Ive been a patient of Dr. Basuk for almost 8 years. Ive been seeing her on and off for acne treatments and after my last visit to her office I will never return! I recently visited her because I changed up products and my skin started breaking out worse than Ive ever had in my life and I thought I was having an allergic reaction to the products I was using.. she didnt address my concerns and I had a lot of questions for her about it. As soon as she walked into the room she told me that my "skin looked horrible" and that the only way to get it clear was a very long dose of antibiotics. I didnt feel comfortable taking them without knowing what the cause of my breakouts were. She told me that was my only option and gave me that along with 2 different topical creams, pushed 2 products on me that she sold in her office that I didnt even need but because I was hysterical crying since she made me feel even worse than I already did about my skin (which she didnt even acknowledge) I felt pressured into buying them. I left there and tried the 2 topicals first and after the 3rd day my skin was burning, peeling, itchy and even more irritated then before I used them! I stopped using everything and just started using cetaphil for now till my skin calms down and I am seeing another doctor. I dont appreciate being talked down to like that and made to feel even worse about myself. As someone that has suffered from acne for years now, it consumes you and its the only thing you think people see when they look at you- I felt I was treated unfairly and I was rushed out of the room before I could ask her any of my other concerns. I waited to be seen for almost an hour and 45 mins and I was in the room with her for less than 10 minutes. Im not looking for a "band-aid" for my acne, Im looking for a solution to the underlying problem as to why Im breaking out, as a doctor with a degree and experience I thought that would come naturally but I guess not. BTW- I tried to return the stupid products that she had me spend $40 on in her office and I was told that I couldnt because I opened one of them and the other one I didnt even touch. Apparently they dont tell you this when you purchase products from her office but if you do- you cannot return them unless you have an allergic reaction to them. In which case, they will need to see you in the office again(so another co-pay and insurance bill) so they can "document" it.. Theyre only in it for the money- doesnt seem to be a genuine place to get help if you need it.

I went to this doctor. My appointment was for 11:40,I arrived at 11:30 to fill out paperwork. Told the receptionist I was there for a painful sore that appeared on my ear. I waited 1 hour as I watched other people coming in and being treated. I asked the receptionist why I was not being taken. She said the others were having surgery. At 12:30 I was brought into an examining room where more info was taken. I sat there til 1:00 waiting. I checked down the hall. It looked like everyone in the back had gone to lunch and left me there. I left after expressing my feelings about this practice. I have NEVER had to wait one hour and a half to see a physician. She cannot be that good.

She is an excellent doctor. I have no idea if I would be alive today if I did not visit her office. She found a skin cancer on my body where no other dermatologist noticed it on me. I consider myself lucky that I found Dr. B.
