The office ambiance is exceptional! Since I am a musician, I really enjoyed the soothing, classical music playing softly in the background. The fresh flowers also add a nice touch. I was extremely impressed by the cleanliness of the facilities and the professional and thorough treatment I received by Dr. Ringpfeil. The technological efficiency of the office was also very impressive!

Very professional and thorough.

The staff was very friendly, helpful and professional. The doctor herself is a pro, I was very impressed and will definitely recommend her to others, especially of my race. Its very hard to find a good dermatologist and I believe she is wonderful and really knows what she's doing. I am glad that I came here, thank you.

Dr. Ringpfiel was very attentive; she explained very clearly different treatments and their outcomes and gave me some alternatives I could choose from. I was extremely pleased by the Dr's professionalism, excellence, kindness and attention. Definitely one of the best services I have received! I am bringing my son in 3 weeks!

What can we do better?

(answers:373)

Maybe directions as "across from the Lexus place." Have the assistant say there may be a name recall test later, as she introduces herself.

#12010-12-07 10:07:04

Hard to say, this was a short visit and the service and treatment, as far as I can tell, were excellent

#22025-12-10

don't see how you could improve anything

#62025-08-13

Keep me informed of specials on products that might be good for my skin.

#72011-01-05 16:01:31

Medical newsletters or updates are helpful and informative. If it is advisable to have an annual mole check, for example, friendly reminders are always appreciated.

#82025-07-01

?water cooler in the waiting room?

#92025-04-06

I am completely satisfied with the current level of service and really can't think of anything that you could improve upon. This survey is a good thing.
