I recently had a bad skin reaction to insect bites and so Nassau Detmatology took me in as an emergency visit. The office experience was amazing. Dr Feit was kind enough to get me into his schedule within an hour of my call. His prompt and efficient care got me on my way to feeling better. read more

Dr. Russel Cohen is the reason for my very negative review. He rushed through my appointment, cut me off multiple times, made jokes in poor taste, and left so quickly that I did not have a chance to ask him about some of my concerns. In addition, on one of the medications he prescribed, he put the wrong directions. Overall, I am extremely disappointed with Dr. Cohen. read more

Dr Cohen... in a word.... disappointing. He will not return a phone call, leaves you in the office unattended for over an hour after scheduled appointment ??? Seems to be preoccupied with getting you medicated without describing the good and bad aspects of the medication and quickly ushers you off to pay your insurance company's co pay then sends you an additional invoice ??? Would not recommend him or the firm he is partnered with. read more

I called the office YESTERDAY after a horrid experience with an awful dematologist elsewhere. I was given an appointment for the next day when I explained I was in pain due to a cyst. I saw Rebecca Sklar, PA-C. She could not have been nicer or more competent. Likewise the assistant. I was treated perfectly and completely. Will be back next week for a followup and I believe we have now found a new dermatology practice. Office staff was pleasant and location is perfect. read more

My husband and I go every year to get a skin check and the doctors. There are wonderful

Dr. Abitol continues to be friendly and efficient. She flies in and out. I go once a year for annual check up and juvaderm for lips. Her assistants/nurses are kind. It is important to not internalize the rushed feeling and to answer honestly if you have any concerns . I went in with concerns about throat rash and underchest rash but i got refills on prescriptions before the check up so i didnt bring it up. I was taken on time as usual and out within 20 min. Checking out and paying is easy. It remains worth it to me to continue to visit with the Dr. Despite it taking me over an hour to drive there. I recommend her for the quality and level of care given. Again, she is very quick but she will take the time if you ask about concerns explicitly read more

South Nassau Dermatology - After juvaderm 2.4.23 - Dermatologists Near Me - Oceanside, New York

See all

Excellent experience. they were efficient as regards appointment, smooth check in and checkout. Dr. Eric Feit was highly professional and efficient, asking needed questions, explaining procedures and follow up considerations respectfully and thoroughly. Highly recommended. read more

This is the sad and tragic story of a 15 -year -plus decline. This was once one of the greatest most efficient and effective medical practices on Long Island. And instead, I leave this practice after experience in a steady decline and quality and service after a TWO AND A HALF HOUR wait full of lies. even worse, even after making me wait for that long, and I left as I had another major engagement , they refuse to refill my prescriptions. I am sad to do this, I really am, but a more official complaint has now been submitted. So sad to have to review this practice so poorly. You have major choices LONG ISLAND and Queens for dermatological care, and this office should definitely no longer be one of them. read more

Received a phone call today 40 minutes before my appointment time saying Dr. Fiet was running ahead of time if we wanted to come in. Ok so rush in with my kids and get to wait in to room for 30 minutes. For the Dr to take all of 3 minutes and I think I blinked and he ran out the door. I wasn't finished asking questions. The assistant torn the paper wear my kid was sitting before he could even get his shoe back on. The Dr did apologize for the wait when he entered so that's where the 2 stars came from. 2nd office visit to treat a wart in a foot and was told to come back in a month I feel like they aren't fully getting rid of it so they can just keep charging my insurance company.. read more

Dr.Feit is caring and compassionate. Dr. Feit was the third dermatologist I had gone to , as the prior ones could not figure out what I had. Starting from my first appt he thoroughly explained his plan of treatment and what courses of medication he'd prescribe. Dr. Feit took the time to explain all the possibilities and answered my questions. I am so happy as I am now free of a terrible rash I had for almost 1 year. And, I am so appreciative of the Dr. Feit's expertise as a Dr. of Dermatology. I would highly recommend Dr. Feit read more

truly abysmal customer service. I go here SOLELY because Dr. Weinstein is the best and helped diagnose me with something serious, but their reception staff couldn't be ruder or nastier. When I call (whenever someone chooses to actually answer the phone) and ask if Dr. Weinstein had availability, their response was "PROBABLY NOT". I wish Dr.Weinstein would leave this practice so I could follow her somewhere with pleasant employees. read more

