Dr Lander removed a Basal cell node from neck . He was so pleasant and easy to talk to and made the procedure painless and quick . You could tell he had done this a million times and that he knew what he was doing . Very professional manner . Would highly recommend. read more

I made an appointment with Dr. Lander for a minor skin rash that didn't seem to want to go away. I called and made the appointment for the following week but the next day was called and told it had to be rescheduled due to an office error. Another appointment was made but the next available was another full week out; fortunately this was nothing serious. When I arrived for my appointment I found the office staff to be very nice. My wait time beyond my appointment time was 45 minutes; a bit longer than what I normally expect from a doctor's office (Return visits confirm that this lengthy wait time is the norm). Dr. Lander was not rushed when he examined me. He took his time, asked me questions, really listened to my answers and explained in detail what the causes of the rash might be and possible treatments. The medication he prescribed worked quickly and took care of the rash. Little children no longer looked at me in horror and women no longer fainted at the very sight of me. Overall a good experience. read more

See all

THE VERY BEST! As a very fair person, I've had many skin cancers and seen my share of dermatologists, Dr Lander is, by far, the very VERY BEST! He has performed 2 very complicated MOHS procedures on my face and he is like an artist, and I am highly sensitive and a big baby! I only wish he would see me for my regular skin checks! If you're looking for a MOHS surgeon, go see Dr Lander! read more

This review is for PA Steven and assistant Amber. Before seeing them, I've visited other doctors for this skin issue I've been dealing with for a year. The doctors I've seen are useless compared to Steven, they prescribed me pills and creams that didn't work and they never even touched the problem. I visited Steven today assisted by Amber. They made me feel extremely comfortable and took care of me step by step. The skin issue I was dealing with for over a year they took care of it in 30 minutes. I felt no pain. I really can't appreciate what they have done for me and I won't hesitate to visit them in the future. If you have skin problems that you're unsure, embarrassed, and or hurting you. Please trust me and make an appointment with them. Thanks again for taking care of me. read more

I came in for a Pilar Cyst removal and Dr Lander was awesome, the whole procedure took less than 30 minutes and his staff was super nice and made me feel Comfortable through out the whole thing! Thank you again :) read more

Dr. Lander is an easy going yet very thorough doctor. I go to him yearly as I'm an avid surfer and I have done some damage to my skin throughout all the years. It always feels great to go in there and have them check everything up and give you the all clear and I would recommend everybody to do this yearly. Whether you're going for a yearly check up or need some special dermatology issues taken care of I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Dr. Lander to my friends and family read more

Dr. Lander is very professional and honest. I went to 5 different dermatology offices for my rosacea. I highly recommend Dr. Lander. Super knowledgeable physician in Orange County . Thank you. read more

Dr. Lander is a true professional; unequivocally the best surgeon (medical practitioner) I've encountered. Assuming there was a 6-star rating, he'd receive it. He exemplifies each of the qualities one searches for in a doctor: thorough, versed, pleasant, caring, and efficient. A Dr. Lander visit is truly the gold-standard in dermatological (medical) services. I seldom extend medical references as there is little upside in doing so. However, after 10+ years of exceedingly positive interactions (including countless biopsies, five Mohs surgeries, numerous stitches, and a few staples), I can confidently state you'll be pleased by your experience with him. Though I'm likely the world's most obsessive and hard to please patient, I always leave happy and ready to evangelize how great my visit proved to be. Thus, I've now referred eight patients (including my wife, mom, and friends) and each have sincerely thanked me for doing so. Though it seems odd to write a review for a doctor, Dr. Lander deserves the accolades. He's a true master of his craft. It's worth noting the other team members at Beach Cities Dermatology Medical Center are great too. They've collectively made me and my referrals "totally satisfied patients." read more

I don't ever post bad reviews, but this was needed. The receptionist, Claudia is probably one of the worst and uncomfortable receptionist I've ever spoken to. She actually got mad and agitated with me for asking simple questions with booking an appointment and hung up the phone on me. I've never experienced this in my life. Very, very unpleasant person. read more

I am beyond angry! I made my appointment to see Dr. Lander 2 months ago, and just received my reminder call which stated that I am now scheduled with some new doctor at their practice, WHEN I SPECIFICALLY STATED THAT I ONLY WANTED TO SEE DR. LANDER AND WAS ASSURED THAT I WOULD SEE HIM! I have great insurance (Anthem Blue Cross PPO) which pays well, so I don't get why Dr. Lander decided to brush me off, but it is beyond unprofessional. All you had to do was call me weeks ago telling me that you don't want my business, so that I would have time to find another doctor. I have skin cancer, and have been patiently waiting! COMPLETE DISGRACE. One other thing. I called your office this morning to state the above (about being placed with another doctor), and I was put on hold, FOREVER. NO ONE EVER RETURNED TO PICK UP THE PHONE. read more

