REVIEWS OF Dr. Joel Schlessinger IN Iowa

Adrian Dickinson

I love this spa! The facials are great and I walk out feeling younger. The esteticians are right on the money at recommending product. I like the atmosphere, the calm, the attention to detail and the products that they offer. I have never been more pleased with a facial.

Barry Branson

Short wait, very courteous, warm greeting. Everyone is very professional in the office. Staff is informative and attentive. Everyone wants to make sure things are clear and there are no questions or explanations needed. Dr. Schlessinger had second looks to verify everything was in order.

Kenny Tran

This place has terrible service and treats their patients like second class citizens. Does a poor job of listening and pushes medication on you that you don't want and completely disregards anything you have to say. Charged me $900 for 10 minutes of their time, rushed the procedure without any second guess if they done it right or not.

Alejandra Carreon

I’ve been Dr. Schlessinger’s patient for some time, and I wouldn’t change him. Every visit I feel welcomed and heard from start to end. Staff is super helpful and kind, and the doctor takes his time to answer my questions.

Martha

Dr. Schlessinger cares for his patients like his own family. He has ALWAYS provided peace of mind during my visits. My husband and I drive 7+ hours just to see the best dermatologist, Dr. Schlessinger. He and his staff have exceeded my expectations every time!

Sarah Pretz

I've seen the PA here and Dr. Schlessinger. Both are great. I have seen a different dermatologist in the past for my acne, tried several different treatments that all failed! I gave up on dermatologists because I didn't think there was a treatment that would work for me. I came to Dr. Schlessinger's office because I am a fan of their lovely skin store and they referred me to him. Let me tell you! My skin has not looked this great in years! I wish I would have come to get evaluated by them sooner. All the staff here are very friendly too. I love the nurses. They are very knowledgeable and spend extra time with you after the doctor leaves to make sure you understand everything the doctor discussed. I would recommend Dr. Schlessinger to anyone.

Kevin Slater

The doctors and staff are extremely friendly and do a great job of explaining every step of the process to you. They always make my visits very enjoyable.

Brett Kruse

I have been to Dr. Schlessinger a few times over the last couple years. I had been to a few dermatologists previously in my life, but now I only trust my skin care to Dr. Schlessinger and his staff. He is extremely knowledgeable, answers all my questions and I leave having full confidence in any treatments/recommendations. The staff and experience is top notch in my book.

Horrible treatment by staff. Never returning

Matthew Jarvis

Simply outstanding experience. The staff is very friendly, efficient, and highly professional. Dr. Schlessinger did a great job. He took his time to explain the procedure and answer all my questions. He did the least invasive procedure and the results are extremely satisfying. I will recommend the good doctor and his able staff to everyone I know.

kate hargreaves

No good for female hair loss - like most dermatologists. Very brief consultation and no answers, no diagnosis, no recommended regimen. Don't go there for female hair loss - save your money. I have yet to find a decent consultant for female pattern hair loss

Angela Northrop

I've never been treated so rudely and unprofessionally as I have with the staff at this office. They are ALL about the money. I received very poor treatment after seeking another doctor's opinion about an expensive procedure this office was recommending. I've spent a lot of money at this office only to find they were not interested in healing my skin infection, only interested in sucking every last dime out of me. And if you need your medical records so you can go see another doctor, be prepared to face more rudeness and a total lack of cooperation. I would never go to this doctor's office again and would warn anyone considering going, to ask around. I'm not the only one with this opinion, contrary to what has been posted / deleted from the internet.

Cyndy Unknown

Worst experience ever. They burned my skin during laser hair removal procedure and left me with a hyper pigmentation scar. I trusted this place based on the reviews I read and I regret going to this place for the treatment.

Jamie Smith

I've been here for fillers and Latisse. Dr. Schlesinger is excellent with fillers. He really does a fantastic job! Also, love the specials they have on occasion. Sometimes you can get two latisse for the price of one! I always jump on that deal! The whole staff has always been a pleasure to work with. I see reviews that mention how rude they were, but that's never been my experience.

Jesse J

I don't wright reviews but, I waited a long time to see Joel Sclessinger and I was very disappointed in the way he came in the room - spent two minutes looking at me and had no input on what a good protocol would be to help me. Made me pay upfront before I even got to see him, he never offered anything that could help me, his exact words were "well, I could put you on antibiotics but I don't think it would help". What kind of professional advice is that? I asked him what would help and he said "you don't look that bad". Please folks, look elsewhere if you want someone that actually wants to help you, I'd actually give this guy 0 stars...