Doctors are great office staff sucks. Waiting time on the phone is a joke. Either it rings 50 times or they just pick it up and put you on endless hold. If Dr Lowenstein wasn't so great I would leave. read more

My previous doctor, who I LOVED, left the group and moved far away a few years ago. It's been difficult to find a replacement. Yesterday I saw Dr. Eric Feit, and he was very knowledgeable and personable. I will be going back. read more

Dr. Elie Lowenstein was early, efficient, and understanding. He listened to all of my concerns send addressed all of them. The office was a little crowded but the receptionists were nice and I barely had to wait. read more

Love, Dr. Lowenstein! We usually go to the Levitown office, but it was booked so we went to the Oceanside office. Dr. Lowenstein was very thorough and had great bedside manner. Highly recommend him! read more

The doctors are very good if you can deal with the WORST office staff ever. Terrible ar answering, terrible at returning calls, tell you they've done or sent something repeatedly when they didn't, not to mention the absurd waiting times in the office. It's a shame, this WAS a great practice at one time and it's been run into the ground. So many other good places around without the aggravation, find one of them. read more

I have been a patient for 10 years and Dr Kornreish is a pleasure. I am treated like family which is rare in a medical practice these days. I recommend this practice. read more

Staff was great. Dr. Silverman was fantastic. Answered all of my questions with ease. Was recommended by a friend and I will rake it forward. read more

Dr Russel Cohen has ALWAYS been nothing but great to us over the years. He is personable and professional at the same time. His office has helped me receive treatments through insurance for hyperhidrosis that I used to pay out of pocket for. Dr. Cohen is the kind of doctor that should train other doctors. The front desk has always been nice. The only complaint I can think of is that sometimes it is a long wait, but I never ever felt rushed when I am with the doctor. read more

Front desk was rude, dismissive and unnecessarily difficult at best when I attempted to check in and inquire if the doctor was running on time. A course in customer service and basic human decency is much needed at the Oceanside location. This unpleasant encounter will have me moving my family to another practice. read more

Dr.Russell Cohen is the best ! The only dermatologist who knew what was my problem with my hands .

Oh my God, the WORSTTTTTTTT dermatology office EVER. I tried to suck up and deal before I did the research and found a better, punctual, more professional office but I literally waited 2 hours before being seen - on more than one occasion. Clearly, I'm the fool for going back but I thought that maybe it was a one time occasion. Once I got in the room, the dermatologists were dismissive and literally prescribed me the same thing I said didn't work. To make matters better, I got written up at work because I scheduled to take 1.5 hours off that day, since I was assured that the visit (including wait time) would take no more than 45 minutes. I will NEVERRRRRRRRRRRRRR set foot in that horrible office again. Oh and that parking SUCKS! read more

I made my appointment 3 weeks in advance and although I hated to wait this long, I was really looking forward to a solution for my skin issues because this derm had great reviews online. However, the consultation felt really rushed. If I didnt do most of the asking and talking( which should really be the other way around) this couldve lasted less than 5 mins!! It was up to me to decide what I felt comfortable doing but that's not what I wanted at all! I wanted THEM to do the asking and talking and conclude what's best. NOT just walk in, take a quick look, and tell me what to take in 30 seconds. The dermatologist might really be good, but MY personal experience left me unsatisfied. :( **P.S I waited about an hour past scheduled time to be seen. 2 people got up and told the receptionist to reschedule because they could not wait any longer. I was warned by a friend who's been here before that the wait was terrible. Youre warned. read more

