Other than that faux pas--they are excellent. Aloha

Unfortunately, not the first (or second or third) time that this is happened.

I finally call and now there isn't an appt. for 5 months from now. The staff is the most unprofessional I've ever dealt with, on multiple occasions. It's really too bad because really liked my Dr., but am now going to have to change. Do better. Dr. Friedlander, you are losing patients because of your staff.

Wildly unprofessional, passing blame to others, talking over me, not asking good questions, not following up, speaking rudely at me, etc. After a real nightmare experience, to put it politely, Multiple sections within the women's health center that do not communicate between themselves. No returned phone calls as promised. Blaming other offices, no follow up, nobody puts in any effort to try and help people frustrated by their poor customer service. I just wanted to schedule a first appointment with a referral. After 3 months, endless hold time, no call backs, bad info given repeatedly, not listening, talking over me, etc, I gave up. Highly recommend avoiding this office if you don't want them to blame your doctor for their mistakes.

However, since I'm the type of person that tends to internalize my stress, my body decided to react in other ways, specifically in these rash-type lesions on my hands and wrists that looked absolutely raw (and were painful beyond relief). Initially, my mother-in-law, who's a nurse believed I might have developed psoriasis, so recommended Dr. Huntley since he had helped my husband and his sister with their dermatology issues. I wasn't sure what to expect or how to prep since I'd never previously seen a dermatologist and while I suffered from acne in my teens, it was nothing too severe that warranted a visit. However, Dr. Huntley was informative and kind, if a little stern, but otherwise helpful with my skin concerns. Apparently, what I had was not psoriasis but eczema and he had prescribed steroid cream to aid in hydration and healing. My eczema has been well controlled since and fortunately, perhaps due to age, I've gotten better at managing my stress and anxiety. Overall, if you're looking for a good dermatologist on the Windward side and aren't sure where to look, I'd highly recommend Dr. Huntley as he is quick, efficient, and not one to beat around the bush--long story short, my husband still has a grudge against Dr. Huntley since when he had visited as a teen, the doc had told him that the reason he had such bad acne was that he was fat LOL. Fortunately, my visit bore no such interaction and my eczema was well managed thereafter. I still get a good laugh every time I think about my husband in his teens interacting with Dr. Huntley.

I developed a lump on my nose ring. I first went to my PCP and all he wanted me to do was take…read moreout the nose ring and take some heavy duty penicillin. I left pretty pissed and defeated because I took such care and nursed it for so long but it seemed like for nothing now. So I called dr. Huntley's office for a second opinion plus I feel this is more his field then my PCP. The front desk at both offices are amazingly nice and welcoming. I was worried when I first saw dr Huntley because he is older so I thought he would just tell me to take the damn thing out like my PCP did. Anyways he knew exactly what it was and said he doesn't thing think I need to take the meds the doc gave me. He did remove the bump and put some ointment to prevent infection. He also took a culture just in case their was an infection which gave me the piece of mind I needed. Dr. Huntley felt confident that my nose will heal nicely and my nose ring can stay in :). I trust him not because he told me what I wanted to hear its because he really knows what he's doing. He's also a really sweet man and even removed some annoying skin tags. I just made another appointment to see what he can do for my acne scars. Give him a try, he really is a great dermatologist.

I get PicoSure laser treatments for hyperpigmentation with Paulina, and Botox with Dr. Foo for both aesthetic and medical needs (TMJ and migraines). Adam at the front desk is always so friendly, and I really appreciate how transparent they are with their pricing. I love their VIP plans. The membership fee essentially loads money into a wallet that accumulates until you're ready to come in, which makes budgeting for treatments really easy. Highly recommend Paulina and Dr. Foo for your anti-aging skin routine!

Did NOT return here. There ARE other options for meds and removal of skin cancers you know! Lesions were removed with MOH surgery. Don't recommend this physician, sorry.
