I've had such a positive experience with Dr. Brittany Buhalog at Luminous Dermatology. One of the…read morefirst things that stood out to me was that I've been able to get in relatively quickly each time I've called, which has been a refreshing change from other offices where the wait can be months. Dr. Buhalog is incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and approachable. She takes the time to explain everything clearly and makes sure you feel comfortable and informed every step of the way. Her calm, collaborative style really puts you at ease, and you can tell she genuinely cares about her patients. I also really appreciate her expertise and attention to detail. Knowing she has such an impressive background in dermatology and Mohs surgery gives me a lot of confidence in the care I'm receiving. I'm so glad I found her and would highly recommend Dr. Buhalog to anyone looking for a skilled, thoughtful, and compassionate dermatologist.

I have been a patient at this office for several years. I am a 39-year-old registered nurse with a…read morehistory of invasive melanoma and multiple melanoma in situs. I have seen multiple dermatologists and was specifically referred to a physician at this office for her reputation as a leading specialist in this field. My first two appointments, I was very impressed. The medical assistants communicated effectively with the physician and appeared to understand the seriousness and complexity of my medical history. Unfortunately, my experience has steadily declined since then. At my previous appointment, the physician introduced herself by saying, "It's nice to meet you," even though I had seen her multiple times before. I do not expect a physician to personally remember every patient, but I do expect the provider or medical assistant to review the relevant history and previous visit notes before entering the room, especially for a patient with an extensive history. My experience on July 16th (today) was the final straw. My appointment was scheduled for 11:40 a.m. I drove an hour to the office and arrived approximately 15 minutes early. I checked in at the front desk, provided the credit card information required under their new policy, and was told that I was checked in. I asked whether I had time to move my car because I had parked very close to another vehicle in their small parking lot. The front desk employee told me, "Yes, the doctor is running behind, so you have time." I returned to the waiting room by 11:35 a.m., five minutes before my scheduled appointment. After waiting approximately 45 minutes, I was finally taken to an examination room. The medical assistant showed little interest in why I was there and appeared unfamiliar with my medical history. She instructed me to undress and remove my facial makeup because the appointment was for a full-body skin examination and follow-up of an area of precancerous cells on my face. After she left, I could hear her talking with another medical assistant. Eventually, everything became quiet. I remained undressed in the examination room until approximately 12:40 p.m., a full hour after my scheduled appointment time and 1 hour and 15 minutes after my arrival time. I finally stepped into the hallway and told a male medical assistant that I believed I had been forgotten. He told me that everyone was on their lunch break and that he was not sure what had happened. I asked, "They left me waiting undressed in a room while everyone went to lunch?" He confirmed that the staff was at lunch. I returned to the room and got dressed. As I was leaving, he claimed that I had arrived late. I explained that I had arrived 15 minutes early and had been checked in by the front desk. He then said the front desk had not notified the clinical staff that I was there. He also told me that because I was supposedly there for a cosmetic appointment, he could reschedule me for a longer appointment with a different provider. I explained that this was not a cosmetic appointment. I have had melanoma 10 times and was there for a full-body skin examination and follow-up with a melanoma specialist. Before leaving, I explained the situation to the front desk employee, who said she would notify the manager. I then drove an hour back to work after losing several hours for an appointment that never occurred. Approximately five minutes after I left, the medical assistant who had initially taken me to the room called me. She stated that the front desk had marked me as a no-show and acknowledged that she had placed me in an examination room after the doctor had already gone to lunch. She also admitted that she should have told me. To summarize, I arrived early, was confirmed as checked in, waited approximately 45 minutes in the lobby, and was then left undressed in an examination room for another 30 minutes while the physician and staff went to lunch. No one informed me of the mistake, explained the delay, or checked on me. I have no idea how long I would have remained there had I not stepped into the hallway myself. The lack of communication, awareness of my medical history, and basic professional courtesy was unacceptable. Because I work in healthcare and have an extensive history of skin cancer, people frequently ask me for dermatologist recommendations. Based on this experience and the decline in care I have observed over time, I will no longer recommend this office. This was an extraordinarily unprofessional and concerning experience.

Dr. Lowenstein is an extremely skilled and compassionate surgeon. I highly recommend him to anyone…read moresuffering from migraines. My 20 year old son has suffered with debilitating pain/migraines for the past 7 years. He has been in constant daily pain that entire time, the only thing that would relieve his pain was weekly nerve blocks and even those would only reduce his pain for 1-2 days. He wasn't able to attend school in person or get a job. He has missed countless family/friend events and has missed out on so much of his childhood and teenage years. He has greatly suffered physically and mentally/emotionally for years. We found Dr. Lowenstein during a google search and he has completely changed my sons life and future. My son had nerve decompression surgery from Dr. Lowenstein for supratrochlear neuralgia. He woke up from surgery completely pain free and remains pain free for the first time in 7 years! Dr. Lowenstein is a very knowledgeable and skilled plastic surgeon who took great care during surgery to address my sons issues and alleviate his pain, he also created an incision that would heal with minimal scaring. Dr. Lowenstein's pre and post surgical care was very thorough. He is very conscientious with his patients care and well being. He took greats steps to avoid any complications or infections and my son had an extremely smooth recovery due to these efforts. The entire staff at Dr. Lowenstein's office were amazing and such a pleasure to work with! We felt supported and informed throughout the entire process. Crystal, the office manager, was the first person I interacted with when I called. She was so nice and helpful. Christina, the patient coordinator, was very empathetic and supportive to what we were going through. She was very knowledgeable about the surgery and she walked us through each step of the process, even helping us find a hotel to stay at. Christina was very helpful and organized and made me feel like we were in good hands. Jodi and Shelley were my sons nurses, they were so caring and compassionate and really made us feel at ease and well taken care of. Jodi called us several weeks before the surgery and went over everything in detail and answered all of our questions. Jodi was my sons nurse the day of surgery and she really helped calm our nerves. She kept in contact with me before and after the surgery which I really appreciated. When I was overcome with joy and tears after seeing my son pain free Jodi was there to share in my excitement. My sons anesthesiologist, Cory, was very reassuring and professional, we instantly felt comfortable and safe with him. We had Shelley during our consultation and post op appointments. Shelley genuinely shared in our joy and was so supportive. My son and I both felt like he was in great hands with everyone at Dr. Lowenstein's office and that we had made the right decision to move forward with his decompression surgery. This surgery has been life changing for our entire family and we are forever grateful to Dr. Lowenstein for his expertise and his passion to fight for those suffering from migraines and nerve pain. Dr. Lowenstein was thrilled with my sons outcome and so compassionate. I highly recommend Dr. Lowenstein and his staff to anyone suffering from migraines. Dr. Lowenstein is doing very important work and I hope that this surgery will become more well known in the medical community so that more people suffering can find relief like my son has.