Tyler Terry

Dr. Schlessinger and his team are truly first class. He not only has some of the most advanced technology in his office, but better yet provided me with the best experience possible. I'd refer any friend or family member to see Dr. Schlessinger because he's one of the most down to earth and knowledgeable doctors I've ever met.

Stefanie Teegarden

I have seen Dr.Schlessinger & his staff for several years. He has treated my Basal Cell skin cancer twice, using the MOHs procedure. While the procedure itself is a little invasive, it's done in-office and not until all questions and concerns are answered, from side-effects to post-op care! Due to the extent of my sun damage I see him semi-annually now for skin checks. He has also treated my acne as well as administered Botox, which by the way looks absolutely wonderful - I am 100% happy with the results! Excellent bedside manner, very thorough with both the exam and treatment options. Each & every time I have gone in for an appointment, his staff is very professional, from the nurses, to the front desk gals, not to mention the gals across the street at the Lovely Skin store, they are nothing short of courteous and most helpful. Two thumbs up!!!

Jessica Robinson

There is no better dermatologist than Dr. Schlessinger of Omaha! He has cured every skin issue I have ever had. There are other dermatologists practices in the Midwest and I have seen my fair share of them, but after I found Dr. Schlessinger 12 years ago I will never want another! This wonderful doctor and staff will take exceptional care of you each and every visit. Jackie is certainly one of my favorites of the elite staff. She provides me with exceptional service and my skin has never looked better. I highly recommend Dr. Schlessinger, his staff, and vast array of products. My two sisters and mother are now patients, too. We all adore Dr. Sclessinger and his whole line of skin care products. Another big bonus, you often receive free samples so you have a chance to try it before you buy it. Best doctor of dermatology there ever was!

Patty Peska

I called Dr. Schlessinger's office after a co-worker of mine identified a skin abnormality of mine that needed to be investigated. I was able to schedule an appointment very quickly and was extremely satisfied with my visit. The front staff were very welcoming, friendly, and efficient. When I was taken back to the exam room the nurse treated me with the utmost respect and dignity. Dr. Schlessinger was on time, thorough and he and his nurse Ashley made me feel like they had all the time in the world for all my questions. I felt very reassured when I left the office!! I highly recommend Dr. Schlessinger and his wonderful staff for any of your dermatology needs!!

missi yanke

My experiences have been wonderful. Kristin is very professional and easy to relate to and very concerned with "you". From the exposure I've had, it is nearly a familial relationship, not just another patient, number, or appointment. She remembers what we spoke of from the last visit or some connection point that helps you feel this way! Ashley H. is very open to feedback on the experience or how can anything be improved, nothing is off the table to share and remedy; should any dissatisfaction (reasonable) arise; perhaps, even the unreasonable. The environment is calming and the culture of the employees, whether just interacting with check-in, suggesting a product, getting you set for expectation, which translates to the consumer experience and ease of contact/service. Thank you!

Gail Sarchet

Dr. Schlessinger has performed two Moh's procedures on my face. I am grateful for the detection and removal of the cancers as well as the lack of any subsequent scarring. In addition to his surgical skills, I find Dr. Schlessinger personable and genuinely concerned about patient outcome. The entire staff at the clinic mirrors Dr. Schlessinger's interpersonal approach; they are friendly, respectful, caring, and efficient. In other words, they are professional! -Mike Sarchet

Holly Anderson

I had a 5 star experience with Dr. Schlessinger and staff. I called and explained what was going on with my daughter and they got her in as soon as they could. The staff was super nice and we got some answers and are on the road to recovery. THANK YOU!

Michelle Grossman

I have been a long time patient Dr. Schlessinger. He and his staff are professional, courteous, friendly and they all genuinely care for their patients. I really enjoy going to the office for my appointments. I highly recommend Dr. Schlessinger.

Denise Maryanski

Excellent care! After 14 months, 6 OTHER doctors, unneeded invasive testing, possible harmful injections and 6 wrong diagnosis of the cause of a rash on my arm I was blessed enough to seek help from Dr. Schlessinger. Within minutes he was able to make an accurate diagnosis and put me on the correct medication plan to success. I can't thank Dr. S and his amazing team enough for helping me. Totally professional and caring!

