The Dermatology Specialists - Crown Heights

I know a scam when I see one, and this dermatologist’s office is exactly that. My insurance requires a $60 copay, which I paid. Before I was about to be seen, I sat down with the intake staff member who asked what brought me in. I explained that I had multiple concerns. He then told me I could only discuss a maximum of two issues. I questioned why that would be the case, especially since I just paid a $60 copay and had several legitimate concerns that needed to be addressed. He then relayed this to the physician assistant, not even a dermatologist, who said she would “do the best she could” and mentioned that I could bring up three issues. At no point on Zocdoc does it state there is a limit on how many concerns can be discussed during an appointment. It only suggests making a list of questions you have . This feels like a waste of patients’ time and money, and a tactic to force people to book multiple visits and pay additional copays. I’m not coming back to pay another $60 for issues that should have been addressed in one visit. This is unacceptable and incredibly frustrating. I DO NOT RECOMMEND

Making an appointment for the same day was swift and easy. The check-in process was also easy upon arrival. You have the option of booking and checking in online. My only complaint is that they don't give an after visit report that you can take to your primary care physician or a direct copy of the prescription for the pharmacy. I had to call about the prescriptions and found out that they only put 1 of the 2 prescriptions that the doctor told me about in my chart. If I hadn't called to check on them I would only have half of the medicine I was prescribed.
