"Believe the reviews where obtaining office staff for scheduling is an exercise in great patience. No return calls, long hold times, don't expect a voicemail to be returned."
— Yelp user review"Dr. Firoz is an extraordinary dermatologist. I have also had a very good experience with Brown Physician Assistant... These two medical professionals deserve five stars. The only reason I took away a star... is that the office staff tends to be brusque and unhelpful."
