Patient Reviews

Efficient and extremely friendly practice.

Timely and great bedside manners

I’ve had an excellent experience with Upper West Side Dermatology. From the moment I arrived, everything felt efficient and well-run, they consistently saw me on time, which I really appreciate. The front desk and staff are always incredibly friendly and welcoming, creating a positive and comfortable atmosphere from start to finish. The care itself was outstanding. My exams were always thorough and comprehensive, and the doctors were not only highly knowledgeable but also genuinely courteous. Every question I had was answered thoughtfully and in detail, and I never once felt rushed during my appointments. It was clear that the doctors took the time to carefully assess my situation and arrive at the right diagnosis. Having been to several dermatology practices over the years, I can confidently say this one stands out as the best. I feel completely comfortable and well cared for here, and I plan to continue as a patient for all of my dermatology needs.

absolutely love seeing Dr. Shea! He’s so patient, attentive and reassuring. He really took his time making sure I understood everything. 10/10 recommending to all my friends in the city! great experience with the staff there as well!

I was nervous going in for a consultation for my frown lines between my eyebrows. Dr. Rothman was very kind, took the time to answer my questions as well as ask me questions, and clearly explained what the injections were and what I should expect. The whole process was quick and painless, which I really appreciated. The office itself was very clean and welcoming. The front desk was also wonderful, they were attentive and made sure I was checked in and out smoothly. I had a great experience at Upper West Side Dermatology! Highly recommended!

Dr Rothman is a kind, receptive, smart Dr. I highly recommend her!

I’ve been going to UWSD for years, they’ve helped me through everything from accutane to hair loss. When I recently decided to try Botox for my forehead, Dr. Cossman made the experience so easy. He was patient, knowledgeable, and took the time to answer all of my questions. I’m beyond happy with the results. they’re subtle, natural, and exactly what I was hoping for. I’d definitely recommend him to anyone interested in trying Botox, especially for the first time.

Dr. Cossman and Dr. Rothman provided excellent care. Highly recommended!

I’ve been going to Upper West Side Dermatology for about 5–6 years and have always had a great experience. The medical assistants are very attentive, and Dr. Yagerman is thorough and caring. The entire staff is consistently kind and helpful with any questions. I highly recommend this office.

I will be going to Dr. Shea for any and all future dermatological needs. Not only did he solve my problem, he did so in such an engaged, polite, professional, and attentive manner -- the sort of physician you pray is waiting for you at your appointment.

Dr.Rothman had same-day appointments available on ZocDoc even on a holiday, and this is not one of those places where you book it with a doctor and end up getting seen by a PA instead. I was seen by Dr.Rothman within 5 minutes of walking in, and she addressed all of my issues promptly! She has excellent bedside manner too. Amazing efficiency, cleanliness, staff and availability. All around perfect! So happy that I found a new dermatologist.

Dr. Shea answered all my questions thoroughly, is knowledgeable and has great bedside manner! Highly recommend. Will be going to him again. Front desk staff is very nice and professional

This my second visit for Cancer Screening. Danny was super friendly checking in on me before Dr Shea came in to conduct the cancer screening. Dr Shea was very attentive and conducted a thorough exam. Happy to hear I’m all good this year. Very satisfied with my visit.

Dr. Shea was prompt and super friendly during my first time visit here. It was the first time I didn't have to wait super long at a doctors appointment. Office was clean and easy to navigate.

Besides exceptional skill and attentiveness, what distinguishes Dr Lisa Travis is her dry humor and comforting manner. My condition required a thorough examination of almost all my skin. She immediately put me at ease, and her ongoing detailed assessment was not without its gentle, playful encouragement.

Appointment started on time. Doctor listens and addresses concerns. Fast, but thorough appointment.

I should've scheduled a visit with Dr. Asrani from the first visit! She took the time to explain my 6-month-old's skin condition and recommended ways to care for it. She even took off her coat because she said kids get nervous when they see doctors in it. Don't be like me, having to schedule 2 appointments when it can be all done in one!
