    Professional, courteous, and the first Dermatologist I have ever seen that takes their time and doesn't rush.

    Ani is #1! It's been a couple months since my first appointment/exam with her, but a neighbor was…read moreasking for a recommendation and Ani is the first person that came to mind. My new Internist had recommended a baseline skin exam so I set out to Yelp to see who was available. Ani was rated 4.5 stars and generally received glowing reviews. As others have stated, it takes a couple of months to be seen for an exam. She has offices in both Oakland and Lafayette, but since the Oakland office had more available time slots I opted for Oakland. She explained to me that, along with exams, she performs surgery on certain days therefore it can be somewhat difficult finding an appointment in the very near future. I was first impressed with her sense of humor and fun spirit. It's clear she loves her profession and she is very competent at her work. Like other reviews on this site, I found that she and her assistant were very prompt. The exam consisted of a lighted Jeweler type magnifying glass which she used to inspect my body from head to toe. The exam is very thorough. I was give a "clean bill of health". When I told her that I golf, she explained that not only should I wear sunblock and a hat but make sure to wear a golf glove on BOTH hands. She stated she sees golfer patients from time to time that have gotten skin cancer on the hand that is not normally gloved. I would definitely recommend Ani to anyone searching for a highly competent Dermatologist.

    I have been coming to this establishment for a bit. I think maybe i'm on my 2nd package with each…read morepackage contains 4 or 5 treatments. Danville is a tad far from my home, which is SF. But since I liked what I saw and heard from Dr. Ellis' YT channel, I thought it was worth the drive to come here. I saw Dr. Ellis for the initial consult but since they've made her a partner at the practice, all my treatments were performed by a nurse. And I love my nurse, her name is Emily, she seems competent and friendly and funny. What's not cool about this place is: 1) The pricing 2) The front desk The pricing is much higher than other cosmetic practices in the Bay Area, incl in SF where I used to and still get some treatments done. To compensate for this, you'll need to buy a package, just to make the pricing comparable to other places where you could buy as a single treatment. The front desk seems to be employing a gestapo approach to customer service. So I made a mistake in my calendar with the start time, so I ended up arriving 1 hour earlier than the 2:30p appointment time that they texted me. I arrived and I told them I had a 1:30p appointment, but was informed that my appointment was actually 3:30p, with a 2:30p start time just going into a room waiting while getting my face numbed. I told them it seems that I've made a mistake but I do have a full day ahead of me and I live all the way in SF so I wanted to see if they could please let my nurse know that I'm there early. I was asking them for an accommodation for a mistake that I clearly owned. They wouldn't talk to Nurse Emily. They told me Emily is all booked with not a 5 min to spare. I told them that's fine, if they could please maybe leave her a little note letting her know of my situation. Loren at Front Desk initally told me yes they would tell Emily when she's out with a patient to the cashier at front desk, but within minutes, she had told her manager in the office and her manager came out to tell me there's nothing they could do. They wouldn't let Emily know! They also told me they absolutely have no spare room to put me in. But when I was finally admitted to my treatment room, I saw a ROW of empty rooms. Bravo!

    Dr Ellis provides excellent cosmetic dermatology care and is kind and personable. I trust her…read morejudgement and conservative approach. she takes her time to come up with a plan. the office has free onsite parking and staff is friendly. its easy to make appointments

    This might be the most uncaring office I have ever worked with. I am a physician and would never…read moretreat patients this way. I understand being busy. I am also busy and have a 3 month wait for non urgent patients. But when you have established patients with urgent concerns you accommodate them in an urgent fashion. 3 weeks is not urgent. A 13 year old with a new onset raised itchy facial rash is not something that can wait 3 weeks. I told them this is not up to my expectations of care and is poor patient care and they said "we are sorry to hear that but we do understand if you will need to see another dermatologist. We have a lot of urgent concerns that has been requesting to schedule but we cannot accommodate everyone." Wow. As a physician I am appalled. I would never let my staff say this to a patient!

    As a physician, people ask me all the time, "Which Dermatologist would you send your family to?"…read more My emphatic answer, Dr. Paru Chaudhari! IS who I trust to take care of my family in the East Bay. I know they are in the hands of a highly skilled, caring, and extremely knowledgeable doctor, and feel so lucky to have the great fortune of having this incredible physician be part of their care team. She has the highest ethical standards and interactions with her support staff are always helpful too! I would encourage anyone who is looking for a Dermatologist they can count on to schedule a visit with her before her panel completely fills up!
