    Waiting area
    Daniella M.

    I have been coming to Dr. Romanov for years now, he has helped me get rid of acne scars I once worried about. The waiting area is very clean and pretty and the receptionist is friendly. I would recommend this facility to others.

    This is the waiting room inside a Vanguard dermatology on Ocean Avenue.

    If you're in search of a good dermatologist, go right on over to Vanguard Dermatology at 2148 Ocean Ave. in Brooklyn. It doesn't matter which one of the doctors you see although I'm partial to Dr. Romanoff, ( only because he is the only one I've seen personally) you can expect efficient and detailed service. I had my second visit there today and Dr. Romanoff had no problems 1st and checking these site where he'd operated on my first visit then addressing a NEW issue that I wanted him to take care of. He didn't say "you needed to bring back a referral or you I need to fill out more paperwork...he just took care of it! I had a tag right under my right eye that I have hated for over 20 years but as I write this review, it's not bothering me anymore as Dr. Romanoff made quick work of removing it. I also like the fact that he uses the smaller needles that are less painful for injections. And as I was leaving, he made sure I had everything to take care of my skin at home. I don't have a long history with dermatologist. I really didn't need one before but as I've gotten older, more issues with my skin have come up and I'm just so glad that I found Vanguard Dermatology. The place is clean neat & large with great leather sofas for seating. The entire business is state-of-the-art and that's including the bathrooms.(see my attached pictures.) I hope this helps you in making your decision of a great place with great doctors who will gladly handle all of your skincare needs.

    The Staff in Brooklyn are very rude!

    The Staff in Brooklyn are very rude! My appointment was 10am and right now is almost 1150am y nothing. When i ask them, they said like a robot: "we don't know" specially a lady in the left, she yelled and she is not educated.

    They don't care about your concerns and the treatment is subpar. Don't make the same mistake we did.

    Batra did not know why this happens: However, she informed me that many of her patients have done the same thing and then developped skin cancer.

    Dr. Racanelli has changed my life. I spent ten years being horribly embarrassed by my nose, to the…read morepoint where I was afraid to meet people because they'd think I was ugly. I went to Dr. Racanelli and he was very honest with me. He explained about how the surgery works and took time to properly examine me. When I had the actual surgery, he gave me a goody bag with a facial wash and toner, which were amazing. He was always very gentle but honest. He also doesn't try to talk you into getting surgeries just so he can make a buck off of you. I asked him about getting another procedure and he told me that I'd be better off waiting. He also will not prescribe certain painkillers due to their addictive nature. The ones that he gave me, however, did the trick just fine and despite having my face opened, I did not feel pain from the surgery once. Now, I look and feel fantastic and no one can even tell that I had my nose done. When I tell people, they are at first astonished and then ask for his name so they can check him out themselves. He also fixed my deviated septum and overactive turbinates, so I can finally breathe out of both of my nostrils for the first time in my life. He is both professional and kind. If I ever decide on another procedure, I will only see Dr. Racanelli.

It fell on my thumb and shattered. I pulled out a piece which I saw embedded on my thumb (I'm sorry for the gory details) and thought that I'm on the rode to a smooth recovery. Three weeks later, my wound is healed, but I got a stabbing pain on my thumb everytime I try to bend it. Ugh realization hit, I still got glass inside my thumb. After telling my primary doctor what happened, she referred me to Dr. Cho. Now comes Dr. Cho. He takes the time to hear your concerns, explains the procedure, very patient with me as I freaked out (internally) and has such a calming energy. Dr. Cho has great bedside manners and his energy makes you feel at ease. Dr. Cho remained available and was so prompt with answering my questions regarding post surgery and stitch removal. His professionalism stands out! I felt so supported throughout the whole process. I definitely don't want to say I will be back because that means I got hurt again. However, if I need to get stitches, botox (when I hit the lottery) or reconstructive surgery, Dr. Cho will be my first call!

Very professional. I'm very happy and satisfied with the outcome of the procedure.

The only aftercare advice I received was to use Vaseline or Aquaphor, with no detailed explanation of why, how often, how long to use it, or what signs to watch for during healing -- I later found that Vaseline is NOT ideal due to clogging pores (Another detail she did not disclose). I left feeling uncertain about how to properly care for my skin. She also advised me to begin using retinol the following week. When I later sought a second opinion from another dermatologist, I was told to delay retinol longer because the area was still too sensitive. That discrepancy was concerning, especially given the vulnerability of burned skin. In addition, when I asked about a persistent white bump I've had for over a year, she identified it but did not discuss next steps unless I specifically prompted her. I felt I had to repeatedly ask for clarification throughout the visit. Overall, the appointment felt rushed and impersonal. I did not feel heard or guided through my concerns, and I left with more uncertainty than confidence. For a first dermatology visit, I was hoping for more thorough education and individualized care. I ultimately found the second opinion far more detailed and reassuring. Based on my experience, I would encourage others to seek a provider who takes more time to explain treatment plans and next steps.
