Advanced DermCare (CT) Reviews ( 211 )

  1. Dr. Grace Federman is simply the best! I have been her patient for many years, and appreciate her expertise and “bedside “ manner… very rare these days…

  2. I moved to Williamsburg, VA last year and still kept my appointment Dr Zirn for my 6 month full body scan. Discussing my next visit he made clear the would work with me to help accommodate my visit with my travel schedule when I was coming back to the area. Just great service.

  3. I called I had burn marks around my face after a waxing- I was on hold 20 min.- left my phone number for return call- never happened – called next day- stayed on hold- asked to make an appointment due concern on my face- the secretary told …

  4. While waiting an unusually long time I found out that 2 others had the same appointment time as I did for the same Dr.???
    When I finally had my appointment, everything was great.

  5. Thank you Dr. Zirn, Andrea and the front desk team at Advanced DermCare for another excellent check up and treatment experience. I’ll look forward to next time!

  6. Dr. Goldberg his terrible, and all the Receptionist they think they owe the entire office. They’re very rude over the phone. The nurses are horrible. I had a very bad experience, and I will never go back there again. Don’t trust that office.

  7. Everyone is always so pleasant, and helpful. Even with current Covid precautions you are in and out without close contact with other patients in a timely fashion.

  8. Recently I attempted to schedule a new appointment, in 3 calls, spent a total of 60 min on hold waiting for a resceptionist. Left messages with no response. When I pressed “1” for calling from a physicians office I got a snappy repark about …

  9. Covid 19 measures taken at the front entrance. Hand cleaner dispensers readily available in rooms and doorways. Staff is friendly and I was in and out quickly but not rushed.

  10. After my mom switched her health insurance provider they said they stopped supporting it and pretty much abandoned me ( a long time patient) and my mother. Plus the secretaries were really rude, every time you’d call it’d seem like they …

  11. Have been using Advanced Dermcare for over 30 years and have seen a deterioration in its practice. Just spent well over an hour on phone trying to make an appt. ( while on speaker so I could do my chores) however never reached them. Last OV …

  12. Jillian Philbin was very professional, thorough, unrushed, and personable, and she took the time to explain her observations. Office staff very efficient.

  13. I never have an issue scheduling appointments and I never have to wait long to see the doctor. The staff is really friendly and makes you feel welcomed and comfortable.

  14. What a terrible costumer service. I tried to make an appt for my son, I was on hold for over 10 min and finally got a very lousy and stupid associate, she was uncertain to what info to get. After answering all the basic question without …

  15. Dr. Goldberg has been great however the support staff in the Danbury office makes me want to switch doctors. Extremely long wait times and often times rude unwilling to help staff up front – Trying to resolve a problem over the phone and …

  16. Going to see Dr Federman is the birthday gift I give myself each year. Having had skin cancer 45 years ago, I appreciate her skilled care and leave confident of another healthy year gone by.

  17. Very rudely treated on phone. No help at all. All I was told was no appointments until September. Asked if there was anything that could be done, I was again told no appointments until September. I have a scalp that is burning. Then …

  18. I have visited with
    many of the doctors here. They are all professional and dead on resolving complicated issues to simple rashes. The nurses have …

  19. I have been going to advanced dermcare for over 15 years..Every doctor and nurse have been wonderful except for Dr.Zirn…My daughter had an appointment today about possible hives from medication,turns out it was eczema.Anyways Dr.Zirn …

  20. Dr. Federman is thorough, kind, positive, and professional. My appointment was on-time, and the office took covid safety seriously. Highly recommend!

  21. I have seen several doctors in this practice and not only the doctors but the entire staff has been courteous, helpful and patient. I think those that have complained about poor customer services might be missing the real issues: …

  22. Although I had a pleasant experience with the scheduler and front desk staff, this is a cosmetic surgery/med spa and may not be the best place to receive practical dermal care. I have a mole on my right cheek that I’ve had my entire life. …

  23. I can’t say enough about the doctors in this office!!! They care about you, they are so knowledgeable and they don’t keep you waiting in the waiting room!! You need a dermatologist this is 100% the place to go.

