"Dr. Magid is efficient, professional and knowledgeable. He takes the time to discuss treatment options and thoughtfully considers questions. I would highly recommend him. The only drawback is that he is typically very busy and booked many weeks in the future."

— Healthgrades review for Dr. Morgan Magid

"My husband and I have both visited Dr Calciano regularly for years. We both agree he's the most thoughtful, attentive, conscious and skilled dermatologist out there!"

— Healthgrades review for Dr. Andrew Calciano

"Very nice doctor and competent. I had to wait 3 months for an appointment. She was supposed to map my moles but did a superficial job. I think I saw her for about 7 minutes of my 45 minute appointment."
