DON'T GO THERE, SAVE YOUR MONEY AND TIME!!
Don't go to this place! I got a 9am appointment and ended up leaving the place at around 12:45pm, after the doctor saw me for about 5 minutes and prescribed highly expensive prescriptions instead of similar ones with generic equivalents.
The service is bad and they rip you off, especially if you have private insurance. They do a serious of procedures without warning the patient about the exorbitant fees they carry with them. The doctor I saw, Savitz, sees client at a rate of 20 per hour or perhaps more. He sees you, gives you prescriptions, injects you and gives youa little cottom pad, and sends you home. He also rarely mention the side effects of the the medicines he prescribed. Then you get a bill charging hundreds of dollars for injections, surgery (the cottom pad and the alcohol), and other things. To him, everything is safe. For instance, he told me Accutane is very safe and it's only side effect is "dry lips."
If you have Blue Shield / Blue Cross or any other Federal plan, don't go there, and save yourself hundreds of dollars and from having to deal with rude office assistants.

POOR SERVICE
Just left Fordham Dermatology after walking out. My appointment was at 2:30. I got there at about 2:25. When I got there, there was only one person waiting. I signed in, which all the names before mine were scratched out so I assumed I should be next. The receptionist asked if I was self-pay and I told her yes. A few people came in after me and they saw a doctor before me. At 3:10 I asked the receptionist if a doctor could see me soon. She simply said "I think there is someone in all three of the rooms". That isn't what I asked her but okay.
By 3:25 I was fuming because no one explained to me what the hold up was and no one assured me that someone was coming or even apologized for the long wait. So I got up and left. I understand that the appointment time they give you is often not the actual time you will see someone, but an hour wait is unreasonable. Especially on a Friday afternoon. I will just find another dermatologist that can plan his/her appointments better rather than overbooking. Read more at newyork.citysearch.com Cons: LOOOOOOOOONG WAIT
