“Always caring and competent staff in all aspects”
Dr. Joel Schlessinger and his staff at Lovely Skin have been excellent in caring for our family from our sons' teenage acne prone years and our adult issues with growths and sun damage issues.
The staff is kind, caring and competent from the moment one calls through the entire examination, treatement, and ongoing visit process.
Always pleasant, always careful to draw out all questions and concerns, and always great technique.

Comment - “ Professional and Personal Experience ”
Dr. Schlessinger and his office is one of the most efficient and caring office I've ever experienced. Appointment times are always observed promptly. Once in the examination room, I was respectfully taken care of quickly and with professional help. The staff is personable, prompt, and knowledgeable. I didn't find myself waiting or being ignored for long periods of time. The staff truly cares about my comfort, concerns, and understanding the procedures.