Li JE

My children have been patients of Dr. Schlessinger's for several years. Dr. S is great with both of them (currently 12 and 7) , is great at offering multiple solutions, as well as informing us of the pros and cons of each type of treatment. He is one of the most detail oriented people I've ever met and one of the best physicians I've seen. He and his staff are honest, practice medicine with integrity and always put our best interests first. He treats our family like we're part of his family! What more could you ask for?

Katie Bailey

I went to Dr. Schlessinger for Dysport treatment on the forehead. I've never had any type of treatments before so I didn't know what to expect but everyone was so nice and friendly. I felt very comfortable talking with the staff and the doctor. My treatment turned out great and I got a new client discount which was an extra bonus! If you are considering Botox or Dysport I would highly suggest going to Dr. Schlessinger, you will have a great experience!

Deb Griffith

I remember that my dad had skin cancer several years ago. He spent much of his life working in the sun. I am fair skinned and love being out doors. Although I use sunblock lotion, when some suspicious spots began appearing on my skin, I wondered about them. One of them was on my forehead, grew rather quickly. One day it started to bleed and I knew I had to see a doctor. I lived in another state and I moved to Omaha just a few years ago. I googled information on skin care doctors in Omaha and it was clear that Dr. Schlessinger was the best. I called his office, explained what was happening and the receptionist was very professional and kind to me. My appointment was able to be scheduled within days. When I visited the office, I continued to have the same wonderful, kind, and professional experience. The office was easy to find. and the parking was convenient. It was raining but I was able to park in a covered area, walk a few steps to the elevator and go directly up to the office. The waiting area was bright and there were very interesting reading materials. The receptionist was very pleasant and friendly. I was only in the waiting area a few minutes and then I was taken back to a room. Dr. Schlessinger and his staff were amazing to me that day. They were very thorough, but also so very pleasant and kind to me. Upon examination, I had some additional skin lesions. They were removed that day. I was seen by Dr. Schlessinger and his staff within moments of being taken back to the exam room. The procedures were explained to me and all of the lesions were removed and biopsied. I had the utmost confidence in Dr. Schlessinger and his staff. I was impressed at how quickly I was seen and how professional everyone was. I felt my exam was thorough and competent. The doctor and his staff were kind, friendly, and extremely professional. I felt very fortunate that I was being treated by Dr. Schlessinger and his staff. It is very clear to me that they are experts in this care.

Kellie Esters

So often people share negative reviews on social media and rarely do people take time to share positive experiences so I wanted to share mine. I moved to Omaha a little over a year ago and needed to find a good and thorough dermatologist for regular skin screenings. After having a marginal experience with another dermatologist in town I decided to do my research before visiting another one. I ultimately decided to schedule an appointment with Dr. Schlessinger at Skin Specialists, P.C. and I am so glad I did. The staff greeted me in a warm and friendly manner, the office was super nice and clean and Dr. Schlessinger was personable, took his time with me and checked on several things that concerned me. I was so pleased that he didn’t just deal with one issue and ask me to reschedule to address the others. What really pleased me about my experience with Dr. Schlessinger was that he treated me with a minor procedure while I was there. Many physicians have back-to-back appointments so they make you schedule another appointment for additional treatments and charge you for additional office visits. In my case, that did not happen and I was so pleased with my time with Dr. Schlessinger and my treatment. I am happy to say I have found a dermatologist in Omaha that I am happy with and will continue to see for my treatments moving forward. In short, if you’re searching for a great dermatologist, I recommend you give Dr. Schlessinger a try.

Raina Behrens

Terrible experience, I made an appointment for an emergency consultation because my eyes were nearly swollen shut. They couldn't "fit" me in for weeks. I was forced to go to the ER because my condition worsened. I was not told all of the correct information regarding the appointment and after waiting more than two weeks was told they could not see me upon arrival. They were extremely unprofessional, rude, and wasted my time that I had to request off of work for the appointment. I recommend going to one of the other great dermatologists in Omaha.

Jay Anderson

I've been going to Dr. Schlessinger for several years and that's because he does great work and I trust him. I've had several spots removed from my face and after following the care instructions he provided, I don't have any noticeable scars at all. They take great care to minimize scaring and perform procedures quickly and effectively. He and his staff are always very professional, friendly and courteous which really makes you feel at ease. They answer all of my questions and perform follow ups to make sure everything was okay after the procedures. Dr. Schlessinger and his team are voted Best of Omaha for good reason. They're the only ones I'll ever go to for my skin care needs!

