In Vanguard Dermatology very unprofessional front desk staff. They send people to the doctor who came much later than you, and whose appointment is later, additionally they take people w/o order, i'm so disappointed. After I complained to the medical assistant, the mistake wasn't fix. They promised that the office manager would call me back, but it never happened.
The surgical procedure was performed with numerous violations of DOH rules, such as hand hygiene, use of personal protective equipment. The Doctor Shapiro, Michael did not explain about the consequences of the injection. Doctor did not provide any instruction in case of emergency if side effects can appear. What happened to me in the end.
Unable to get employee names. Very rude staff and doctor.
Don't risk your health, there are many good dermatologists in Brooklyn and New York, make the right choice.

The worst doctor experience ever. I had a 5:45AM appointment and ended up waiting for 2 hours to see a doctor for less than five minutes. The wait was not the worst problem. Doctor prescribed two medications, and there was a problem with on of them. After spending 4 days trying to resolve the issue I got no where, and was told that I have to wait an extra 5 days because the person who deals with prescriptions is not in the office.

make sure you check your insurance and eligibility before you come to the office, because apparently it's not a front desk job! Very unprofessional!

Dr. Shapiro may be a good doctor but his shceduling of patients is HORRIBLE. My first appointmentI was midafternoon and I had to wait almost 3 hours to see the doctor. Trying to avoid the long delays to see the doctor for follow up, I made a 7:30 AM apointment, the office opens at 7:00 AM, I got there about 7:20 AM, and was not taken into the examining room until 8:05 AM and did not actually see the doctor until 8:40 AM, an hour and ten minutes after my appointmen time at 7:30 AM. I was told by a staff person the way to beat the long wait is to get there before the office and wait on line to get in. TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE.
Their staff was not rude, but they didn't go out of their way to make me feel welcome. They were not friendly enough.Their equipment was current, nothing special though.There is no one I would recommend go to this provider.
