[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do not go to Moses Albert!  I was his patient for several months and I got so sick of waiting at least an hour (usually about 1.5 hours or more), even when I had one of the first appointments of the day.  And the 1.5 hour wait was just in the front waiting room!  Then they'd move me to an exam room and I'd wait at least another 30 minutes.  Sometimes, they actually shuffled me from exam room to exam room!  His office staff are very rude.  I'm sure he's a very good doctor but he is condescending, bordering on rude, and I always felt like he was rushing through my appointment to get to the next patient.

I see Dr. Robert Silverman in Fairfax.  I originally started seeing him as a teenager and I went back to him because my experience with Dr. Albert was so negative.  Dr. Silverman is awesome.  He is friendly, knowledgeable, and his office staff are competent.  I don't have to wait long to see him, maybe 15 minutes max.

Cripes!!  I'm sitting in Dr. Albert's office right now. It's my first time here and my first derm appt ever. I'm going to see Dr. Toerge though. My OB referred me. I have MAJOR health anxiety and my OB's office said that she's very good and very compassionate. I have so many embarrassing skin issues plus I'm worried about a mole. I literally feel like I'm going to throw up right now. My mom died (breast cancer) this summer and after going to the doctor with her many times I'm so freaking nervous about it. I'll check back in after the appt. to give my review. [/quote]
