I've been coming here over the past 10 years and every experience I've had has been wonderful. I…read morejust called for an appointment and was so surprised to get in so quickly. Dr. Karlsberg and his staff are always so kind and friendly. I can't believe these negative reviews! I feel bad that I never gave his office a positive review when I could have so many times. I'm coming in to get some broken capillaries removed from my nose and chin. I'll post before and after photos so check for my updated review. I'm going in next week. Here's my before photo. I promise to be very honest in my review. I truly hope this whole "negative reviews" thing is in no way a reflection on his office because some people can get very emotional when they don't get the answers they want. I truly wish they (those reviewers) found a doctor that told them what was going on with them. I'll be back next week with updates. But I know this doctor is amazing. He loves caring for his patients. I have broken capillaries or spider veins on my face. Thanks to genetics in my family and loving the sun. At age 56, I want less of these, since I don't like wearing foundation on my skin. Will post after photos soon! Five stars for all my past experiences here and the fact that I trust this doctor very much. And his staff are amazing! Rhonda

I went in for my appointment at 8:20am this morning and Doctor Jordan comes in shaking and yelling at me to get out like a madman!

Thank You Thursday Review - Dr. Robert Jordan, Dermatologist, Ventura, CA…read more At 93, I've met many physicians, but few match the exceptional care of Dr. Robert Jordan. His deep medical expertise, calm confidence, and warm bedside manner make every visit reassuring and effective.

I recommend him wholeheartedly to friends and loved ones--when your skin needs real care, Dr. Jordan is the one to see. -- Buz Wilburn

It took me a long time to get into see Jacob Lau M.D. as a new patient but the wait was certainly…read moreworth it. He is a superb dermatologist. He is calm, extremely intelligent, personable and friendly, explains conditions and issues throughly and is confident in his assessments because of his experience, training and his own self confidence. Which in turn gave me confidence in his assessment. Having a doctor you don't trust, who seems uninterested in your issues and doesn't explain things throughly leaves you questioning their assessment and moving on to someone else. We have all been there but that is certainly not the case with Jacob Lau M.D. I appreciate that he exclusively focuses on the health of skin rather that cosmetic procedures. I only waited minutes to see him and the appointment was never rushed. I left feeling so pleased to have him as my dermatologist

I was referred to Dr. Lau by my primary care physician. I mad an appointment with his practice to…read moresee him SPECIFICALLY over 3 months ago. I received a call to confirm the appointment the day before. I arrived for my appointment to be told not only is he NOT THERE, he is not taking new patients!!!. His office LIED and scheduled me with someone else in the practice that I was not referred to and was not a specialist in my condition. Unprofessional, dishonest and incompetent. AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!

They always remember details about my life, compliment me on my outfits, etc. Dr. Mines also is very happy to give out samples and great referrals, and she considers your situation before diagnosing a treatment. The problem is the office staff. I showed up for an appointment, which I had driven two hours for, as I was at school in LA. The office staff told me that I did not have an appointment, and basically told me to kick rocks even though my appointment would have literally taken five minutes and is just a check in and pregnancy test. Luckily, I had the appointment card, which I showed to the office. They just said "Oh, okay. Take a seat." No apologies, or owning up to their mistakes at all. If you have to confirm anything, it's basically a game of phone tag, as it seems nobody in the office communicates to each other or even answers the phone past 3 pm on a work day. It's such a shame because Dr. Mines is very sweet and one of the best dermatologists in Camarillo, but she is being pulled down by her horrifically incompetent staff.

Don't bother going to Dr. Mines if you need a dermatologist. Office staff is unhelpful, rude and if…read moreyou have an emergency they don't care about trying to get you in. You're better off finding a dermatologist who actually cares about your wellbeing.

If I wasn't sure how bad the office was, it was confirmed on my third and last visit. I never actually got to see the doctor. I was told the procedure I was scheduled for, which they confirmed several times, and I confirmed 2x by phone was not available. I was told this in the treatment room, not by the doctor but by the receptionist. I asked to speak to the doctor for clarity and was told she was not available unless I paid for the appointment. It was really strange - and basically, that is how previous appointments felt. Unprofessional, even a bit sketchy.

