Michael Castro. MD

Great doctor, very friendly. Prescribed me the medications I needed. Would highly recommend. Staff operate in a strenuous environment and do a great job.

At last I’m taking a little time to share my wonderful experience with Dr. Michael Castro. From my first visit with him over 3 years ago to have a small cyst removed from the hairline above my left eyebrow through the last few years and as recent as a month ago, I've always rcvd great care from him. Dr. Castro has always been patient when I asked him sooo many questions about the reasons for my visit. His answers are easy to understand. Bottom line, he has always been impeccable helpful. Using a food analogy, because of her genuine helpfulness also, his assistant, Sonya, is like *frosting on a great cake* because her service is perfect! e.g. she takes all the time necessary to answer my phone-based questions. Because of my own experience w/ Dr. Castro, I’m shocked to see the ‘#1’ reviews here on Yelp. If you need to see a dermatologist and want excellent service, I wholeheartedly recommend you choose Dr. Castro because, from my experience, I know you’ll be glad you did!

This review is for Michael Castro. I've been to visit him 3 times now. The first time was for what he diagnosed as eczema. It was a very short wait to be shown to the examination room, as well as a short wait before he knocked on the door and walked in. He came in and asked what I was there for, I pointed at a place on my arm and he just went, oh - that's eczema, I'll prescribe you a foam for that. I thought he was a little hasty with his diagnosis, but I went home and used the cream and it cleared right up. A few years later I went back for the same thing and he said, aren't you using the foam I prescribed you, and I said yes, but I need some more. My most recent visit I arrived 10 minutes early. It had been a few years since the eczema issues. I sat down and within a few minutes I was shown to an exam room. Within minutes Michael came in, and his first question was how is the rash doing. Clearly he had read my file before coming in. I showed him a few warts I had and he had come in carrying the freeze can needed to treat warts. I said, wow - you already have the tools, and he said yup, I do a lot of freezing. After that I had him do a full check of my body for any irregularities and then I was on my way home. As I was walking to my car I looked at my watch and it was 12 minutes past my appointment time. WOW, most of the time with other doctors I would still be sitting in the waiting room 12 minutes past my appointment time. Thank you Michael, you are doing a great job and you seem to be direct and to the point about your diagnosis and treatments.

He is pretty cool. Everything I was worried about he assisted with and even if it took two or three times to solve the issue he didn’t seem phased and he was always in a positive mood. Thanks for the help!!!

Great staff really great dr. Funny nice and knowes his medicine.

Such a nice guy, my problem was hard to treat but he didn't give up on me. He had to try a couple of different methods to completely cure my various conditions and was patient thru the whole process. Staff was kind and courteous.

Dr. Castro is professional, thorough, very helpful ; the best dermstologistI'vr evet had! He has changed my skin; he is so knowledgeable.

Dr. Castro is a really great doctor. He did ask a lot of questions but he was patient with me when I tried answering. I had a pretty difficult treatment program and had to follow up a few times, but he was great at every visit.

Best derm ever, really knows his stuff. Fully explains all treatment options in a friendly yet professional way. My only complaint is he talks a little too quickly sometimes, and sometimes hits you with rapid-fire questioning. Still, a very nice guy, and you get the feeling he actually cares.