I've been cursed with oily skin and acne since I was a teenager. I've been to more Dermatologists than I can count, most of which I've been unhappy with. Today I finally found a Dermatologist that I love! After having a dry spell of almost 5 years with no acne what-so-ever (that's right NO acne on this girl's oily and acne prone skin), I finally got my first pimple(s). And not just one pimple, but a massive load of them all across the right side of my chin on my face. It's just disturbing looking and mostly due to stress. Finally made an appointment today to have my face checked out and to get much needed medication for it. Appointment was at 10:45am, got there early, but the Doc was running late (typical of doc offices). Got in the room at about 11am. Doctor came in my room 5 minutes later. He answered all my questions, was very knowledgeable and gave me good pointers on skin care. He removed a couple of my cyst like acne bumps (mine tend to get big and red and gross looking). It was quick and pain free. He gave me an oral medication to take to get rid of the other, bigger, nasty looking bumps on my chin. I also have a couple of darker spots on my face due to the sun, so the doctor gave me a couple of tubes of free samples of a cream to rub on them to make them go away. Sweet!! Staff is friendly at this location. Office is clean and well kept up. Only downside is this is a PPO only office. Since I have an HMO, I had to pay out of pocket. Doctor gave me a discount though. Typical first visit is $130, I only paid $90. If I could give this office more than 5 stars, I would. First time I've been happy with a doctor in a long time!!! read more

Dr. Lander performed a rather complicated Mohs procedure on my head on 2/14/2022, and really did an amazing job. I am so pleased. The staff and facility at Orange Coast Dermatology in RSM, CA were excellent and made me feel very comfortable during the lengthy procedure. Not only is Dr. Lander an excellent surgeon, but he is a very nice man. I rate him a 10 out of 10 in terms of his competency and professionalism. read more

I'm very happy with our visit to Dr. Lander. My daughter has acne and our primary doctor was never able to treat her properly (not his fault, he is not a dermatologist but due to insurance requirements he had to treat my daughter for 6 months before he could recommend her to a derm). I found Dr. Lander on Yelp and thought we'd give him a try. By the time I'd made the appointment, my husband was starting a new job and we were without insurance for three months. We paid out of pocket for this appointment and because I paid cash and didn't have insurance, Dr. Lander only charged me $90 for the appointment. He wrote two prescriptions for my daughter AND wrote the prescription for a full year so that we didn't have to keep coming back to get him to write another! I thought that was awesome! My daughter ended up being allergic to one of the prescriptions and it made her break out into a full body rash. After I took her to urgent care, I called Dr. Lander's office, explained what happened and asked if they could recommend another acne treatment. Within an hour they called my pharmacy, had a new prescription filled AND made sure to find something that was relatively inexpensive to fill because of my insurance issues. The meds are slowly but surly working (Dr. Lander said it could take 4-6 months to see true results) and we are very happy with the experience at Dr. Lander's office. read more

Dr. Lander is absolutely, hands down one of the best Dermatologists that you can go to. He is one of the few locally that perform the Moh's procedure if you have a skin cancer. He has removed several malignancies on me and performed the Moh's procedure on one if them. People remark that they would never know that I had surgery on my face. Absolutely no scar or trace of the procedure! Great doctor and great guy! read more

I went for a consult. I wanted to know my options before anything would be done. Dr. Landers was patient with my questions and gave his honest opinion after examining me. His team will get estimates of cost based on my specific insurance to layout all my options. Whether or not I choose to have the procedure, I highly recommend him. read more

Dr Lander is a personable man and wonderful surgeon specializing in Mohs surgery. He operated on my lip in the Advanced Dermatology office in Dana Point for squamous cell carcinoma and the procedure was relatively painless and efficiently done. He explained the process and answered all questions I had - and all of us in the waiting room - waiting on our various results- were duly impressed by both his abilities and his willingness to answer all our questions. I recommend him highly... read more

