I have been going to Olansky Dermatology Associates about 17 years now. I first met Angela shortly after that. When Dr. Olansky prescribed a medical procedure, PDT. I needed some precancerous spots removed, Angela was the technician operating the equipment for the procedure. It was a medical not cosmetic procedure. I was not aware they offered cosmetic procedures at that time. During my visits over the years I would run into Angela in the halls. She was not doing my treatments but I knew she still worked there. About a year ago I asked Dr. Olansky about the sun damaged areas on my face. The new CFL and LED lighting is really very harsh and unforgiving if you have problem skin. I asked him if he could do anything about it. He mentioned a laser procedure, (Fraxel Dual), and filled me in on some of the benefits I might see. If I was really interested he suggested I schedule a consult with Angela, she could give me much more specific information. I decided to research things first. That in and of itself took some time. There is a BUNCH of info. out there. Overall, I would say the two most important factors that influenced my decision were: #1 Experience and training. I had read many horror stories of the devastating outcomes resulting from placing this powerful technology in the hands of an inexperienced unqualified person. During my research on several laser procedures out there I was pleasantly surprised when Angela’s name came up more than once. Her credentials are nothing shy of impressive, and her reputation in this field is stellar. She is well known and highly respected within the industry and community for her skills, knowledge, and expertise. It is no overstatement to say she does in fact set a standard that most strive to reach but few actually achieve during their career. #2 for me was cost. Let me be frank. Most of us don’t have money falling out of our pockets. For me, cost is a factor. I have yet to find an established dermatological practice comparable to Olansky Dermatology Associates that offers a full list of procedures with pricing in their waiting room for anyone to just pick up. You know before you make a decision to schedule a consult, what procedures cost. Long long story short, I did it and told very few people. What has been interesting to me is when I am asked questions about how I look. The common thread in every question I am asked pertains to looking rested or am I just back from vacation. That is good enough for me. It sure would be great if I could say it was all me but the real truth is 99% of the credit for my results go directly to Angela. She really knows her stuff. For her this is not a job it is a career she absolutely loves and has a great time doing. When someone feels that way about any one task, they are going to be good at it. Toss in impressive knowledge coupled with a truly remarkable level of skill, you get Angela McEver. As far as I am concerned she made it worth twice what I paid. If I ever consider having this or anything similar Angela is the one professional I would go to. If your reading this and you are on the fence about things, just set up a consult and I am pretty sure you would agree with me. Friends say I look better, best of all… I feel just great.

It has taken me some time to write this review. I had a facial filler procedure completed by Dr. Harpring. I was informed that the results would last 12-18 months. Not only did the results last less than two months, I noticed have a very visible pocket on one side of my face that was not there prior to the procedure. I went back to see Dr. Harpring after sending in a picture of the pocket. At the follow up visit, I received the following response to my request for relief: "This is what keeps me up at night." and "There is nothing I can do about it, these things happen." She also told me I could come back to try again in a few months at additional cost for a new procedure. I told her I would never have her work on me again. This was not only a waste of money but I am in worse shape than before the procedure. Buyer beware! This experience was so horrible and I would rate it less than zero.

I WILL NEVER GO THERE AGAIN. THE FRONT DESK PERSONNEL WAS RUDE-NOT FRIENDLY THIS PERSON WAS 20 SECONDS FROM STEP OUTSIDE. HOW DARE YOU TREAT A PAYING CLIENT THAT WAY. SHE SET THE TONE FOR THE ESTHETICIAN WHO GREETED MY SON & I LIKE WE WERE RUINING HER DAY. WE PAID THE 150 FOR SERVICE MICRODERM..I WAS LATE BECAUSE OF TRAFFIC & ACCIDENT..SHE WAS LIKE WHO CARES YOU ARE CANCELLED THEY TREATED ME LIKE I NEEDED A HAND OUT. HATED THAT EXPERIENCE. WE WERE THE ONLY DARK SKINNED PEOPLE THERE SO MAYBE THAT WAS THE ISSUE.. I WAS TALKED TO BY ANOTHER CLIENT READY TO LEAVE BECAUSE THE FRONT DESK GIRL WAS STONE FACED.RUDE & FULL OF ATTITUDE!!!

I took my daughter to see Dr. Gantz for a rash on her leg. She immediately diagnosed and treated the issue. She was fantastic with her. I am a physician, as well, and loved the practice. The customer service was impeccable! Dr. Gantz is a great doctor and will take great care of you! I believe your experience will be that same as mine. Also, I work with Dr. Dave on a professional level. He is an excellent and experienced Mohs surgeon who understands his patients goals and expectations. He provides superior customer service and will surely meet your needs to take care of all your skin cancer needs!

Infinity stars for Sharon Doering, she is wonderful, friendly, and skilled yet quick at providing solutions to skin problems, she has helped me a ton to resolve my skin issues. Strongly recommend. I do wish that you guys provided dissolvable stitches so patients dont have to come back. 0 star for whoever sent my medical information to the third party lab, the individual didnt get the name of my insurance or the identification number correct, so clearly the third party could not find me and sent me the whole amount of the bill. I then have to go through the hassle of fixing the mistakes.

I have been going to Olansky Dematology for many years now, whether for a specific problem, or just for a really great deep facial, and I wouldnt consider going anywhere else. Every single staff member is knowledgeable and professional. The customer service I receive every visit leaves a positive and lasting impression. I always feel comfortable and at ease while I am there. Great staff!

Dr. Dave has been my Dermatologist for more than 10 years, and the reason I keep coming back is his excellent and very professional service, the very friendly staff, his always upbeat and friendly manner, and, as many patients as come through his door, he always remembers you like a friend. I wish everyone I came into contact with in this life was such a positive experience!!

DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE. I did a simple one-time visit. They charged me $152.81 + 295.40 for a simple skin lesion biopsy (this excludes my insurance payment $137). The doctor sounds like idiot and does not have the basic common sense knowledge. The physician name is Lisa Weiss.