  24. Physicians are generally good — the one I am seeing now is dealing with a chronic condition that I have and he listens to my complaints and reactions to medications. One of their doctors didn’t really pay attention to what I was telling …

  25. Great service quick as well. My visit was a follow up, which ended up being good, positive news, along with a great explanation of the reason for the biopsy.

  26. I Just got off the phone with the rudest and most condescending scheduler I have ever spoken to in my life. I don’t know what is going on in her personal life, but it was very obvious that she was taking her anger and aggression out on me. …

  27. The staff is professional and courteous. Minus one star because I filled out a whole bunch of paperwork online that doesn’t synchronize with the practices actual systems, and all had to be manually re-typed by the staff. Folks need to budget the expense to integrate their systems. Otherwise it’s an irritating experience.

  28. I have been a patient in this practice for 9 years and have always received superior care with an excellent nursing staff and friendly greeting at the reception desk. If I have needed to leave a message on the nurses line, a call back is always guaranteed by the end of the day.

  29. It’s easy for me to give Advanced DermCare 5 stars. I have been a patient there for 20+ years undergoing various treatments. Dr. Grace Federman has been my primary doctor, although I have also seen Dr. Clairwood.a few times. My kids saw …

  30. I have been going to Advanced DermCare for over 10 years. I love the staff and doctors. Even post Covid they are great and handle everything like clock work, making me feel very comfortable.

  31. Although I have never booked an appointment online at Advanced DermCare, I would highly recommend it. Almost every time I call to make an appointment, I am greeted with absolutely no enthusiasm and made to feel like I am a bother to the …

  32. The red head secretary definitely makes my day better! Super friendly and accommodating 😁 the nursing staff has also always been fantastic! They try to work around my schedule when ever they can, I really appreciate it! …

  33. The office’s reception procedures are just terrific. The staff from receptionist to nurses to doctors are all around wonderful. I give my highest recommendation to Dr. Zion and staff.

  34. I can say that my whole family has been to Advanced Dermcare and we have all been treated professionally and compassionately. My husband went in to see a doctor for a very unusual rash. It wasn’t long before we had 3 docs in the room …

  35. Dr Jacobson is excellent… having Mohs surgery on your face is stressful and upsetting. He was relaxed, sensitive and patient which made the process so much easier. I would highly reccomend him and his entire team!

  36. I had a very good experience with Dr Lipper.
    The Covid procedure was right on target.the office room where I met Dr Lipper was super clean. The staff were so friendly and welcoming Dr Lipper was great . …

  37. I saw Jillian Philbin for the first time after requesting an appointment for suddenly onset rosacea. She noticed that I also had acne, which I have struggled with on & off since middle school, & decided to address it even though I was …

  38. Advanced Dermcare care is truly amazing place top notch service as soon as you come through the door. Everyone is very nice and professional, waiting room is beautiful and Dr. Federman is Wonderful Best Dermatologist in Danbury highly recommended this practice!

  39. Everything went smoothly from check-in to check-out. I had an appointment with Nicole Strand, APRN, NP-C who was amazing. Very knowledgeable and answered my questions to the fullest. Feeling confident under her care.

  40. My daughter began seeing a dermatologist 3 years ago in this Danbury office. The staff and Dr Goldberg are professional.
    I am a working mother, and my daughter gets treated in the office 2-3 times a …

  41. Dr. Zirn, Dr. Jacobson and their team of nurses and technicians were absolutely wonderful. They took such terrific care of my mother, that when Dr. Jacobson called the night after her surgery to see how she was, she burst into tears. I’m …

  42. I have been going to Dr. Zirn for many years and have never had a bad experience with him or any of the nurses. My frustration lies in the front office staff. Each year I can expect the same cold greeting like I am putting them out. I …

  43. Dr. Federman is a wonderful dermatologist! She’s very thorough and is such a kind and considerate person! The staff at Advanced DermCare is very efficient and caring.