I've been going to South Nassau Dermatology for close to 10 years and I would not go anywhere else. All the doctors are top notch, they listen to exactly what is going on and treat as needed. I've seen several doctors from this office and each were kind, alert, and informative. The office is clean and the staff is nice, be prepared to wait a while, the office is always packed. read more

I went in to the Long Beach office to get a check up. Dr Elie Lowenstein took 3 biopsies and said they would advise the results in 7-10 days. It is now over a month later and I STILL haven't heard back from them. I have called a total of four times; twice left a voice mail and twice talked to the office receptionist who twice assured me that she would advise the doctor to get back to me. In all my years dealing with doctors and dentists I have never seen such unprofessional behavior. Needless to say I won't be going back and advise others not to go here either. If you do GOOD LUCK!!! read more

I have been a patient for a very longtime. I've recommended so many people over my time as their patient. Things have been changing and not in a good way, since before the pandemic. The receptionists have always been curt and not particularly friendly however it's gotten worse. The doctor I have been seeing for years has started to rush through exams and unless I point out something, it is overlooked. Sadly, I feel this slow and steady decline is a sign for me to move on. read more

I had an appointment yesterday morning with Dr. Weinstein. She was very thorough with the examination. I arrived at 8:00 a.m. on a Saturday morning so there was no wait time. I have been using the South Nassau Dermatology for years and never had any negative issues or billing problems. All the doctors are very professional. read more

I've been a patient for 20 years and lost my job and now SNDermatology won't accept my (lesser) insurance. I'm a big fan of Dr Kornreisch and disappointed that I have to find someone else. read more

Great group of doctors, however the wait time is just unacceptable! I say for 45 minutes waiting to get my allergy shots. When I asked the receptionist how long the doctor was running late her response was,"You think this bad, it's usually worse!" Not what I wanted to hear after sitting in a crowded waiting room fir over an hour. I had heard about this office from other staff. I was actually cautioned not to come here. As luck would have it, it's the only place within proximity of my home to get my shots. Unacceptable! read more

After struggling with acne for a few months I decided to go see a dermatologist. I was recommended to see Dr. Silverman at South Nassau Dermatology - trusting this person's advice I made an appt. They said they couldn't see me for over a month. Nonetheless, I made the appt and sucked it up with bad skin the weeks prior to this appt. First off, terrible parking along Hempstead turnpike. Now, I understand its a busy street and not much parking for the other businesses as well but this was terrible parking for such a huge office building. Second, after finally finding street parking I was greeted by a very nice front desk assistant (the best part of the appt) She politely took my paperwork and asked me to sit (showed me where the magazines were etc.. I should have known I would be waiting for a while when she showed me the magazines.) Almost a half hour of waiting and I was finally called in to see the Dr. I spoke with one nurse/assistant (her position wasn't clear) she didn't seem to care about what I had to say but wrote down a few things on an index card. After she left I waited another 5-10 minutes for the Dr. He came in and did not initially introduce himself which I found odd.. only after he asked me to take seat on the exam bed did he mention his name. He didn't even take a look at my skin and spoke to the ground the whole time. He mentioned a few fancy names for acne and said I should get a topical prescription lotion/gel and an antibiotic. He had a second nurse/assistant write everything down and then passed me off to her. As for the topical prescription gel I asked if it would help my skin (being he barely looked at my face I found his response comical) he said it works for 98% of people - that's great but will it work for me - both his and the nurse's response - "yeah, people like it". He bowed out and told me to make an appointment for 3 months to see how my skin was coming along - I could have told him today that my skin would be fabulous because I would be seeing a different Dr. A Dr that actually LOOKED at my face and skin to analyze what was going on. Safe to say, I told them NOT to put my prescription through and did not buy "their" lotion - because I felt I can't trust someone who I just paid to analyze my skin and he DIDNT EVEN LOOK AT MY FACE, not even while talking to me. I will NOT be going back there or recommending this office to anyone. read more

