Update: I'm incredibly impressed by how the practice responded to my experience. The manager called…read moreme after I posted my review, apologized, listened, and explained that it had been a very busy day and the assistant had communicated their scheduling policy clumsily. She didn't make excuses and actually helped me get another appointment the next day. My second experience was super friendly and my concern was fully resolved. The doctor was very careful and thorough, and they clarified that their typical approach is to hear patients' concerns and arrange follow-ups if there isn't enough time to address everything at once. I'm honestly floored by their response, as in mistakes happen everywhere, but it takes a surprising amount of care and competence to handle it the way they did. The practice goes out of their way to make sure their patients feel looked after and I'm grateful to have found them! Old: I have mixed feelings about this practice. The doctor and staff seemed competent and the treatment plan was reasonable. However, the interpersonal experience was unpleasant enough that I won't return. I had originally booked the appointment for one concern, but by the time of the visit I had developed two additional pressing concerns which I thought might be related. When I mentioned this, the medical assistant rather brusquely told me that the doctor only addresses one issue per visit. When I explained that two of the concerns were related and offered to drop the third, the interaction still felt unnecessarily adversarial, as though I was imposing on the office. I understand we have limited appointment times and may need to restrict how much can be addressed in one visit. My issue was primarily with how that limitation was communicated and the lack of generosity. It's a little odd to see other comments mention generosity of time, because that definitely wasn't my experience. A friendly explanation that the doctor would address what he reasonably could would have been completely understandable. I left feeling more like a burden than a patient. Given that there are other dermatology practices in the area where I have felt more welcome, I would personally go elsewhere in the future.

I found him when I lived in Nashville (almost 10 years ago), then looked him up after I moved to DC. Scheduling an appointment at his new office was a smooth process and I was able to be seen on the same day. The office staff are outgoing, professional, and communicative. The scheduling and check-in process was easy and I had no issues with insurance/payment process. Dr.Livingood is warm and thorough in explaining procedures/follow-up and takes time to answer questions so you don't feel rushed. I recommend him to all my friends!

Any extra forms are completed in the office by use of ipads. Dr Walia and her staff are great to work with - all very professional, courteous and efficient. Highly recommend this practice for all of your dermatological needs.

Out of 15, there were only a couple and even though Dr Brittany Smirnov didn't have reviews, I saw her smiley profile picture & clean/small office setting, and decided to give her a chance! I am happy I did. The girls at the front are very nice and welcoming, and the wait was only 30 minutes (half of that was spent doing the new patient paperwork). The PA did a thorough job once I was in the room asking what my concerns/needs were for the Dr. Which I thought was nice that I didn't have to tell the receptionist upon booking, since these things are kind of sensitive to talk about to a random person. Dr Brittany came into the room with a big smile. I felt very at ease talking to her and did not feel insecure discussing my dermatology needs and getting half naked to show her LOL. I even told her I picked her because of her smiling face and we both agreed how YELP is so helpful in finding different services. I'd recommend anyone to go see her! And I feel comfort knowing my next appointment will be as good as this one was!

My son recently had his first keloid removed, and the dermatologist took the time to explain every step of the procedure directly to him. As a parent, I truly appreciated that he treated my son with respect, answered our questions patiently, and made what could have been an intimidating experience feel calm and reassuring. The procedure itself was quick, efficient, and expertly performed. I was especially impressed that the tissue was sent to pathology as part of a thorough standard of care, and that we left with a clear plan for follow-up injections and long-term prevention. As someone who struggled with keloids myself when I was younger, this procedure meant more to me than I can express. Knowing my son is receiving such thoughtful, evidence-based care brings me tremendous peace of mind. Thank you to the entire team for your professionalism, compassion, and excellence. We are incredibly grateful and feel fortunate to have found such an outstanding practice. I would recommend this office without hesitation.

I've been coming here for over a decade and I highly recommend. My insurance doesn't have Dermatology (shock) so my copay is 50 dollars which I consider well worth it.