  44. I saw Dr. Gohara for the first time on 10/3/18 and had a skin biopsy performed. I received my invoice yesterday…but NO ONE has ever called me to discuss my biopsy results. Great service…I really appreciate having to wait almost 1 month …

  45. First time at the Danbury office and WOW. So impressed with their covid policies. I have been to SO many doctors during the pandemic (had a baby this summer) and they are way above par with how they are operating. Saw Nicole, she was so great. Would definitely recommend 🙂

  46. Waited 45 minutes for a scheduled full body scan (to be done by a technician, not a doctor) before telling the receptionists that I will be going somewhere else where they actually respect my time.

  47. My family and I have been patients of Advanced DermCare for years. All of the providers are so thorough, gentle and sensitive to our skin concerns-which can sometimes be embarrassing to reveal to a dermatologist. My two children are …

  48. Everything exceeded my expectations from the appointment set up online to the actual appointment with Dr Zirn . He was able to help me with a painful issue in one appointment. He immediately made me feel at ease and I’m grateful for his patience and kindness.

  49. Staff was so courteous and professional .
    Dr Philbin was top notch friendly, informative and caring. All COVID precautions were taken by all to upmost scale. I felt safe and very comfortable with …

  50. Amazing doctors and nurses. The doctors know their stuff. They test what they need to, and don’t seem to order unnecessary tests. They are aware of this crazy insurance world we live in and help to get prescriptions at the best price. The nurses spend time making sure you understood the treatment plan. It’s always a great visit!

  51. The facility is really clean and organized, the staff is friendly and sincere and my visit with Dr. Lowe was quick and efficient! She listened to my concerns and addressed them thoroughly and empathetically. Super fortunate to have them as a provider in Danbury.

  52. Compassionate, & professional. Had skin cancer taken off face. Dr.Jacobson & his assistant were wonderful. Would highly recommend Advanced DermCare. Everyone from checking in to checking out of office treated me with care.
    Larry G.

  53. Can’t say enough nice things about Dr Lowe and all the staff ! From the minute you walk in the door they are all so kind and courteous! Dr Lowe takes her time and explains things so thoroughly . Highly recommend

  54. Long wait for an appointment, but called and got a cancellation for a Saturday visit two days after first call for scheduling. The two nurses and PA that took care of me were awesome! Was in and out in less than an hour with two small …

  55. I’ve been going to Dr. Grace Federman for years. She is so bright, professional, and up to date on all the newest medical information. I brought my two daughters to her and now my grandsons are going to her. The best dermatology practice in the area. Thank you Dr. Federman for your years of care.

  56. Might be fine doctors, but you’d never know because the office staff is so bad. Confirmed appointment, showed up early, followed procedures – never got to see doctor because they messed up. No apologies – they assumed I’d made a mistake – and even when it became clear I hadn’t, just an attitude.

  57. I went to get a mole removed by Dr. Jacobson. He performed Mohs surgery on my face 2 years ago as well. I received excellent care by him and the nurses both times. However, he went above and beyond yesterday. My 95 year old mom fell and …

  58. I appreciated the great care they took to keep all of their clients safe. I had a great visit with Dr. Lipper and appreciated the professional way everything was conducted. Everyone, including the office staff, was very friendly and went to great lengths to make me feel comfortable.

  59. Nichole is very knowledgeable, remembers my history, always has a plan, and progresses very carefully. I’m very confident in her care and she is extremely sweet. Stephanie was also very knowledgeable and remembered my history which is …

  60. My appointment with Jillian Philbin was outstanding! She was patient, answered all my questions and did a quite extensive exam. She did not rush the process and explained all that she found. She is an asset to the practice!

  61. Súper people at Advanced Derm Care. Attended to all of my needs, very thorough and Jillian answered all of my questions. The medications that were prescribed were immediately sent to the pharmacy. All in all, a great experience!!

  62. Dr. Jacobson was very professional and explained the procedure carefully and well so I knew what to expect. His assistants, Jenna and ?, were thorough with preparation and during the procedure, as well as applying dressing after each iteration of the procedure. I felt that I was treated as a person by the entire team.

  63. Was a patient there for 30 years and have always been fine with their service but there administration and policies have been going downhill recently and the last time I called to set up a check up with my doctor I was told my doctor …

  64. Took about 4 months to get an appointment. Finally got one and service was very quick and rushed. They suggested a RX but they forgot to fill it. Tried to call but it was “during their lunch hour,” No way to leave a message. Lunch hour?? What is this, France?