Jennifer Horton

WHAT A HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE!!! AFTER THIS FACILITIES MISTAKES, I GET LETTER IN THE MAIL AFTER MY VERY FIRST VISIT THEY WILL NOT TREAT ME OR SEE ME FOR MY ISSUES!! I WILL NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE OF BUSINESS TO ANYONE I KNOW AND WILL BE REPORTING THESE FOLKS TO EVERY AGENCY I CAN REPORT THEM TO, HORRBILE HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sheri Phillips

Biggest waste of day and time traveled. Obviously do not recommend this place.

Austin Cook

Let me just start by saying that I have seen many cosmetic and plastic surgeons in the last couple years, and not a single one compares to Dr. Schlesinger. Dr. Schlesinger is extremely knowledgeable and welcoming surrounded by a comforting and supportive staff. I drove 2 hours to have Dr. Schlesinger give me injectable fillers, and it was worth every second. He is truly an artist and gave me the results I have wanted for so long. Dr. Schlesinger left no question of mine unanswered and provided me with all the advice and information I needed. His staff gave me a great warm welcome and the positive atmosphere they provided made the experience better than any I have ever had. If you are thinking about seeing a cosmetic surgeon or dermatologist, I urge you to see Dr. Schlesinger, he and his staff will help you achieve your goals as he did mine, and like I said, he is undoubtably one of the best in the business. Thank you, Dr. Schlesinger.

Caveman Gary

Dr. Schlessinger has been my go-to dermatologist for the past four years. Very good physician and funny to boot. Always have a great experience. Highly recommended!

KC McCloud

I have never had a dermatologist before so I was hesitant to start seeing Dr. Schlessinger. But once I did, I wish I had gone sooner! I had gotten a staph infection on my face and the minute Dr. Schlessinger walked in the room, he knew instantly what was happening. Without hesitation he knew what to prescribe me and now I no longer have to be embarrassed by how my skin looks. It is clear! Along with the Doctor, his staff is AMAZING and very knowledgeable. The products they carry are top notch and make your skin feel fantastic. I would highly recommend Dr. Schlessinger and his team to anyone in search of a dermatologist. I cannot thank them enough.

Tara Tillman

My skin is changing. At 48, I now have adult acne. I'm a pimple popper (I know it's a bad habit), so I have some scarring. Went to Lovely Skin's Spa for help. Joey, my Specialist, recommended several products to help minimize my breakouts. Now, my skin is smooth and breakout free! Thanks Joey!

Jenna Davis

I have been seeing Dr. Schlessinger and his staff for years for my adult acne. They are all the sweetest people to come across and very professional. I highly recommend them!

Elizabeth Rogers

Dr. Joel Schlessinger deserves his well earned reputation as one of the top dermatologists in the U.S. In addition to developing a medical facility that functions successfully, he also researches & develops products & treatments for the benefit of the patient. Dr. Schlessinger immediately identified my skin cancer & proceeded with the appropriate medical care. He is a kind, concerned and obviously skilled & experienced physician. His staff works well & in unison with him. He is honest in his medical assessment of the diagnosis, prognosis, & direction necessary for healing. He was also very honest in his response to my question about wrinkles & my elderly skin! Thank you!! Dr. Schlessinger is a quality physician, a superior dermatologist and he has a quiet sense of humor that puts his patients at ease. There is an attitude of healing and a quality of excellence at Dr. Schlessinger's medical facility. I highly recommend him.

Ashley Bender

All the staff members were so kind and helpful, from the receptionist to the nurses. My reason for going was to have some skin spots checked and remove for possible skin cancer. My incisions healed well and they all made sure I was informed of what was going on as they did the procedure. My results were emailed to me within a couple of days and there was also a follow up appointment where they made sure I did not have any questions. Everyone was SUPER helpful and extremely knowledgeable about any questions that I had. My scars have all healed great to the point of barely being able to see them and it has been less than a year. I highly recommend Dr. Schlessinger's office!

Donna Simon

I have been a patient of Dr. Joel for a few years now, I have complete confidence in him and his staff as they have treated and monitored my skin. He has done 2 MOH's procedures on my face, he is so quick and efficient, you are done before you know it. Dr. Joel and his staff are always very pleasant, I feel like they really care about me.

