Advanced Dermatology Associates

Awful. Scheduled non-​emergency routine treatment by a non doctor. Showed up 10 minutes early for a 10:00 AM appointment. Still waiting at 10:20 and left. No telling how long they would have kept me waiting

My very first appointment was today at 8:20am. No issues with the paperwork. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Prompt service, was out by 8:30am. Thanks for a wonderful experience!

I never write these reviews… but my visit to the dermatologist was amazing! Everyone I met was friendly and very professional. Dr Purcell was very busy but made me feel important. He told me what he was going to do and then wasted no time in the procedure. It was only a minor issue but I feel much better now that it was taken care of. Thanks to all the people at Advanced Dermatology… they’re the best!

I love going to the dermatologist… is that weird? Staff is friendly and helpful, my insurance covers most of the cost and I’ve had to pay very little for visits. They work easily with me if I have a concern or want to stop/​start a product or treatment. The Cedar Crest Blvd location has the Skin Revitalization Center that offers aesthetic services. I have been encouraged to get a few peels but haven’t taken the plunge yet– my skin is rendered sensitive from retinoids, and these services are out-​of-​pocket. I’ve been going since 2012 and the treatments I’m prescribed have had great results. I had always tried my hardest to take great care of my skin, and I learned a lot of valuable information from this office. Although my skin isn’t 100% acne free (more like 92%, minor) it’s beautiful nonetheless and Advanced Dermatology has helped me gain confidence.

As one reviewer mentioned, this a LARGE practice. I’ve actually never been to an office this large and this busy. Tampa, Dallas, Los Angeles, Las Vegas… never been to one this large.
Front desk was nice. Holly, the tech that brought me to the room was nice. PA that I had an appointment with was ok. She seemed nice enough but definitely seemed rushed. She did take time with me but it was clear by her body language that she was thinking about her next 8 appointments. I was only there for my annual full body check so it didn’t bother me too much.
They were a half an hour late taking me back. I waited in the room another 15 minutes. Total office visit took an hour.
I will go back. Just not blown away by my first visit.
Someone else mentioned they do have a side business, as most derms do now. Lasers, facials, etc.

excellent services, had some laser work done on my face to remove age spots/​cosmetic surgery. Asked dr. to perform testing on 1^st appt to make sure okay to proceed further (since risk of white spots on laser removal for those with olive complexion). on 2^nd appt received additional removals on face and follow up was excellent,
only issue is setting up appt. Need to be very well planned and to do procedure in winter with minimum exposure to sunlight

I just left their office after waiting way to long to be seen. I arrived early, paid all fees and checked all medical info as usual. «You will be seen shortly» is an out and out lie.
I have never been seen on time and this was the worst. Took my copay back and left.
While I was sitting in the waiting room other patients were also waiting, One «nurse»?
came into the room and called a ladies name. The patient got up and the nurse said I called you three times. Well, she apparently called for the patient from around the corner because no one had heard the first two calls. You would think they would make some attempt to be more professional. When I left I could see the staff just standing around down the corridor.
I had been to this office a few times and had to have minor surgery done at their Cedar Crest Bldg. Had to return to have stitches removed from my eye lid. One week later I had to remove the remaining stitches my self as the nurse had missed a few and the eye was not healing properly.
It’s too bad this is the only way to impact this outfit. They do appear to be in business for the bucks, not the patient.
Will never go back and will advise anyone I care about to find another group.

I’ve suffered with acne for years, when I moved to Baltimore I finally found a Dr & treatment that worked for me. When I moved to Allentown I went to this office, the Dr refused to continue the treatment that worked so well for me in Baltimore because I was not on a birth control pill and the drug I wanted was known to cause birth defects. After I assured him there was no way I would be getting pregnant he still refused to give me the prescription. I don’t think it is a Dermatologists business what my birth control choice is, maybe I’m a lesbian, maybe my husband had a vasectomy or maybe I’m a celibate nun. The treatment option he offered was wash your face 3x a day with glycerin soap and lotion with a non-​comodegenic lotion. Something that I was already doing and have always done because it was what I was told to do at my very first Derm appointment when I was a teenager. I called back to make a 2^nd appointment since there were not many derm option available and asked for a different Dr. They not only gave me the same Dr, but they told him I asked for someone else and he questioned me on it. How unprofessional can you get?!

I just had the Eco2 laser treatment and my results are fabulous. Everyone was so nice and professional!

Its a large clinic with many options :) besides the wonderful doctors doctors, very professional.
They have a side business also doing facials, lazer treatments etc.