  65. I have been going to Advanced DermCare for many years as needed. They are all professional and kind. They are always available when needing an appt. The APRN I see recommended a medicine for a difficult condition I have had about 20 years …

  66. I was warmly greeted at the door and my temperature was taken. I had a short wait in a well social-distanced waiting room (with a virus killer machine!). The receptionist was very kind and efficient. The waiting room was very clean. …

  67. My experience was exceptional! I was met by Tori who was kind and asked me to sit where I was comfortable (amazing). She listened intently and patiently and reassured me I was in the right place. Once Dr. Lipper walked in I was completely …

  68. Dr Federman was excellent, she took time to explain my skin condition and what I had been suffering with for over a month was gone with 1 injection. She was polite and I didn’t have to wait long to see her. I definitely will come back for …

  69. I had Mohs surgery twice with Dr. Jacobson and he and his nurses were exceptional in their expertise and clinical care. Dr. Jacobson even made time to call me in the evenings to see how I was. The facility is excellent and the staff are patient and nice. I highly recommend Advanced Derm Care.

  70. Advanced DermCare was fantastic. Dr Alyssa Miceli was so sweet to my daughter. She knew exactly what the spot on her knee was from and I left with so much relief!! Will definitely be using dermcare forever!

  71. I just want to thank Dr Lipper. Not only did he help my daughter with her molluscum, he helped my husband when he had a vasal vagal reaction to the procedure. Thank you and the nurse for helping the both of them in that moment as my …

  72. From the moment I arrived, the staff was courteous and friendly. I arrived for my appointment five minutes early and was taken in a few minutes! They are quick and efficient and sensitive to your needs. The examination was thorough and I …

  73. The staff at Advanced DermCare has always been top-notch. My family has been patients of this practice for about 20 years and we’ve always been treated kindly & professionally.

  74. I am very comfortable with the care at Advanced DermCare. Nicole has been a very good communicator plus she is easy to be with up close. I hear results of biopsies in a week or so. Surgery staff is also excellent. Twice I’ve had removal of basal cell cancer on my face with great results. I highly recommend this group.

  75. I have been going to advanced dermcare probably for about 50 years. My physician at the time was Dr. Federman who everyone knows is the most awesome doctor ever. She is now semi retired (and well deserved) but the team there is always so …

  76. I developed a rash on my chest . It itched and hurt . I called advanced care , and received an appointment within 24 hours . Arriving at the doctors office , I was greeted friendly and was taking into the office to see the doctor moments …

  77. Very impressed with the office visit with Erin Lowe who I had never seen before. She is an excellent dermatologist and I look forward to seeing her as a follow-up in a month. She had great suggestion to solve my issues. She is just an …

  78. I had a great experience at Advanced Dermcare yesterday. Although I had gone for something very simple I was in and out of there in 10 minutes and couldn’t believe how efficient everything was, I was confident I made the right decision to …

  79. I recently relocated to the Danbury area and needed to see a dermatologist for a potential infection situation. This practice squeezed me in and I saw a doctor within 2 days. Dr. and staff were welcoming & pleasant, took the action …

  80. I love this place, it’s hard for me to get away to make a phone call at work and all I have to do is send a text and the staff gets right back to me. Very convenient, and the receptionists are very friendly. Nursing staff is also very …

  81. Wonderful practice. Got me in same day for a terrible rash. Dr Lowe was so nice, explained everything very clearly.
    So satisfied with everyone there, thank you!!

  82. I used to see Dr. Federman for over 15 years. My insurance changed and I was unable to see her for a couple years. Called for an appointment and they refused to see me. Office staff is often rude and things are very rushed. There is very little care or concern for patients here and they seem to just care about making money.

  83. My wife has been a patient here for several years and has been completely satisfied. On her recommendation I came here for an issue. The environment is quite pleasant, the staff courteous, they were punctual and efficient, treatment was rendered promptly, questions were all answered. I was completely satisfied.

