Yes, Dr. Herebold is amazing. I have been a patient if his since 2011. I followed him to the Manteca office from Stockton. I just found out today 1/6/26, he "retired" in November 2025. Just a little upset sine no notifications went out. He is the inly reason I would travel out of town for a doctors appt read more

Dr herbold is amazing. I'm a mom. I've seen him for myself and my children. He is so knowledgeable and assesses the problem quickly and prescribes the best treatment possible. I'm so glad his new office with GSD accepts our insurance. read more

Dr. Herbold treated two of my children about 20 years ago and I felt he was doing a satisfactory job, although he had simple tasks such as administering cortisone. I was recently referred to Dr. Herbold by my primary care physician for a slight growth on my backside that did not respond well to the topical creams my doctor had prescribed. After waiting a long time for him in the exam room; this after they asked me earlier if I could come to my appointment earlier than the scheduled time for Herbold's convenience, which I did. Not a real big deal. I'm used to waiting for a doctor/doctors because their office staff over-booked. After Herbold came into the room he was accompanied by a young lady, probably in her late teens, early 20s. He did not introduce her, but asked me to pull my pants down. I asked him, who she was. I don't remember his answer, but she was not a doctor or nurse. He used a special light to illuminate the growth on my butt, and asked her to look at it. I'm an elderly man and don't really care that much who looks at my butt. The fact that he failed to introduce her and just assumed she could watch my private parts is galling? He is very unprofessional. Maybe, like too many doctors, he thinks he is God! I won't be returning to him. read more

Herbold, what else needs to be said? Proof is in results... I'm sorry for you Rachel because of the enormous pressure you were in responding to my review. But my experience with Herbold, as others have commented on shows his unprofessional intolerable treatment of patients. As for the "Pit Viper" as called by another patient is a CNA not RN nor LVN, she told me this herself when I asked her what her education level was. She is not trained nor certified for the procedures Herbold instructs her to preform. My illegal Chemo injection by the CNA; for a tiny white pimple on my left cheek turned into (see photos) Squamous Basal Cell Carcinoma. When I returned to Herbold's office after my primary Dr T. Ali recognized the cancer and sent the sample off for review, Herbold was sarcastic, intrusive trying to over talk me, but I wasn't having any of that...eventually, to my satisfaction, Herbold told me I was not a fit for his office as I did not understand time management, as he has to feed his family and the 3/4 personnel as well. Soooo I get it Herbold $$$$ first!! ie. Time management, Ha! So thankful for Stanford Dermatologic Mohs Surgery, and Dr. T Hollmig, I will live. If anyone has a doubt of this Herbold's mind set, read the reviews. Also check on disciplinary actions taken against him. Last thought, DO NOT GO TO K. HERBOLD!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

See all

I'm a very fair person, and it always saddens me to leave a one star negative review. For the last two years I've been struggling with Kyle on some of the simplest things and it's quite obvious that he doesn't care. I suffer from seborrheic dermatitis around by nose and that's obviously the middle of my face so it matters to me quite a bit obviously. Two years ago I went in for it and he gave me a cortico steroid for it. After some research I learned that it's just diluted bug bite anti-itch cream that thins your skin which basically ruins your face. The other prescription was 700 dollars for a months supply with a couple with my Blue Cross/ Blue Shield benefits. That's more than half of my mortgage. After playing cat and mouse with his office staff they had no solution because he doesn't take the time to research what medications are affordable with certain insurances. Of course he still got paid. Now in 2018 it all repeated again- I told him what I'd been through and he tried to push sulfur shampoo on me. Yep that's right- BRIMSTONE! As if I hadn't already researched all the shampoos online and on Amazon (Amazon reviews are more helpful to him. He again tried to peddle his coupons to me and again I'm faced with a 700 dollar prescription. So I go to my pharmacist and he's in shock as he said "He did this to you again? He's a professional and should try to learn more about what insurance prices are- in fact have him call me directly as there's a 10 dollar equivalent that does the same thing. Kyle refused, and in fact he had his office staff do anything but that as they'd rather argue than listen to a simple request such as calling my pharmacist to work it out. Six phone calls later they're still fighting me and refuse to call my pharmacist or help. This Kyle Herbold has an all female harem that he flirts with vigorously and they all worship their little king that keeps them employed. It's pretty disgusting and the office manager is beyond rude. Please save yourself from this travesty of a doctor and human being and go elsewhere. Sincerely. read more

