I would give zero stars if I could. After waiting 30 mins in the lobby I was told my appt had to be either a skin cancer screening OR checking a spot I had a concern about. Ridiculous. The actual skin cancer screening took 5-10 mins tops. Why could she NOT check my other area of concern??? So they can bill more. Reception was nice. Assistant was curt. Dr was meh. While waiting I heard the assistant and doctor talk about a patient speaking very rudely. This place seems like it's a money pig bent on getting the wealthy in for ... read more

If you are trying to make an appointment with any of the Drs in this medical group good luck! I've left several messages on their voicemail because they never answer their phones, and even though the message says they'll call you back within 24 hours, they actually never return phone calls. I've been trying to make an appointment for both me and my daughter (we are both returning patients) and it seems like they're just not interested. I'll be taking my business to an office with better customer service.

Carol Rosenthal is absolutely the best! She always takes the time to ask about how my skin is doing and always does her utmost to be sure I get the results that I am looking for. I have been coming to Carol for at least 5 years to do dermasweep and other treatments on my face, however, there have been too many treatments to recall all the names of those treatments! I see other women my age and I can't believe the difference that these treatments have made! I am always telling friends and family about what miracles she has wo... read more

I was a patient of Monterey dematologist Dr. Gorelick for years. He retired. My treatments were simple and quick...freeze off a few skin spots that were from too much sun when young (worked farms/ranches in H.S. without skin protection). Excellent doctor. So? So I had a few skin areas on face and neck I wanted to have frozen (they use a liquid nitrogen spray bottle). I made appointment. Was seen pretty fast (within about 1 1/2 weeks)...good. My appointment was with Dr. Gordon...who was skilled, friendly, a good listene... read more

I had an absolutely amazing experience with Dr. Gordon. I came in to have what I thought was a cyst removed. I waited literally only 1 minute in the waiting room and then I was seen. I'm used to a 20 minute wait or more sometimes at other offices. He walked me through the procedure, made sure I was going to be comfortable, and then booked me for the surgery. I expected to have to wait a month or more for the procedure, but he booked me for the following week. Incredible! He was so experienced and sure of hand. I felt that he... read more

I was to have my first apointment with Christina Wahlgren at 3:40pm. I went early because traffic on #68 can be heavy at that time. When I arrived at 3:30pm and checked in, I was told that she had departed unexpectedly at 1pm....and did I receive a call to cancel? I replied no one had reached out. As I was driving home, I received a call (after my appointment) to let me know she was not available....terrific. They had my number because they sent me a text message requesting confirmation of my appointment 2 days earlier. It j... read more

This review is for Carol specifically. I used to have regular breakouts on my nose, forehead and cheek even, uneven pigmentation, some seasonal dermatitis .... Carol is basically awesome. She figured out what works for me, doesn't push products or treatments that you don't need, and genuinely listens to you. She helps my skin look as good as I feel inside.

I literally never write reviews but I need to share my experience to those those dealing with acne. I began to see Dr. Wahlgren in August 2016. I had tried it all at that point, so I was looking for professional help. I had no visible acne just scarring. She started with some facial topical treatments and ended up prescribing Accutane. 5 months after accutane, I still have scarring and ended up paying over $1,000 in billing because they were not accepting my Anthem Blue Cross insurance anymore. It turns out that anthem does ... read more

I was seen by Dr. Wahlgren several months ago to have two moles on my neck removed. I was very disappointed from the start of the appointment. I waited for about twenty minutes past my appointment time. Although, she did apologize for being late. I would have just left and scheduled another appointment somewhere else if she didn't. During that first appointment I remember Dr. Wahlgren mentioned to the nurse that there would need to be a follow up procedure/appointment after my mole removal. I thought that it was a little odd... read more
