I believe Jamie especially has repeatedly shown BAD-FAITH,…read moreUNETHICAL, GREEDY, DECEPTIVE, MANIPULATIVE, MISLEADING and COERCIVE conduct and tactics that are primarily focused on keeping your money and not refunding you for what I consider a botched cosmetic result with even hard bumps under the skin that Dr. Ahdout had to manipulate which was painful. The focus should be on transparency as well as patient's health and well-being - not GREED. They also violate boundaries. Dr. Ahdout gave me her word that Jamie would not contact me further. Yet, Jamie contacted me despite my numerous written and verbal requests to cease contact. I believe I may be able to file a police report for harassment. Additionally, I believe Jamie even went as far as providing DECEPTIVE MISINFORMATION about matters that can affect health in further attempts to not refund me. I believe this is highly unethical and concerning conduct especially for a dermatologist office. I am posting this review after multiple attempts to resolve this matter. I left a message and sent emails the first time and I did not receive a call from Dr. Ahdout. The same thing happened a second time. I posted a review the first time and Jamie called right away so I removed it. When I went in to show Dr. Ahdout the result of her work - I felt gaslit because she was questioning me as to why she would do a job like this. She again asked on the phone yesterday as what I think happened - a question she herself should answer. She then said there are no before and after photos. I reminded her AGAIN that I have before photos on my phone that her own assistant took. Dr. Ahdout then asked if I would agree to a credit. I declined. She then said that they have a "policy" that once a patient asks for a refund they can't return to the office. I informed her that I would not want to work with a business that has punitive policies. I believe both her conduct and Jamie's conduct revolved mainly around keeping my money. When I first brought up the refund, Jamie immediately became aggressive on the phone and used what felt like patronizing repetition. She kept repeating my name aggressively as soon as I mentioned a refund, which felt like an attempt to cut me off and silence me. Jamie even went as far suggesting that the tightness was "normal". She even pointed to her face claiming she felt the same. I knew the tightness was not normal. When I asked Dr. Ahdout, she confirmed that it was not normal. I do not appreciate being gaslighted or having my concerns normalized as though this is something I should simply tolerate. This involves health and providing misinformation to patients can have great liability. Jamie also asked if I would want to do a correction. I declined. I noted in my review and also in an email to Dr. Ahdout's as well as during her call yesterday that I do not want to interact with Jamie at all. Dr. Ahdout GAVE ME HER WORD that she will call me back herself. Dr. Ahdout did NOT keep her word. Instead Jamie called and went back and forth attempting to claim that it wasn't 2 items I purchased and it was 1.5. She said Dr. Ahdout said there was "a confusion" and it was 1.5 items. I informed her that's false. Besides Dr. Ahdout's own prior confirmations - the invoice is more than clear. I explained, again, that Dr. Ahdout confirmed with me TWICE, once in front of her own assistant in person and again on the phone yesterday, that it was 2 items. Jamie went back and forth for at least 10 minutes arguing. I kept asking her to ask Dr. Ahdout. She refused 3 times and continued to argue. I kept mentioning what I paid for. She finally checked my invoice although she had ALREADY SEEN my invoice as she is the one who charged me AND even emailed it to me. She FINALLY agreed it was 2 items. I believe these practices are EXTREMELY DECEPTIVE and GREEDY. Then Jamie said their "corporate" is going to send me an email to sign "a form". I told her I'm not signing a release form as I need to see another doctor. Patients should not be forced to sign a release form to receive a refund. Jamie said their corporate "requires" this and that they will contact me. AGAIN, she displayed a pattern of violating boundaries and as soon as I would say their corporate did not have my consent to contact me - she would BLATANTLY REPEAT they will contact me. I informed her that at this point I have to do a full chargeback on the 2 items. I contacted my bank and did a full chargeback on the agreed upon amount. If they create ANY extra emotional distress and dispute the chargeback - I will immediately involve my counsel without further notice and use ALL legal remedies to not only obtain my money in full, but to also hold them fully liable for all damages including corrections needed and the emotional distress caused related to this matter and their conduct. I will also expand my online review to other platforms as I see fit.

Every member of the staff was warm, welcoming, and genuinely pleasant, making the entire experience comfortable from start to finish. What truly sets Dr. Rahimi apart is his exceptional bedside manner. Unlike many dermatologists I've seen in the past, he took the time to get to know me, thoroughly explain my concerns, discuss my treatment options, and even share his professional background and the many specialties he offers. I never felt rushed, and it was clear that he genuinely cares about his patients. His practice offers a wide range of dermatologic and cosmetic services at very reasonable prices. It's refreshing to find a dermatologist who provides outstanding care without making you feel like great skin is only for those with unlimited budgets. You don't have to be rich to receive excellent dermatologic care. After seeing many dermatologists over the years, I can honestly say this was by far the most personal and patient-centered experience I've had. If you're looking for a knowledgeable, compassionate dermatologist who truly takes the time to listen, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. David Rahimi. You won't be disappointed.

