Arrogant & Hypocrite! I was late to my first appointment due to road construction. I just wanted to the doctor to take a look at a very minor facial mole and determine whether thats a cancerous one or benign. The receptionists didnt allow me even after pleading that it doesnt take her long to just take one look. No, the receptionists wouldnt listen. They tell me that if they accommodate me, they would delay other patients. They rescheduled me for another appointment after 10 days. I was so fed up with their attitude that I didnt want to go to them again, but I was also scared of the canceled appointment charges. So I thought I have no other alternative, let me check whether shell live up to her professed punctuality. So for my next appointment, I was twenty minutes early, but I got to see the assistant after 20 minutes and the doctor after 35 minutes from my appointment time. So much for her punctuality. After putting me through so much trouble, she told me that my mole was a benign one in less than a minute and was in a rush to leave. She didnt have the time to ask if I have any other questions or concerns And here is the interesting part. I told her she could have accommodated me at my first visit. She gave her routine answer, I dont want to delay other patients. I asked her then why she delayed me now. She was very unapologetic, and said I dont know very casually. Great answer! And then she went on to say, I see that you are not happy, you can see another dermatologist. What a revelation! I dont know what impression I might have given her, but I see these two possibilities. A) I dont have the common sense to figure out that I can see another doctor if I am not happy with her. OR B)I love the abusive relationship with my doc and so I want to go to her again and again no matter how little respect she has for others time. Move over Ms.Nandedkar, you are not even an expert, based on some other review from the same website: "I just expect a Dermatologist to be able to propery identify items on my body and not tell me they are 99% sure about something, and be completly wrong."

After reading positive reviews here and on Yelp, I decided to go see Dr. Nandedkar for various skin ailment before my wedding. (All small things, cherry angiomas, sun spot). I had an appointment the next day with a gastroenterologist for a small hemorrhoid but decided to have her quickly look at it as well. (Im a 27 year old male, never drink never smoke). She looked at it, took a picture, and told me she was 99% sure it wasnt a hemorrhoid. This leaves one option....a tumor. Then we have the option of it being benign or metastatic (melanoma). She had me sent over to specialist the next day to be examined and for a biopsy. He asked me why I was here to see him...(27 healthy male). Said it was a small hemorrhoid and she didnt know what she was talking about. Luckily my whole family and fiancee had taken off work to go the specialist with me and we stayed up all night researching anal cancer. I am grateful that I dont have anal cancer. Im grateful I dont have a lot things. I just expect a Dermatologist to be able to propery identify items on my body and not tell me they are 99% sure about something. The specialist couldnt believe she had sent me there.

I just met with Dr. Nandedkar for the first time yesterday. I found her support staff to be friendly and professional. The office was modern and inviting. Dr. N was warm and professional. She took the time to answer my questions thoroughly and made appropriate treatment suggestions. I do not have a chronic condition requiring follow up but will definitely return should the need arise. I have already referred three friends to see her and definitely recommend her!

I have been a patient of Dr. Nandedkar for several years and remain very happy with her thoroughness and dedication to my well being. Since then, my wife and daughter have also visited her for various reasons and are also very happy with her attentiveness. It is a busy office, so there are times when you may wait a few minutes, but all in all, one of my favorite doctors to visit.

I think the Doc was good for my simple skin condition. Her recommendations worked fine. They do need to tighten up the admin though. They could not give a statement of services that day but said they would mail it the next day. Three weeks later I had to call to chase down that statement which never went out. Th the office is modern and they ran close to on time, both positives.

She is one of the most professional and kindest doctors I have ever been to. She goes above and beyond to make sure as a patient you understand everything and is always confident in what she tells you. I was highly recommended by my current doctor and thankful that she has become one of my doctors. They are professional and very prompt and most of all do not rush their patients.