Patty Scott

The staff at Dr Schlessingers is always very helpful and friendly. I participated in the facial creams study and again in the body moisturizer study. It was fun to try new products and to help with the testing.

Kendra Hunter

Dr. Schlessinger and his staff are wonderful! I feel like they really care about me and provide great dermatology care. They listen to all my concerns and answer any questions I may have. They go above and beyond to provide great service and make me feel comfortable. I highly recommend them to anyone!!!

P M

Overall great experience! Dr. Schlessinger is pretty awesome and staff is super friendly. I didn't shop around for pricing so I don't know how they are in comparison... I think the price is just fine for the results I get and I didn't want it done cheap, I wanted it done right. They are great about telling me when the specials are so I can take advantage. They make me feel comfortable and answer all my questions. Only place I'll go to.

On a recommendation, I took my girls into see the Dr, then went with the PA after the Dr. was not in the office the 3 times we have visited. My insurance does not pay for him so I have to pay the copay every time. With 2 girls going on their every 6-8 week protocol, it gets out of sight expensive. For my convenience, I made my girls' appointments together. But that was too long for my one daughter to go between appointment (longer than the most 8 weeks they allow) so they will not refill her meds. By the time she can return in 2 weeks, the follow up on meds will be a mute point as any progress made has already been undone 10 days in. I believe their having to be seen every 6-8 week policy is a money making scheme. My girls have seen other dermatologists annually and refilled their medications all year! My daughters liked the PA and I truly believed she knew what she was doing (besides trying to see me their skin care line). I did not cancel the appointments, trying to decide what to do. Then the pharmacy called today and stated the office called and said BOTH girls were no longer patients at the clinic. Seriously, that is very professional. Proves my point...they do not care. As a parent of teens...I will be telling all my friends to avoid at all costs. Appointments have been made elsewhere. Lucky for me...they are actually seeing a dermatologist!! My recommendation is to go elsewhere and save your time, money and lots of frustration. They do not have their patients best interest at heart.

Joan

I have always had great experiences with both Dr. Schlessinger and his team. They are always so courteous and professional. My questions are answered with care and consideration. I feel that the treatments are done extremely well and that Doctor is honest and kind with his recommendations. I am now trying Kybella, because I trust Dr. Schlessinger's expertise and high skill level. Looking forward to the results because the neck area is my personal "it really bothers me alot" zone....I highly recommend Dr Schlessinger and his team. :)

Nithya Rajagopalan

Very efficient treatment of facial acne. Dr. Schlessinger and his P.A. prescribed to me the most potent antibiotics needed to get rid of my stubborn skin problems. I had clear skin (only scars left) within just two months of visiting Skin Specialists.

Tim Goodall

I have never been so humiliated in my life. Sitting there almost naked and feeling vulnerable, they told me that to do any actual work on me it was going to cost x number of dollars. The receptionist had told me that for the $100 I had agreed to pay initially that would include some diagnostic work. When I complained that I got nothing for my money, no diagnostic or anything, I was told I still had to pay over $100. For what I ask? I think this office is just out to make the buck!

Kelley Burgin

I have been to three different doctors who kept treating me for allergies different meds different creams with no success because I did not have allergies and Dr. Schlessinger and his amazing staff saw that right off. I recieved excellent care and impeccable professionalizium from Dr.. Schlessinger and his staff and only one week later I have improved by 90% I cannot say thank you enough for what you have done for me and my skin condition. I am hoping to visit your spa real soon and get a few things done there as well. You will not be disappointed after seeing this staff of professional. Thanks You Dr. Schlessinger and Staff.

Doug Wilwerding

Dr. Schlessinger and his team are far and away the most professional, welcoming, engaging, and capable team I have experienced in any medical practice. Every step of the way with every procedure they patiently explain what they are doing, why they are doing it, how it will effect you as the patient, and what to expect going forward. They walk you through the cost of each procedure. There are no surprises. They have seamlessly integrated leading edge technology to drive exceptional efficiency while maintaining a very personal and individual relationship with their patients. Well done Dr. Schlessinger and all of the professionals that make up your excellent team.

Kimberly Ramos

I am delighted to share my experience with Dr. Schlessinger's office! I was treated kindly and respectfully the entire time. I was well informed of the procedure that needed to be done. My mole removals were absolutely pain free! I was amazed. Dr. Jackie is really good at her job! I will continue to see them as needed. Thank you for a great experience!!!

