Laila Almeida's Online Review Report Card

Dr Almeida is kind but she is always rushed. She barely spends five minutes with me and then she is halfway out the door when I was asking questions. Very condescending as well.

I have been going to Dr. Almeida for decades. She is attentive, professional, understanding and most importantly a very skilled dermatologist. She takes the time to hear all of your concerns and addresses them. Thank you Dr. Almeida for all of your good care, I appreciate having a physician like you.

Dr. Almeida is amazing. She is probably my favorite physician. I went through several skin cancer scares and she got me through all of them. She is very thorough but still kind and caring. I highly recommend her. She also cured my son's acne which was quite severe and he has a perfectly clear complexion now.

Dr. Almeida always addresses any issues that my family members or I may have. She is professional and efficient.

For me she has been excellent, just by looking at my face she knew I had pre-cancerous spots, she immediately treated them there on the first appointment and she has done so both times I have gone. My husband was also found to have a cancerous mole which he then sent to a surgical specialist for removal. She is very professional.

My mom came here truly concerned about her skin on her hands and feet. I figured a dermatologist should be consulted since the areas were severely cracking even with moisturizer on and causing pain. Talk about bedside manner. Some empathy even if you didn’t have any solution to offer would’ve been nice. I paid $50 copay to hear that I should put “crazy glue” on the cracks of my hands and feet. This was with Dr Almeida. Truly brought me to tears that crazy glue seriously was my solution and I leave a specialists office truly looking for help just to be told to do what I was already doing and pay $50 on top. I was told to follow up after two weeks of Vaseline on the skin which I was already doing. Why would I do a follow up again with this doctor who couldn’t advise more than crazy glue the first time. I did ask if she was joking and nope she was being serious. Also, she said she had too many patients and couldn’t wait for me to remove the nail polish as she preferred. So that’s great, don’t do a thorough exam and do give me a few more minutes even though I waited weeks for this appointment. Healthcare is saddening in 2022. This is not the first time and it’s hard to find a gem of physician that cares more about their patients than their room turnover time. Won’t be coming back to see Dr Almeida

Always very rushed. Appointments are scheduled every ten minutes and you barely get ten minutes even for a full body check.

Each year I see Dr. Almeida I feel that she is rushing me, or that I am taking up too much of her time. She literally spends only seconds looking my skin over. I mentioned a skin tag to her and she said I could have it removed and she continued the exam. Then she ends the exam, and says, "Oh doesn't seem like you want it removed today. You can always come back" and she leaves hurriedly.

Horrible staff, very rude.

She was very professional and I appreciated her candor. The doctor listened to my concerns. I will be returning soon.
