I've been seeing Dr. Chuang every 12 weeks for the last 4 years for psoriasis and rosacea & could…read morenot be happier with his care! I've never waited more than 15 minutes after my appt time to see the doctor. The front office staff is super accommodating - I showed up for an appt on the right day of the week and the right time, but I got the dates wrong and was exactly 1 week early! They managed to work me in the schedule so I could be seen that day instead of having to come back. Dr. Chuang is straightforward and I appreciate how he puts things in terms I understand. I have hormonal disorders that also affect my skin and he always takes the time to review my lab work from other doctors and talk through how everything is affecting my skin and what my options are.

Same experience as the other 1 star reviews: Dr Gary Chuang himself is great (no problems there!)…read more The problem is the office/billing. I wonder if Dr Chuang sold his practice to a private equity firm because the office is now all about profit and not about patient care. Also, I have been double billed, billed for crazy amounts (like hundreds of dollars for a skin check when I called my insurance and was only supposed to pay my $40 copay) and then it's soooooo much work to and hassle: his office just drains the life out of you and makes you want to give up and just let them keep your money. The final straw is that now the office has a new policy where you have to keep a credit card on file. This seems rampant for abuse! I decided to quit this practice rather than have to go through the hassle of this office changing my credit card aimlessly and fraudulently.

Melissa Maurer is AMAZING!!!! I went to see Melissa as my first time seeing a dermatologist. She…read moredid a very thorough mole check, and I felt very comfortable through it. I also asked if it was possible to remove two red spots on my face. She explained my options and which she recommended. She was upfront with price and what would happen. I agreed to cauterize them as they were dead blood vessels. She walked me through the process each time and counted down when she would do it. She also sent me home with aquaphor to protect it. I am so happy with the results!!!! The spots are flawless and can't be seen with no scars, and I'm so happy. As for the office, it's very well maintained and clean. I have never had an issue with making an appointment or checking out. All the staff are very friendly. & I am seen immediately at my scheduled time. There's validated parking at their lot.

I wish I had read these reviews before I went to California Skin Institute/Schweiger Dermatology…read more All I can say is they are shady. My exam consisted of Dr. Kwan looking at a few parts of my body and freezing one part of my face to look at one item on my skin. Then she told me to start using more sun block and covering myself up as much as possible when I drive. That's it. The next month I received a bill for over $330 for 2 "destruction of lesions". Huh? That never happened. I fought their billing department for over 7 months and finally got a revised bill that removed 1 of the procedures but left the other one. I just gave up and paid it so my credit wouldn't get affected. Never again with this office!

I scheduled an appointment in 2026 with Dr. Michelle Cheng instead. Dr. Cheng herself was efficient and prescribed the medications I needed, which is the only reason this office is receiving one star rather than zero. The rest of the experience was completely unprofessional. When scheduling, I uploaded my new insurance and my appointment was confirmed, leading me to believe the office accepted my insurance. Upon arrival, the front desk was chaotic. Patients were being called out by full name and even MRN numbers within clear earshot of the waiting room, which was extremely concerning from a privacy standpoint. I provided my insurance card and later asked for it back, at which point a front desk employee named Rebecca responded with visible attitude, stating she could not run my insurance because her computer was not working and repeatedly said they "just needed to get me into a room." I specifically asked whether the provider I was seeing accepted my insurance and was told yes. After a rushed and impersonal visit, I was left alone in the exam room for another 10 minutes without being told my appointment had ended. During this time, I overheard multiple conversations about other patients in the hallway. When I returned to the front desk to retrieve my insurance card, I was told my insurance "wouldn't go through" and was informed that it was my responsibility to ensure the provider was in network. I explained that I have PPO insurance and that my coverage is active and used regularly. Despite this, I was told my insurance was "not valid" and that they "hoped it would work when billing got it." Overall, this visit was disorganized, unprofessional, and deeply disappointing. I will not be returning.

I've been suffering scalp itching for decades now and I never knew how to deal with it. Whenever I went to physicals doctors never really dealt with it. Finally decades later my primary doctor had recommended me to go to a dermatologist. They recommended me Julie iwasaki, glen iwasaki, good dermatologist. I called Julie's practice first and was shocked to have a 3 month wait. But something told me if she's booked for 3 months ahead she must be good. However I had an immediate skin condition that needed to be dealt with and went to good dermatologist instead. I honestly didn't have the best experience there. I had 2 doctors one wasn't helpful and the second was way better but overall experience I didn't like so waited for Julie's appointment. She was super kind gave me immediate solutions and asked me to return in 2 months. I'm excited to finally to find a doctor that is willing to work with me. On a side note, I found out doctor Gwen Iwasaki is her mother and a rare doctor who can speak Japanese. The caveat is she only takes medicare patients. I know there is a whole Japanese community desperately looking for Japanese speaking doctors so if there are any patients with medicare needing Japanese assistance I suggest trying her mother's practice.
