skin issue that have been getting worst for the past 3…read moreweeks. I couldn't even sleep because it was so itchy, painful, and stinging all over my face and neck. Got misdiagnosed by another dermatologist and I came for a second opinion. He checked my skin with a bright light and confirmed it was a bacterial infection. Seriously thought I wouldn't ever recover... Dr. Oliver is so patient and answered all my questions. He even told me to not worry about my skin. Just take the med/ointments as he said and relax, leave the worrying to him because that's what he does. Within 2 days of taking the oral med, my swelling was all gone. After 4 days of both oral and tropical med, the redness on my face was gone! Seeing a specialist always worries me because they can get very expensive but I am SO THANKFUL that I found Dr. Oliver. His pricing was very reasonable as I pay out of pocket and his office visit price covered the ointments/oral med he prescribed for me. Really appreciate that. I actually just visited Dr. Oliver for a follow up appointment today. Again, he was super patient and answered everything I asked!! Did not feel rushed at all. Was hoping he clears me from the prescribed meds but he suggests to continue for another week just to make sure everything is cleared completely. Still dealing with some lingering dryness and tightness. Hope that go away soon. Cassandra the receptionist was super sweet and helpful as well! They offer water or tea while you wait. If you are dealing with a skin issue, I highly recommend Dr. Oliver and his team.

I've been to CSI for about a year and a half and have been to the following locations: Marina/cow…read morehollow, Presidio, Nob Hill and Daly City. The reason for that is because I really liked my provider, Danielle Daravos. She was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, this review is not about her whatsoever. She is amazing and I'm sad that I will no longer be seeing her as she helped clear my acne a lot. However, CSI is absolutely horrible. The front desk receptionist are the rudest, most unhelpful and unpleasant people to talk to. There has always been a history of CSI having had communication but recently it has gotten worse as they have implemented AI into their phone answering system. I mean if you couldn't reach anyone before, GOOD LUCK to you now. I was calling to reschedule my 3 month check in and called 3 different office probably 5 times each over the span of 2-3 days and FINALLY good heavens I reached someone just to be put on hold! I had already decided that due to such horrible communication and horrific front desk staff that my time here was over. I'll be moving on to a dermatology office that is better equipped. While I think the doctors and PA's here are great and my negative review (at least for me) is not a reflection of their care, the hassle of trying to reach someone helpful is really not worth going here. There's other doctors and PA's at other offices that do tremendously better. PS if you want to skip the AI agent say "transfer me" and it will automatically transfer you.

If I could give them 0 stars, I would! I loved my doctors, Danielle and Dr. Francis Husain, but…read moreit's too bad they are in this group and stuck with the AI phone system. On two different occasions my appointments have been canceled with no warning. The first time I made 4 appointments and 3 of them were canceled by the bots. I just called to confirm my MOH surgery that was supposed to be in a few days since I haven't received any confirmation and again, my appointment was cancelled by the bots. I am done and finding a new dermatology group!

Their voice mail tells you to text, which is really unprofessional and weird and which I hate, but I did text them. I typed out a clear and concise message about needing an appointment - a follow up to skin cancer removal no less! Yes, even knowing skin cancer was involved this dermatology office blew me off !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not only did I never get called back from voice mail but I never got a call back from that text which is what they seem to prefer! I waited a week and called again. There's an option for the office manager so I pushed that button and left her a detailed message that I am a patient and gave her my frustrating history with trying to get a call back. Well guess what? Miss Office Manager didn't bother to call me back either. Now that the medical assistant who I really liked is gone and they have shown me repeatedly that I'm not valued as a patient - buh bye! By the way, the doctor her self is one of those who is breezes in, and breezes out before you know it. 6 minutes the last time according to my iPhone stopwatch !

Only one small concern is sometimes if you have to use both the SF Facility and the Daly City one (she has two locations depending on the procedure), ensure your insurance company does not confuse the location as this caused confusion for me, the staff and others (issues about being in network and then a denial, etc.). This was all cleared up. The procedures are all minimally invasive, short, and you are back on your feet almost instantly. The doctor speaks with you during the procedure, time flies and next thing you know it is over. Also the good thing she is a provider that takes PPO, HMO and most others so hope this helps in your search/this review.

I'm really happy with how everything went, and my hope is that my leg won't feel the dull pain and achiness from blood not flowing properly.