  84. My whole family goes to Advanced Dermcare. We have all different doctors-they are all great! Dr. Lau is wonderful! Expert, caring and professional! Excellent diagnostician! Dr. Jacobson did an incredible job with my 87 year old mom with …

  85. Dr. Jacobson is a highly skilled, empathetic, caring physician. I can’t say enough about him! He truly cares about his patients… He even called me at home the night of my surgery to make sure I was OK. He is also a great teacher! I highly …

  86. This office is so well run! On time appointments and the front desk could not be more helpful. They went above and beyond to help me with a referral that wasn’t sent by my primary. …

  87. I adore this practice. I have seen all the Dr.’s and they are completely thorough, informative and reassuring. No matter how “urgent” I feel my issue is, they are always completely thorough and reassure me that no matter what, if I think …

  88. Every touchpoint from scheduling, to reception and the nurses and Doctor I’ve interacted with have been incredibly professional, kind and informative at this practice. I’ve seen Dr. Lowe a couple of times now and each visit she’s been …

  89. Very accommodating staff and physicians! WW have been going to this practice for over 30 years. I arrived on the wrong day and they checked with the physician and I was able to be seen. While waiting another patient arrived 30 minutes late …

  90. Tried to make an appointment to investigate a potentially cancerous lesion and address a new facial scar and was told it would take two months to see me. Not a great start for a practice with multiple physicians. We’ll see how the care measured up to the inordinately long wait time.

  91. The doctor was running late due to an emergency. The staff was very considerate, apologized and let me know about the delay. When I saw Dr. Federman, even though she was running late, she did not rush me and took her time tending to my needs.

  92. Dr Grace Federman is very knowledgeable and professional. She listens to all of your concerns and addresses them. She took her time answering my several questions and helped me solve my issues. She’s my favorite doctor and a lovely person

  93. How nice for them that they can close at lunch time – not answer phones or help patients. Basically an extension of their overall lack of focus on service. An arrogant practice attitude.

  94. Friendly front desk staff and excellent provider service. I’ve had terrible experience with Dermatology Associates in the past, and this practice is far superior and treats their patients professionally and with compassion.

  95. If you’d like to be validated, treated with respect, dignity, a little humor…this is your place. The Dr’s are amazing! Dr. Jillian…too much positivity to write about in this review. Dr. Federman, Dr. Lipper, all amazing!! I highly recommend.

  96. 22 years and counting.. i absolutely love advance DermCare!!!! I have had so many different procedures, consultations and yearly body checks ( in between visits too) my husband is a patient and my grown children too!!

  97. First time here and I loved Dr Miceli. She was so patient and knew my issue. I am going back to her again for full check on my skin. I would definitely recommend her as I was recommended by a friend to come here.

  98. Dr Lowe is Awesome!! She is so caring and always helpful with any questions and always gives great advice. She is a Great DR would definitely recommend!! So happy she is my Dr

  99. Advanced DermCare is fantastic. From the staff at the front desk, to the nurses and doctors, everyone is helpful and friendly. I’ve been going to 2 years and Dr. Erin Lowe has been on point each visit, knowledgeable and friendly. I always recommend Advanced DermCare.

  100. Excellent physician dealing with my multiple problems. Professional, very up to date, patient and kind. The staff is very helpful and friendly . I love the app they use for communication. Dr. Miceli will bring me back time and time again.

  101. Excellent practice! Everybody is cordial. The doctors are super professional and understanding. Had a procedure on my forehead that needed stitches, and there is zero scar. I was amazed. I’m a patient for more that 10yrs.

  102. Doctor Federman is great! Have been seeing her for the past 20 years. She is very meticulous each time I visit. You never feel a thing when she does a biopsy or removal of any kind. A very pleasant personality!

  103. Best experience from making an appointment to leaving my second appointment. The medical assistants, secretaries, and Klara the app make it all so easy and pleasant. …

  104. The office front desk administrators are kind, the nurses are knowledgeable and make you feel comfortable, the doctors are thorough and inform you of everything they see and do, and the checkout staff are friendly and helpful. My appointment is on time and the office is clean. It’s always a pleasant experience.

  105. I can’t recommend this practice enough. All of the doctors and nurses I have encountered have been so kind and comforting. I feel my privacy is truly respected by all. The office staff are on top of it as well. It’s run so smoothly and …