Lindsay Watson

5 stars is hardly comparable to the rating Dr. Schlessinger and his team deserve. Every time I go in for my appointments, I leave happier than when I walked in, even after having moles removed! That's because Dr. Schlessinger and his staff are incredibly welcoming and engaging. In my experience, it's rare to find that kind of welcoming environment, not only from the Dr., but the entire staff as well. My only complaint is that I can't see him for my every single health concern I have!

Becky Jones

I was recently at Dr. Schlessinger's and was treated with great respect and understanding. I had almost no wait and the Doctor was in to see me right away. He eased my mind and my body and I am truly grateful. The nurses are really sweet and efficient.

Mary F

I've had Botox from about 8 doctors, most of them in California but also in Europe, South Africa and one other dermatologist in Omaha. The results I had from Dr. Schlessinger's Botox were BY FAR the best I've experienced. All of the positive benefits were achieved and none of the negative happened (frozen face, drooping eyelid, etc). Absolutely THE BEST results. He's a master at this, speaking from one who has experienced fairly poor results to darn good, but not GREAT until I found Dr. Schlessinger.

Michael Wilkinson

Your most unhappy customers are your best source of learning. Sorry, you did not learn anything from me.

Rosemarie Armentrout

My experience here was amazingly awful. The receptionist treated me as if I were a child. I may look young, but I am 27 years old. This clinic is all about money. I would consider myself as an upper middle class person so money is not too much of an issue for me, but their pricing just for a simple consultation (no procedure being done) is ridiculous. Their bathrooms were so filthy that I didn't bother using it while I was there. They have definitely lost me as a potential client, and I will be sure to tell all my older lady friends, my boyfriends older female relatives, and any other older woman that I know who gets cosmetic procedures to NOT COME HERE. And that's how this place will lose their business- not just by losing me as a potential customer- but by losing MORE than one potential customer. Never underestimate the power of connections.

Mike Bischoff

I think the PA, staff, and Dr Schlessinger have a substandard level of care. I am shocked at the majority of the reviews. I had two options for care. I said I cannot make that decision, I need you to (they are supposed to be the experts). They became frustrated. I said I'm not trying to frustrate you, if you were me, what would you do? PA says "I'm not you, you have to decide." She says, if you don't decide, you'll have to leave with no treatment. Maybe it is just me but that, coupled with the fact that I arrived 15 minutes early for an appointment and then waited for just under an hour to get into the appointment, I just didn't care for it. I found the female PA there to be extremely defensive when questions were being asked. It was bizarre. Maybe she was having a bad day. I'd avoid, but that's just me

Gary Leak

I strongly disagree with the review that says they don't care about customer service. Everyone from receptionist to nurse to PA to Dr. Schlessinger were caring. I've seen 4 dermatologists in my life and he is the only one where I didn't feel rushed. The examination and discussion of my condition was carefully done. Really nice people.

Taylor Boryca

The first time I went to Dr. Schlessinger I was highly impressed. I have been to countless different dermatologist and they never seemed to take my acne serious. I was always told you will grow out of. Now being 23 years old and still suffering from acne, I decided to try a household name and was recommended to Dr. Schlessinger. In the first time of meeting him, I knew there was a plan of action for my skin. He not only recommended some different skin care products for me but also put me on medication. Also another thing that I was impressed with was the friendly and knowledgable staff. I only waited 5 minutes in the lobby which was a plus. Most doctors, dentists, or dermatologist you end up waiting 45 minutes for your appointment. Nothing but positive things to say. If you have tried everything for you skin and nothing has worked, give him a try! You will not regret it.

Sarah Caswell

I have always had a great experience at this office. Dr. Schlessinger, the nurses and staff are terrific. They are very comprehensive, knowledgable and accessible. I have never had to wait in the waiting room very long and have always left feeling that any concerns I raised were taken seriously and followed up on. Highly recommend.

Allison Kraft

I have been a patient of Dr. Schlessinger's for years for acne and other skin issues. He, along with his PAs, nurses and other staff have always been accommodating, efficient, and extremely personable. I visited multiple dermatologists prior to him and was given medications that did not work. The first time I was in to see him, my skin problem was diagnosed and treated.

T. Justine Reilly

The doctors work is flawless and quick.

Alli Hukill

Highly recommend Dr. Schlessinger and his entire staff.

