If you are looking for chit chat or social interaction go to Facebook. Dr. Mendelson has a straightforward approach and gets right down to business. I had a list of 5 ailments and one by one she accurately diagnosed and treated each of my concerns. The was one condition which no other Doctor including other dermatologists were able to diagnose. She recommended a water soluble ointment that I could use even without shaving my beard to treat the condition and it worked perfectly to eliminate the problem. Her staff is also friendly and helpful.