Last Friday I called and asked if I can walk in due to my sudden suspicion of a mole on my face. I didn't have insurance thus I hesitated for biopsy despite my tremendous fear of being ill. However, the doctor ( Erik) was so kind that I had my mole removed and biopsy with a price that I consider very very generous. He also explained and prescribed me regarding all my concern over various skin symptoms. Today I came in due to my suspicion on my mole recovery progress. Again, the doctor ( Linda) was so kind that I almost cried. She was so generous with her time and knowledge . She examined my wound and gave me mental and material assistance. I appreciate this clinic very much. Besides the two very informative and patient doctors I encountered, the nurses and front desk ladies are very nice too. I think angels live in this hospital. Thank you everyone ! read more

Friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. I've seen Dr. Lander a few times over a span of about 5 years. I appreciate that he explains his diagnostic reasoning and tells you the pathogenesis/pathology of given condition. He also openly explains the potential adverse consequences of a given treatment (eg, risk of scarring or other downsides). Unfortunately, not all dermatologists will spend the time to do this or will sometimes deliberately hide the risks since they can make additional money from these procedures. But Dr. Lander never tries to push a treatment just to make a profit, which is a rarity in an age where everyone is trying to nickel and dime you for the tiniest thing. My only criticism: he's only 1 person, so it can sometimes be very hard to get an appointment with him. Also, keep in mind that wait times can be long (sometimes), especially if you are squeezed in-between patients for a short notice appointment. read more

BEST Dermatologist, EVER!!!!!!!!!! I started seeing him many years ago and now my entire family goes. He is kind, funny and honest. Does not get any better than Dr. Lander! read more

Dr. Lander is awesome. He is a very skilled dermatologist, with a wonderful "bedside" personality. He has treated both me and my wife over the past ten years. I never get the sense that he is rushed. He always explains treatment options, and leaves up to the patient to decides which course to take. I like the fact that he also specializes in the Moh's procedure and has a thorough academic background (PhD) in addition to being an MD. read more

Dr. Landers did my Mohs surgery today and I can tell you he knows his business. He is both enthusiastic and well learned in the Mohs proceedure. He will answer all your questions, concerns and interests about dermatology in clear, easy to understand verbage. In addition he speaks like a regular guy too. He'll ask you for recommendations about places to visit, eat etc all the while he is working on you. I liked that personal touch in a medical professional. I am permanently changing over to Dr. Landers. P.S. :He has great assistants helping him too read more

Was calling as a first-time patient referred by a friend to make an appointment and receptionist was unbelievably rude. Will not be engaging any further with this practice. Can't imagine the patient experience if that first exploratory call was any indication. read more

Dr. Lander is awesome and does fantastic work. Super nice guy, great bedside manner, and has helped me with more than a dozen skin cancer problems. Thank you Dr. Lander! If in doubt, please visit this doctor!! read more

I visited J Lander year ago, He answered my questions and gave me his opinion after examing me, I am very satisfied with the treatment he prescribed for my skin condition. I had very good experience with him. read more

Dr. Lander is awesome! I went in for a spot on my face just to check it out and it ended up being a little suspicious. After a quick and painless biopsy and finding I would need to have surgery to remove more of the area, Dr. Lander personally called me to tell me the results and stayed in the office after hours to go over treatment options with my husband and I. I fully trust him to perform my upcoming procedure and will continue to see him in the future. read more

Dr. Lander is wonderful. He worked with me to find a solution to my hormonal acne and was very understanding. The wait time at his office was minimal--maybe 10 minutes and that was mostly due to having to fill out paperwork. His nurses/physicians assistants are all very friendly and welcoming as well. I highly recommend Dr. Lander for his knowledge, expertise and friendly "bedside manner. " read more

I was really nervous about a facial Mohs procedure for BCC. The biopsy anesthetic (NOT done by Dr. Landers) felt like a truck crashing into my face, so I was fairly apprehensive. The whole experience was fairly gentle and nowhere near the torment I had anticipated. Super nice guy with a really calming presence. Very appreciative! :-) read more

Dr. Lander is excellent. He has done 3 Mohs surgeries on my face near one eye. He is meticulous and takes a great deal of pride in his work. Now my entire family sees him. Previously,I had a terrible experience with Dr. Stanowicz in Orange. read more

I've been going to Landers for a while now and have a background of melanoma so finding the right dermatologist is very important. Dr. Landers is professional, precise, thorough but at the same time not overly aggressive. He is someone who is easy to relate to and seems to really take in the patients feelings on how to proceed with operations. Highly recommend. read more

I had swollen face and eyes for 3 days so I had to see dermatologist as soon as possible. They did their best to accommodate me in the early morning at 8. I forgot her name but the staff was really kind and Dr. Globerman, Dr. Lander as well. Thank you very much. I feel wonderful now! read more