Katrina Hjermstad

I've been taking my daughters to Dr. Schlessinger for a couple years now but when an unusual problem came up that I couldn't get any resolution for I made an apt with Dr. Schelessinger and he listened. My daughter had a small lump in her armpit and our pediatrician could not determine what it was after 2 rounds of antibiotics, an ultrasound and an MRI. I made an appointment with Dr. Schlessinger to see if it might be a skin problem. He too felt the small lump and after listening to my daughter told us we should consult a surgeon. Our pediatrician told us based on the test results that would do us no good. He encouraged us to go, though, and said he would even make a call to our pediatrician if that would help. We did go and they were reluctant to do anything about it but my daughter was in pain and they went ahead and went in and removed the lump. It ended up being extra breast tissue and would have continued to cause her further issues. The surgeon told us he was so glad we had insisted because the tests were just not showing the problem. I credit Dr. Schlessinger with not only listening to my daughter but understanding that sometimes the patient just knows when there is a problem. We may not have moved forward without this appointment!

Kara Williams

I have been going to Dr Joel Schlessinger for about 7 years now. His expertise is amazing and he always makes you feel comfortable no matter what the medical situation is. The nurses there are very friendly, personal and efficient! I would recommend anyone that has skin concerns to visit this office or even get involved in the research department. The group treats you like family! Thanks again Dr Schlessinger for all you do for me and the community!

Pamela McGovern

Love this place. They treat me like family. Dr Schlessinger's store across the street is also amazing. Thanks for being so wonderful.

Amy Barry

I had to have a basal cell carcinoma removed from under my eye. It looks so good you can barely tell there is a scar there. I was very nervous about having surgery around my eye, and it turned out great.

demetria sheard

Wad referred by a friend solved my skin problems first hand, very knowledgeable, and professional. Will never go anywhere else.

Brianna

I contacted Dr. Schlessinger's office on a Tuesday afternoon & I was able to get an appointment the same day. The staff in his office was very friendly. Dr. Schlessinger and his PA Jackie were both very knowledgeable and didn't keep me waiting. I will absolutely go back to Dr. Schlessinger and recommend him to friends and family!

I made an appointment with Dr. Schlessinger's office for the examination and removal of a growth on my head. I had read the reviews and was happy to see that not only did he offer services for cosmetic procedures but he offered dermatology services for serious skin problems and concerns. His staff was very professional and kind. I wasn't sure I would even see Dr Schlessinger himself since he is recognized for his progressive work and tremendous success in the field of dermatology but I was so glad that he himself did the exam of the growth on my head. He was so personable, knowledgeable and he has a sunny disposition. Love that! I will definitely see him again for any skin care needs. I HIGHLY recommend Dr Schlessinger.

I had been to Dr Schlessinger for a consultation in the past, he was very attentive to what I said I was looking to do. I had some concerns and he assured me that if he wasn't confident in doing the work, he would not do it. I went back for my appointment and I couldn't be happier with the results. He is a perfectionist and I would highly recommend him to anyone wanting to look and feel amazing!!!

Jane Roden

My experience at Dr. Schlessinger's office was wonderful! I was greeted when I first came in by a friendly receptionist. Ashley came right out and said that it would be a few minutes and offered to get me a glass of water. The waiting area was very comfortable and relaxing. I only had to wait a few minutes. Ashley did a wonderful job explaining the procedure that I was going to have. She answered all my questions and she put me at ease. I have a scar on my nose and Dr. Schlessinger filled it with a filler. He was so kind and gentle. He made me feel at ease immediately. He also asked if I had any questions. The filler worked perfectly and there wasn’t any bruising or any sign of any trauma. The whole procedure was perfect. I would recommend Dr. Schlessinger to anyone. He will answer all your questions and really listen to your concerns. Great job to Dr. Schlessinger and to Ashley too!!

There are better dermatologists in Omaha.

I had such a good experience at this clinic. Dr . Joel Schlessinger and his staff, ( I had experience with Cassie, during my appointment and with Apple, in the Lovely Skin section,) asked about my family and remembered details that I had shared previously. The office and staff are professional, clean, and very orderly. Even though it was a busy day, I have never felt rushed. Dr Schlessinger shared a personal anecdote that he knew I woukd find interesting. These personal touches can and do, really set this practice apart. As a health care professional myself, I value this office's professional approach .

Rebecca Thompson

I did not even get a chance to meet with the doctor. I inquired about making an appointment for a large lump on my face. I explained in the inquiry that it was growing close to my eye and swelling quickly. I received an email immediately stating that I should see an optometrist and good luck with my problem; essentially they weren't even going to bother seeing my SKIN condition. Quite peeved with them swatting me away like a fly. Great "customer" service.

