The waiting room always seems to be packed, so bring a book or magazines with you (unless you love reading AARP Magazine). I've noticed that when the wait is especially long, that Dr. Laufer has been a bit rushed in speaking with me, but his exams are still thorough. He has always kept an eye on anything unusual with my skin (apparently people in their 20s are not immune to melanoma) and he urges his patients to stop using indoor tanning booths. He's an interesting doctor - he's a vegan and I've followed some of what he does nutrition-wise (on my own accord, not because he told me to) and have noticed a significant improvement in my skin. He also converted his car, which originally ran on diesel, to run on filtered vegetable oil. So cool. He's awesome.

After taking some time to reflect on my experience here I decided to write this review…read more I had a very disappointing experience with this dermatology practice while seeking treatment for a skin condition, and I ultimately had to seek care elsewhere to have my concerns properly addressed. During my initial visit, a punch biopsy was performed on my leg. The assistant struggled to place the stitch after multiple attempts, was unable to locate another needle, and ultimately abandoned the attempt and cauterized the biopsy site instead. I believe this may have contributed to a worse scar than I otherwise would have had. Afterward, I received no phone call regarding my biopsy results, even after more than a month. When I arrived for my next scheduled appointment, which I had booked directly after my previous visit and written down, the front desk staff could not find it in their system. When I tried to explain that I had made the appointment, I was met with irritation and attitude rather than assistance. I was eventually told to sit down and wait for the doctor. Although I was eventually seen and given my results and a prescription, when I raised concerns about the condition appearing in my mouth as well, the doctor refused to examine it and simply told me to see a dentist before quickly ending the appointment. As I left, the receptionist rudely reminded me not to lose my appointment card for my next visit. At my third appointment, after the medication I had been prescribed failed to help, I hoped we could reassess my treatment. Instead, much of the appointment seemed focused on teaching a resident, who had also been brought into my visit without my prior knowledge or consent, about my condition. My concerns took a back seat while the doctor discussed my skin with the resident and pointed out the affected areas, seemingly ignoring me as though I were not even in the room. I felt more like a teaching example than a patient whose symptoms and concerns were being taken seriously. What concerned me most was the subsequent treatment plan. I was prescribed a high-dose course of oral steroids over an extended period, and within a week I became so ill that I had to go to the emergency room. The ER physician instructed me to stop taking the steroids immediately and characterized the treatment as experimental and unsafe. Having a treatment plan leave me feeling so ill that I needed emergency care was an extremely distressing experience. I have since switched to another dermatologist, and the difference in care has been striking. My new dermatologist listened to my concerns, addressed the areas affected by the condition, and proactively examined my mouth when I explained that the symptoms had spread there. She also told me she would have prescribed a medicated oral rinse right away. This was particularly frustrating because I had raised the same concern at this practice and felt dismissed rather than properly evaluated which allowed the condition to worsen in that affected area. Overall, I left this practice feeling unheard, poorly treated, and frustrated by the lack of communication and attention to my concerns. The problems ranged from the handling of my biopsy and appointment scheduling to the dismissal of my concerns and a treatment plan that resulted in an emergency room visit. My experience with my new dermatologist has shown me how different the experience can be. Unfortunately, I did not feel that level of care or consideration here. Based on my experience, I would not return to this practice.

I called a whole bunch of dermatologists in the area and crossed my fingers. Hudson Dermatology had a last minute cancellation and called me in. I am still counting my blessings that I ended up there on the day Dr. Caroline Raftopol was in the office. Because of covid19- they are currently only open one day a week with only one Dr on site and they are obviously slammed. The only open appointment they had to surgically remove it was almost a month away. I asked if she please could do something to reduce the pressure / pain (cortisone, lancing, etc) and she asked me to wait while she tended to another patient who'd been waiting. I (happily) waited about 25 minutes and she back came in and told me that she would just do the surgery very quickly. I strongly suspect she used her own lunch hour to do it. I only paid an insurance co-pay of $25 dollars and they prescribed no extra medication/antibiotics at all (which I can say a week later, I absolutely did not need). She did a fantastic job and I am so incredibly GRATEFUL to her and the staff for deciding to properly remove it instead of doing a quick, temporary fix. I will absolutely go to Dr. Raftopol and Hudson Dermatology for any dermatological needs in the future. HIGHLY recommend.

Unfortunately, I didn't read any reviews before my appointment. I had a dilated pore on my…read moredécolletage--a small pore that I kept squeezing, which really bothered me, so I wanted to get rid of it. I was referred to Dr. Nicole Guerin. I assumed it would be a quick procedure to excise the pore. Instead, I was scheduled for an initial consultation that lasted no more than a minute, for which I was charged $75. During a second visit, she excised the pore using a special instrument and closed the site with absorbable sutures--which, in fact, did not dissolve, requiring me to return a third time to have them removed. The doctor did warn me that there would be a scar, but she failed to mention that it could turn into a massive keloid scar--especially since the skin in that area is constantly in motion! As a physician, she should have informed me of all the potential risks and consequences. Dr. Nicole Guerin is very formal, cold, and shows no real interest in her patients. Currently, another doctor--Saluja Sandeep from Cornwall Hudson Dermatology--is working to correct her mistakes. Unlike Dr. Guerin, he is highly professional, attentive, and friendly. I never expected to spend so much money only to end up with a problem far worse than the one I started with.