I came…read morein for a combination of structural fillers, CO2 resurfacing, and IPL, essentially looking for a comprehensive, non-surgical facial rejuvenation. What stood out to me from the beginning was the time Dr. G took to explain the process, discuss the options, and walk me through each step. I always felt informed and comfortable with the decisions we were making. Just as importantly, there is no high-pressure sales approach. Dr. G lets you do what you want, at your own pace, without pressure, while providing professional guidance along the way. The results are exactly what I was hoping for. I look refreshed and rejuvenated, but still completely like myself. The changes are subtle and natural. I couldn't be happier with the experience or the results, and I'm very grateful to Dr. G for her skill, care, and attention to detail.

The entire staff has been friendly and courteous. I would have given the center 5 stars if it wasn't for the billing department. If you want to pay your bill over the phone, they make it very difficult. They NEVER answer the phone, so I always call and leave my number for them to call me back. I am currently trying to pay my bill from March 2022...I have left 8 messages so far. Since it is now June, I will call the doctor's office and ask the staff there to help me get my bill paid.

This place is a textbook example of how a dermatology practice should not operate. My visit here…read morewas a complete disaster from start to finish. In a 12‑minute appointment, they managed to squeeze out an office copay, then quietly sent another bill weeks later for a so‑called "treatment" that lasted maybe three seconds. My insurance was hit with more than $800 for that single visit. Then the provider told me to come back in two weeks--only to repeat the exact same thing: another ~$800 charge, another useless appointment, and still no proper treatment. The billing department clearly pushes every code they can get away with, and they do it aggressively. It's predatory, plain and simple. It's no surprise you can walk in here same‑day while every reputable dermatology clinic in the area has a long waitlist. People catch on fast when a practice prioritizes billing over care. I had to go elsewhere to finally get real medical attention from a dermatologist who didn't treat patients like billing opportunities. If you value your skin, your wallet, or your sanity, avoid Schweiger. They've turned dermatology into a cash‑grab machine, and patients are the ones paying the price.

Since these peptides are not FDA-approved yet, I decided to purchase from a medical clinic to avoid getting something intended for research use only. I called the day before my appointment and specifically requested to see the vial before it was prepared into syringes. When I met with the doctor, she simply said no, turned around, and then told me she could not work with me because I did not trust her. There was no discussion or explanation. I found her reaction dismissive and extremely rude. If my request was unacceptable, they could have told me when I called and saved me an hour of driving. Given the concerns surrounding non-FDA-approved peptides, I believe politely requesting to see the product (label) of what I am purchasing is reasonable. The doctor's reaction only made me more concerned about the source of what they are selling. It is totally fine that the dr wants to hide what they are selling. What makes me upset is wasting an hour driving in for this unpleasant experience.

If you are anything like me, going to any medical appointment is always the last thing you want to…read moredo. In fact, making the appointment is usually put off for as long as possible. Luckily, I can (sort of) afford this kind of character flaw since I am a healthy pig. However, even we piggies sometimes need to pay attention when the message is flashing that says, "Are you in the running for the Stupidity on a Monument Medal?" How can a visit to any medical practice be perfect? A question that up until now has been answered with; it can't. Wrong! Or as my wonderful wife would add, "As usual!" From the initial phone contact making the appointment, through the beginning of the visit, through the examination and then the resolution to my problem, it was...well perfect. Friendly, efficient front office and the very warmest, extraordinarily competent, open and relaxing practitioner of Dermatology that you could possible want. My words to Dr. Jacobson on my way out were, "I hope that all my future visits to the world of medicine could be just like this!" I can't really tell you how much I meant it. This is medicine at its finest and Dr. Jacobson is a gem. The only pea under the mattress? I had to go back to the person who referred me and say she was right. What you ask is so terrible about that. Ha, the married guys reading this already know, it was my wife.

I switched insurance and wasn't too pleased with my last dermatologist, so I thought Id find a new doctor. She had great reviews on Yelp so I gave it a shot. The whole visit was her checking my skin and writing an Rx. I have Anthem and knew my plan requires me to pay half of the total cost of the visit. I was expecting to be paying less than $100. I got the actual bill, which looked nothing like what I had in my head. Total charges were $380, which means I have to pay $178.74; half still seems like way too much just to be looked at. I called the doctors office to discuss my bill to figure out why it was so high. The receptionist told me that Sutter doctors charge $300+ for an initial visit. I really wish I had known that going into the appointment, otherwise I would have found another doctor. I will not be seeing any doctor affiliated with Sutter in the future. If you have insurance that will cover the whole visit, I would recommend her, otherwise if youre paying out of pocket or have to pay for some of your visit, go somewhere else.