These doctors at this office RUSH YOU and don't even allow you to ask questions. It's all about getting one patient in and out quickly to get to the next. I was given medication for what they doctor thought I had after examining me for less than 2 minutes. I am thoroughly disappointed and am considering finding another doctor. Very poor bedside manner!!!!!!! read more

The wait time at this dermatology office is unreasonable. The current pandemic made the situation worse because the wait time is the same but the chairs in the waiting room are blocked off. So now you still wait over an hour to be called in but you can't sit down. They should probably start taking temperatures before you enter the waiting room. Taking someone's temperature after they have been standing in the crowded waiting room for an hour seems to be a little backward. It's definitely time for a new dermatologist. read more

A practice with excellent doctors, just be prepared to wait. Patients are now booked in ten minute intervals. When you consider the average check up probably takes 10 minutes, and that if anything is removed, that time could easily double, you'll get an idea who they are running an hour behind by 10:45 AM read more

Story time. I called to make an appointment because I ran out of my prescription. The lady on the phone told me the doctor would be back in on the 6th and then suddenly told me she could squeeze me in on the 4th. She gave me very confusing information and then HUNG UP on me. This made me very angry, however I was glad I at least had an appointment. Or so I thought! I was supposed to come in this morning, but I called beforehand to confirm since the whole thing seemed sketchy. I'm pretty sure the same woman picked up the phone and she told me I did NOT have an appointment. Although I like my doctor, I may have to switch offices due to this experience. read more

This review is about the receptionist, not the doctors. I, unfortunately, never got to see the doctors because I was never able to make an appointment. Receptionist was rude and impossible to work with. I'm a patient person, but eventually I just said forget it and hung up. read more

I would give Dr. Russell Cohen 3 stars but the front desk zip! O! Nothing!!! After reading all the other reviews I am not alone in stating that I have never been in the unfortunate precense of such rude, stupid, and nasty front desk people. i won't even give the title of receptonist to them they don't deserve it! It's a shame because I went for a Surgical procedure for some sun damage on my face which my insurance covered. I then wanted to do some cosmetic work which is out of pocket but I didn't care. Dr Cohen was wonderful and after paying alot of money I was satisfied and decided to have addtional work done on my face. The first appointment I waited 30 minutes and then was seen. The second appointment I waited 45 minutes after my schedule time and then was put in a room only after I complained and after 30 minutes in the room finally went out to the front area and asked if the doctor went home! They said he was backed up so I said I'm leavin if I don't get to see him now. He came in and apologized. Now I go back on Tuesday last night for followup and checked in 10 minutes before my appointment for god forbid you get there late because then the girls give you an attitude. I waited a half hour after my time and by then everyone was complaining and walking out. I went up to say that if I wasn't taken soon I would leave and the b---h told me you only waited a half hour! I left and unless the doctors get smart and either train their front desk in customer service I will not go back. Denise Farrell 9/11/19 read more

I previously wrote a review that I shouldn't have. I was angry and upset about a medication and I wrote about it here. That was completely wrong of me. Dr. Russell Cohen has gone above and beyond to help me. He is kind, caring, and compassionate. Everything you want in a physician. I drive 45 minutes from home to see him. He's that good. I wouldn't use anyone else. read more

an appt was made for my husband to get a specific spot checked, in addition to a full body check. he said they were nice enough, but felt rushed. NO BODY CHECK WAS EVER DONE, & because my husband didn't know what to expect, he came home a little confused. yes, they removed the spot & sent it out for biopsy, but because a full check wasn't done, he discovered another suspicious irregular spot & i made him an appt with island dermatology in long beach. if the full body check was done, he wouldn't have had to go elsewhere. that's what you get when you book appts EVERY TEN MINUTES. disgraceful. GO TO ISLAND DERM IN LONG BEACH, DR. CERVENY, EXCELLENT!!! read more

Makes people of color uncomfortable. Front desk Receptionists can be very rude and dismissive.

Dr. Russell Cohen is great but the office staff is rude and unaccommodating. Also expect to wait at least an hour of your scheduled appointment time and don't expect the staff to be upfront about the realistic wait time read more
