In patients' words

"If you are looking to wait a half hour in a waiting room to be taken back to an examination room to wait another half hour to see Dr. Berk - than this is your guy. ... He double and triple books for his selfish convenience."

Healthgrades (Dr. Mark Berk)

"DO NOT GO HERE FOR LASER HAIR REMOVAL! I was burned very badly on my face. ... The doctor and assistant who botched the procedure were very cold and unsympathetic."

RateMDs (Dr. Tina C. Venetos)

"Dr. Downes is the A team and does an excellent and thorough job while still managing to be a charming conversationalist. ... Everyone in the office is professional and kind, the wait time is minimal and the office is spotless."

Lake Forest Dermatology website

"I have been a patient of Dr. Marshall for many years, and she is an outstanding professional and person. ... She caught two basal cell cancers on my face that another dermatologist had missed."

Vitals (Dr. Julia Marshall)
