AWFUL, AWFUL, AWFUL. I waited for an hour, he barely addressed my skin issue yet proceeded to remove moles that my pcp had just told me were safe. NEVER EVER AGAIN.

You will wait an hour at least to get in to see Dr. K for 30 seconds that he gives you. The Father who works at the desk is satan in human form...don't say I didn't warn you.

Dr. Kararkashian is a rude doctor. He should be lucky to have the stuff he does. I see that they do everything and anything for him and i watched him with my own eyes yell at one of his girls and actully make her cry. i went in for an ance treatment. my face is still broken out and i've saw him for a while. If he was a good doctor then it would be worth waitin 1-2 hours but he is not. And he is always on his cell phone. one time he actully picked up his phone in the middle of talking to me. His father is another thing. Rude ... read more

Appts are overbooked; you will ALWAYS wait (up to 2.5 hrs) to be seen & will even have to sit on the floor in waiting rm. Staff is extremely unfriendly & unprofessional. Dr's parents run office & do not know what they're doing. Dr unnecessarily uses 'scare factor' & misdiagnoses in order to keep his patients & get more appts out of them. Office is not clean & very disorganized; exam rms are not unsanitary, reception desk is a disaster...patients' charts often misplaced, no computers used at this practice! Stay away!

So Dr. K is not informative at all. He does what he does when you go to see him and doesnt explain anything. His staff is rude and so is he sometimes. The receptionist are the worst. He is supposidly a great Dermatologist and knows his stuff. But you get treated like crap.

I laughed when I read the other reviews because I now know I'm not the only one feeling the way I do about Dr. K and his office. I sat on the floor a few appts ago for over an hour because I wasn't about to stand that long. You may not think it's a big thing not to have enough chairs, but wait 1 to 2 hours without a place to rest yourself and you may change your mind. No paper on exam table and no cleaning of vinyl surface between patients. Parents are horrendous and only give you the time of day if you're a "cash" patient -... read more

This is my opinion of Dr.K's office. The rudeness of his staff (father) was just overall terrible. The way the office was managed is also terrible, I sat there with my daughter for example, a 11am appointment, aftering muttering that 11am came and went aloud, another patient said, 'your appointment was for 11am?' so was mine! Then another patient said theirs was also for 11am. Needless to say we LEFT! As we had another appointment with a orthodontist. Also no chairs for patients to wait those ungodly hour(s) wait, people sto... read more

I had a very negative experience with Dr. K and who I am assuming to be a relative,the office manager and book keeper. I have an outstanding, relatively small bill of 410.00 from May of 06 which is currently under review by my insurance company. I offered to pay the bill so that I could have the mole (which had been removed and found to have contained abnormal cells) excised, but was told that I am not allowed to pay and was refused treatment until insurance pays or denies my claim. This means that as a doctor he is refusing... read more