I went to Dr. Hart for many years. When he retired, his office sent me to Dr. Herbold. I really like his office staff and I like him. He is friendly, efficient, helpful and reasonable. He doesn't waste time. I am a nurse and I won't see anyone that I wouldn't recommend. read more

I always find it interesting and quite honestly rather suspicious when the only reviews for a business come from Yelp profiles with no real-time picture of the actual human who wrote and posted them..... Although I do tend to agree at least in part with Stacey B.'s review a picture gives one credibility... But hey, that's just me..... Okay so this review could get brutally long and in all honesty it probably will, however since I've had time to get past the last few nightmarish patient appointments there after being a patient for several years to Quail Lakes Dermatology where Dr. Herbold works I'm ready to make it as short, sweet and to the point as possible with my LOVE's/DISLIKE's listed below... LOVE: The way the office staff & Dr.Herbold USED to be back in the day when the office 'girls' were friendly, helpful respectful and one in particular wore a muzzle.... The nice office space that was neat and clean..... The refills I would get on my prescriptions which were in good form not requiring a patient to return to the office after one or two refills only to have to get another script requiring an unnecessary office visit.... That while on my medication I was pleased with the condition of my skin.... DISLIKES: How Dr.Herbold went from being a rather 'normal' dermatologist to one of the many in the masses who now has his focus on cosmetic surgery, especially in office procedures, botox injections, injections of different beatifying sorts and the like and of course pushing it down this particular patients throat when all I came in for was to have some moles checked and possibly one removed there in the office to save me time.... And this after having to take a half of a day off from work just to drive there one hour away from where I was living..... Being put into an exam room on more than one occasion and waiting for an hour before I finally opened the door and politely asked when I could expect to see the great doctor only to have my head bitten off by the unmuzzled one noted above as if to infer "How dare you!" be so tacky as to ask such a question.... Lastly but definitely not the least of this little shop of horrors was my very last and final trip to this office...... Which was just described above where the pit viper, a short little portly woman with a permanent scowl etched on her face made her usual and customary snorts, grunts and sarcastically intrusive sounds and commentary in addition to contorting and twisting her face in an attempt to belittle me during a conversation I was having with another one of the office staff about the poor communication and service received in the office on this day...... Clearly she was unaccustomed to patients addressing her on that behavior and when I did she went directly to Herbold himself. As I stood there in front of both the doctor and the entire office staff I informed them that I wanted copies of my medical records as I would be taking my business elsewhere..... No apology for my excessive wait time, intolerable & unprofessional behavior of his staff or anything remotely professionally conducive came from him or his office staff..... ICING ON THE CAKE: When I received a letter 2 weeks later BEFORE I could mail my own out officially resigning from the patient panel that it would be them releasing me from their panel instead due to my intolerance of their unprofessional treatment..... Damn if that didn't chap my hide as they beat me to the punch but that's okay.... Appointments at least for Herbold were less than easily had as he commuted between two different offices which was another nuisance but since derm docs are hard to find I stuck it out as long as I could until I could take no more... ~The End read more

Best dermatologist we have seen! I went with my husband to see him. And, we both felt exactly the same!The office itself was clean and pleasant. The office staff was marvelous professional. But, Dr. Herbold was wonderful. There was a minimum wait time. Dr. Herbold was conscientious, personable and kind. read more

Dr. Herbold provided less than expected care. Certainly not within what would be termed "accepted" practices. Did not ask about past medical history (which would have helped to drill down quickly to a solution) or past experiences with any skin treatments and as a consequence was unable to provide a tailored treatment program. Felt like a very perfunctory and impersonal visit. Would not recommend this doctor's services as he failed to meet routine standards of care. read more
