Seff Daniel B DO

Great guy, a dr with a sense of humor. I didn't have insurance (I know, Barack would be upset) and the price was a fraction of what I thought it would be. I
Highly recommend him. Short wait as well!

I visited this dermatologist's office today after requesting an initial visit as a new patient.

My phone call to set up the appointment was pretty quick--they just asked my name, insurance, and phone number. Really no other information was given which struck me as unusual compared to my other intake calls with different practitioners.

When I arrived early for my appointment (which was one of the earliest available in the morning) I filled out very brief paperwork and sat and waited to be seen. My appointment time came and went and I was finally ushered back to a room where an assistant asked a few more questions (why was I here, any family history of ____, etc.) and then I waited some more. I was surprised things were already seeming to run late even though it was still before 9 am.

Half an hour after my actual appointment time, the doctor came in, said hello, asked why I was there, did an incredibly brief check of my arms and back--nowhere else-- and updated a prescription at my request (without probing for more information about the condition necessitating the prescription). The doctor was nice enough but I left feeling like I had not had a particularly thorough screening and there were no recommendations for future behaviors/products other than "be checked fairly regularly."

The office staff were not particularly friendly, barely glancing at me when handling paperwork or payments; no smiles, no "how are you today?" and so on. I guess maybe I'm just used to other, friendlier office staff, but I didn't feel welcomed as a new patient here.

Bottom line: My visit was brief and baseline. Previous dermatologist visits in other states involved thorough discussions of my family history with the derm, recommendations for skincare and sunscreen products based on my history and activity level, and careful skin checks all over my body. I really did not receive that here.

I would like a practice with more thorough skin checks, prompt service, and friendly staff. I'll be visiting another dermatologist in the future.

I like to go to dr. Seff. He knows his stuff it is very kind. He helps me for my psoriasis and eczema and his also removed moles and tags from my body. He is very up-to-date in his career and what he does for you. His office staff are very nice also.

The staff was pleasant and helpful. The doctor was very close to being on time for my appointment and was very professional. He answered all my questions and I did not feel rushed.
Would recommend him to anyone.
