Maybe it means he will only be practicing in Maryland? I think he practices there.

That suits exactly how I felt when I saw him. Never went back.

Dr. Moses took care of what I need in one, single, visit unlike other doctors. Some doctors require patients come back/see several times to 'milk' insurance provider...

Not only was he a good doctor, but he spent his free time and money on two orphanages overseas.


If a doctor is a jerk, and I have to point it out to get him to change...chances are he’s actually a jerk.

He took on a really complex case in my mom, who is extremely fearful of doctors. He is super good at what he does.

Agree, and the wait times were ridiculous. I found a new practice after the PA left.

Still hoping to hear something online so we can continue to go to him.

Hmm, I do know the practice as bought a few years ago and the PA there I was seeing left.

I got a letter -- but similarly, no explanation. When I called to find out what the story was, Forefront rescheduled me with the new doc but did not tell me why Dr. Albert left and I haven't seen anything on line about it. I too would like to keep him as my dermatologist if he still plans to practice.

Does anyone else go to dermatologist Moses Albert in Fairfax? I got an email that said he is no longer with the practice. Did he retire? Did he start up something else? I rather follow him if possible.