I can't believe I never left Dr.B a review after all these years! I think I filed it in the cloud…read morein my my mind and never actually posted it. So here it goes! Dr.B is the best dermatologist in town. Period. That is it. That is all. I actually started seeing him for my problematic medical dermatology issues- acne, eczema, years ago in the before times ! It is very hard to find a great Dermatologist in LA that will treat you for true medical Derm issues that are chronic or autoimmune. Most Derms only want to do the fancy cosmetic stuff. And Dr B does that too! Don't get me wrong! He'll make Your skin look like a million bucks with all the lasers and gadgets and all the things ! He can and will do that if that's what you want. But if you're like me, you can't even deal with making your skin look rejuvenated if you have chronic medical skin issues that are not sexy and have to be handled first. Inflammation and irritation. He has helped me manage those conditions so that I could have clear skin first and foremost. He will check your skin and make sure you have don't have any skin cancer issues which is super important even if you're brown/have ethnic skin like me!! Dr B has so much experience treating melaninated people like me which is soooooo important because we scar and hyperpigment so much more. And if any nasty skin cancer does rear its head, he will catch it early. With his most expert hand, if something needs to be removed, no one would ever know you were dealing with a serious issue because he uses his magic techniques to remove the baddies and leave almost no trace or scar. He always approaches skin issues with this approach to solve your problem but also cause as little injury as possible in the process. Let's not remove one problem and create a bigger one in its place! I love Dr.B so much because he's really knows his stuff, he's kind and compassionate and he really thinks things through and listens to me. I always have faith that he has given me the best course of action. He's also the most super chill and cool dude! I always enjoy seeing him even though i have to show him my not so cute looks!

When it comes time to have any type of more immediate skin health treatments or surgery, you want to make sure that you are in the hands of an expert in their field, who has the eye of an artist with the skillset of a master craftsman. After over 8 months of research and reading hundreds of patient testimonials, I was lucky enough to find Dr. Daniel Behroozan at The Dermatology Institute of Southern California with offices in BH and Santa Monica. From skin checks to biopsies to sometimes stressful surgeries, Dr. B and his staff treated me like I was important, and that my case mattered. Not only did the doctor explain everything in detail, but he also answered my many questions, and his office staff did everything possible to keep me calm and comfortable. So, everyone there was friendly, yet wonderfully professional at the same time. And to add to this overall doctor-patient experience, Dr. B. has a great sense of humor and had me laughing many times throughout my procedure, plus he even put on Coldplay for me to chill out to, during surgery and stitch-up. So, talk about a personal touch, yes indeed. With more treatments to come for me, it's such a great feeling to know that Dr. Behroozan and his PAs and office staff are now on-going medical members of my Los Angeles A-Team for Skincare Health, Wellness & Surgery, whenever needed. Thank you, Dr. B.!

I've also consulted him for other complex dermatological concerns, and in every instance, his diagnosis and treatment were accurate and effective. Dr. Danesh is not only a skilled dermatologist but also a compassionate and trustworthy physician. I recommend him without hesitation.

An Exceptional Physician -- Truly Rare in Today's Healthcare System…read more.. I don't write reviews often, but Dr. Brandon E. Cohen (Dermatologist) @ the Cedars Sinai Dermatology Dept in their West LA and Beverly Hills dermatology offices has earned one of the highest recommendations I can possibly give. In an era where medical care often feels rushed, transactional, or impersonal, Dr. Cohen is a genuine outlier -- a physician who treats patients with genuine concern, not just cases to move through on a schedule. From my very first visit, it was clear this wasn't going to be a typical dermatology appointment. Dr. Cohen took the time to really listen -- not just to my immediate skin concerns, but to my broader health history and lifestyle. He asked thoughtful questions I hadn't been asked by other doctors, and it was obvious he was building a complete picture of my skin health rather than just addressing symptoms on the surface. What sets him apart most is his follow-through. He doesn't just treat you and send you on your way -- he actually follows up. I can always count on hearing from him after my visits or procedures to check how I was healing. That level of continuity of care is something I've rarely, if ever, experienced with a physician. His attention to detail is remarkable. He notices things other doctors might overlook, and he explains his reasoning clearly -- I always leave an appointment understanding not just what he's doing, but why. He never makes me feel rushed, even when I know his schedule must be packed. Beyond the clinical skill, his bedside manner is genuinely warm. He's patient, reassuring, and treats every concern -- big or small -- as worth taking seriously. It's clear he cares about outcomes, not just appointments. On top of that, all of his PA's, nurse associates, and even front desk folks all work together like a smooth symphony of excellence. Kudos to their entire team. If you're looking for a dermatologist who combines top-tier clinical expertise with real, sustained care for your well-being, I can't recommend Dr. Brandon E. Cohen highly enough. He is, without exaggeration, the ideal of what a wonderful dermatologist/physician should be. George Leon

It was on my head so I understand how it was difficult to see under hair but it ended up coming out weeks later by itself 2) The booking time to get an appointment can be pretty far out and getting in same day/week is not going to happen.