Dr. Lander is that exceedingly rare combination of careful intellectual humility (that must underlie best medical competence) with kind humanity, gentle honesty, and a warm and seemingly completely genuine concern for the welfare of his patients. He listens to and respects your needs and views while actually seeming interested. It quickly becomes obvious that you are not just a job or paycheck to him! While you may or may not be seen promptly at your appointment time, the occasional longer wait is almost certainly a consequence of Dr. Lander's thorough, unhurried, and courteous manner; Thus, should a patient need extra time, (s)he gets it rather than being "finished up" to pull in the next waiting patient "to beat the clock." While waiting isn't fun, consider that YOU could be that patient getting the extra time with Dr. Lander! Staff I have dealt with at Dr. Lander's Sand Canyon office (where I do prefer to see him) are pleasant, careful, and efficient (but never brusque). If you value trustworthy, sincere competence and caring treatment, you're unlikely to find better than Dr. Lander. read more

Horrible, they have no empathy...I have really bad eczema and I mentioned to the receptionist (I'm assuming) the amount of pain I was in and if she could help at all with an appointment or anything...well she simply said sorry look for another doctor "in your network" we can't help you until January...this witch def needs to find a job at the DMV she would fit in perfectly! read more

After several disappointing encounters with dermatologists throughout the OC, I finally found a dermatology practice that I love! This practice offers a balance between Medical Dermatology and Cosmetic Dermatology- a rare find these days. They offer all the latest cosmetic procedures, but do not push it on you. I saw Dr. Globerman for a skin check and biopsy and then Dr. Lander performed Mohs surgery on my face for a basal cell carcinoma. Both Drs. and the staff were professional, kind, and thorough. read more

I could not be happier with Dr. Lander and his staff. I consulted him about two months ago in regards to what appeared to be a simple freckle on the top of my head. Dr. Lander immediately identified it as 'suspicious', and proceeded with a biopsy. The 'freckle' turned out to be a potentially life-threatening malignant melanoma. The surgery removed a fairly large piece from the top of my head. While no one wishes for this, it was indeed life saving, and Dr. Lander was pleasant and straightforward every step of the way. The procedures--both biopsy and surgery--were absolutely painless...and the healing is coming along perfectly. I highly recommend Dr. Lander for any skin-related needs. read more

Well let me start by saying I have great insurance ppo and I have been to the dermatologist numerous times in the past every year, we just moved so I looked for a new one. The Dr. Was fine, whatever even though he did my husband and my visit at the same time, it was weird but again, whatever. While I needed nothing done (thank God) my husband had to have a few spots removed as usual no big deal, well we left the office and then it started, never in my life have I received so many billing statements from his office as well as four, yes four different labs! Here it is eight months later, and we are still receiving new bills, every other week it seems, when we got our year end statement from the insurance company over 12 billing statements from his officeb for one visit, more than all our other dr visits combined. In the future I will be driving the extra mileage back to our old dermatologist who was much more personable and didn't nickel and dime. read more

Try to call to schedule a appointment, staff who answered the call was very rude and impatient, very bad experience

I couldnt thank Dr. Lander enough! I went in to see him for my extremely painful cystic acne and at the end of my accutane treatment I've been blessed! My skin has never been better! I've been off accutane (zennatane) for 7 months now and was on it for about 7 months. At first he gave me all of my options, informed me all about each procedure (pros & con's) and reccomended which procedure would be best, still keeping my favor in mind of what I wanted. Instead of making me try everything else first he gave me the info and I decided what would be best for me. I'm glad he was very helpful and a nice man. I moved 3 hours away but still willing to drive that far to see him for future procedures . read more

I just had my first visit with Dr. Lander today for some acne spots. I had a very pleasant experience. Dr. Lander took the time to talk to me about my concerns and gave very honest input on the causes and options for treatment. He was clear on what the outcome would be with various medications and treatments, as well as, common side effects. What I appreciated most was that he was not pushy with medication or treatments, in fact, he was honest about whether he thought they would achieve my long term goals or not. I would definitely continue going to Dr. Lander. read more

yeah all my acne went away about 3 days after taking the antibiotics!~ loving it!!

Jeff Lander is a great doctor, I highly recommend him! He's friendly, personable, knowledgeable, and takes the time to listen to your concerns and answer any questions you may have, with the ability to explain things so that anyone can understand them. I wish more doctors were like him. read more