This is my first one star review in 15 years of review writing. I echo the other Yelp reviewer from…read moreJanuary 2026. I scheduled my husband for a scalp consultation/diagnosis. She's busy, his appointment was 2 months out. It was a driveby at best. Dr. Larsen spent less then 10 minutes with my husband. Breifly looked at his scalp and said "I can't really do anything because you've been itching". Um, yes, that's why we are consulting you Doctor. On her way out she recommended peppermint shampoo and prescribed a topical to use for 2 weeks. No diagnosis, no instructions on what to look for while using the treatments. Nothing. The best part is her office coded and billed his visit as an extensive, up to 45 minute consultation with full review of medical history and charged us $433. Dr. Larsen's distracted, disinterested - did no review of history, or symptoms and gives you the impression you are a file not a person. We won't be back.

On January 14th, 2026 I had an appointment with Dr. Larsen for my skin check, (after many months of…read morewaiting). in UCLA in ventura. As she entered the room, she started to talk about her 10 year old daughter's sleep over birthday party, and she had to go to Costco to get snacks for them and went on and on the whole time, and did not focus on what she was doing. The checkup was very superficial and she missed many parts of my body to be checked. The whole visit was no longer that 7 minutes, with no communication about my findings to me. So after this unprofessional visit I decided to call the office manager her name is MELISSA CALA UDIO, so i explained the whole situation to her. She told me she was going to have a meeting with her and let me know on the same day!! It has been over four days,and no update. Everytime I called the receptionist told me she is busy, either in meeting or with patient, she has been avoiding me with all these excuses for four days. Lastly I called today and got very frustrated because she was not available again. I am writing this review on how dismissive and unprofessional the office is.I just want they cancel the transaction with my insurance (she charged my insurance $836) for this lousy visit and also refund my copay , so I can go somewhere decent to have my annual skin test checkup done.

Very nice man. My dad is 95 and saw Dr Thacher for 1 yr. He kept telling my dad that there was…read morenothing that needed biopsy's. I took him to another dermatologist as I was concerned as dad has seen dermatologist every 3 mos for years and has always needed something biopsied .

WOW! I have to say, this was my first visit to a dermatologist. It all started when I called to…read moremake my appointment. The woman who answered the phone was extremely nice and answered all of my questions. After getting my insurance to verify I was covered she asked if I knew where their office was located. She very nicely proceeded to give me step-by-step directions before wishing me a great day. When I walked into their Ventura office this morning I wasn't sure what to expect. I have to admit, a bit of nerves came on as I was waiting to be seen. This visit was unlike any other doctor's appointment I've ever had. I was immediately welcomed, genuinely welcomed when I walked in the door. The receptionist very nicely walked me through the paperwork and made sure I didn't have any questions. Unlike the usual doctor's appointments, my wait was VERY short. The associate who took me to the back was equally as friendly as she went over my file, asked, and answered my questions. She was very calming and super friendly. Dr. Thacher came in very shortly after and did my check-up. He was very professional and extremely friendly, calming, and knowledgeable. This office is hands down the BEST office staff I have EVER encountered. It was so refreshing to be treated with genuine kindness, and professionalism. The fact that they actually respect your time by not making you wait 30 minutes to be seen in the waiting room and don't rush through your appointment was something my general physicians' office could learn from. Thank you, Dr. Thacher and your team!!!

Terrible Business Practices - They Have Officially Lost a Long-Term Patient…read more I absolutely love my provider and genuinely hate the thought of leaving them. I have trusted and valued their personal care for years. Unfortunately, I am no longer willing to give my hard-earned money to a business whose management treats loyal, long-term patients this way. I had a significant procedure scheduled and made a very reasonable request. I asked the office to keep a card on file to secure payment and allow me just a few days to pay with a new credit card that was arriving in the mail. There was no question about my ability or willingness to pay. I simply asked for a brief billing accommodation. Management refused to offer any flexibility whatsoever. Rather than work with an established patient, they gave me no reasonable option except to cancel my appointment. I had intentionally coordinated multiple appointments for the same day to make my care more convenient and efficient. Their rigid policy disrupted those plans and, more importantly, damaged a long-standing relationship with a provider I truly value. As a business owner myself, I find this incredibly short-sighted. Good businesses recognize the value of loyal customers and empower their staff to use reasonable judgment. Policies should protect a business--not drive away established customers over a minor accommodation that creates virtually no risk. This is especially disappointing because my decision has nothing to do with the quality of my provider. I would happily continue seeing them. However, doing so means continuing to financially support a business whose practices I strongly disagree with. I hate to leave a provider I love, but I work hard for my money, and I get to decide which businesses receive it. This one will no longer receive mine.