Kathy Kruse

Dr. Schlessinger and his entire staff truly embrace customer service. My visit was met with attention to making me feel welcomed and important. From the time I entered the office, I was provided with a sense of true compassion not only for my medical needs, but the caring touch of assisting me in relaxing and trusting the staff. Dr. Schlessinger did a great job of answering questions, providing information and is obviously an world class dermatologist. Thank you to the entire staff for exceeding my expectations!

Ashley Chard

This office makes each procedure comfortable, exciting, and well worth your time! Dr. Joel Schlessinger has such a wonderful bedside manner and is a true artist! The entire staff has always been so caring during each visit and they always make sure to address all of my concerns. Come see this office for all your skin care needs, you won't regret it!

Nerissa Pintner

I love Lovely Skin and Dr Schlessinger. I appreciate his expertise and have always had a pleasant experience with him as well as the entire staff. I will continue to go to him for all my future skin care needs as well as recommended to my family and friends.

Chloe Birkholt

I have seen him for acne, foot fungus, and a sore on my ankle. I use to be very happy with him before his practice was extremely oversized. The last year I had seen him he only prescribed me antibiotics that extended over several months. The foot fungus I was perscribed another antibiotic and topical that did not help. The most frustrating part was when I went in to get my ankle checked for MRSA. They wiped it with alcohol before they cultured it therefore the culture came back negative. The sore kept growing and increasing in pain so I went somewhere else and I did indeed have MRSA. Now I have a very large scar, because it was not taken care of when it first showed up due to the lack of ability to culture in Dr. Schlessinger's office. Whenever I went in, I made a stronger relationship with the PA than with Dr. Schlessinger, because I only saw him for two minutes. Even in those two minutes he did not really seem like he cared about me and that he was just needing to get to his next patient. I understand if he was in a rush just a few visits if he was busy, but it was everytime. I never felt like he wanted to give me the time of day.

Abby Curry

Dr. Schlessinger and staff have been very professional during each visit! We have four family members who are patients of his, and all four of us are very happy with the services provided. We would recommend his services to all ages! Our ages range from 13-41, and all our individual needs have been met!

Kayla Cornelison

I have been going to Dr.Schlessinger for about 4 months now and I couldn't be happier. The skin specialists are very thorough- you see numerous people in just one visit. They monitor the side effects of medication as well as labs and levels very well (also I've never had to be poked more than once!) I have suffered from cystic acne with pretty severe scarring and no other dermatologist have been able to touch it- upon going here I feel pretty again and I'm so much more comfortable in my own skin --which is clearing up (: HIGHLY RECOMMEND! 5 STARS

Jessica P.

The staff at Lovely Skin is always very professional, as well as very friendly and helpful! You are always greeted with a smile!

William Greguras

I have been going to Dr. Schlessinger for several years now and have always felt comfortable with him. He puts me at ease and shows interest in me as a person. My appointments are on time and the staff as well as Dr. Schlessinger are friendly and helpful. Pat Greguras

Sherry Schmitt

I am so happy treatment and results at Skin Specialists. Dr. Schlessinger has exceptional skill, vision and experience. Staff are helpful, respectful and committed to patient comfort and privacy. All my questions were answered, procedures explained and cost given prior to treatment. Wonderful experience, first class facility!

Ashley Cardenas

Chelsea Hoschar

After trying other dermatologists and countless OTC products and not having success in clearing my acne, Dr. Schlessinger has given me a treatment plan that has given me skin I never believed I would have. So glad I went to see him and his team!

Nhạc Sĩ Su Lee

I don't like it, took my mom there to see a doctor for her poisoned products. I thought I was a doctor when I came there, I m the one who told him all the allergies stuffs, he just keep asking all the questions, don't even get closer to see my mom skin, and touch to c how it was. He gave mom a cleanser, and a heeling balm, it getting worse for her skin, getting dry out more and more, burning, after using those products. It took over 2 weeks now, I have to find another doctor for her, will never come back to that place. I don't like the doctor.......

Ida Carson

I tried to get a appointment to see Dr. Schlessinger. I do have medical insurance. I was informed there is an office fee of 160.00. I havent worked in over a month due to my medical issue. I was really hoping to get some help.

Ann Smith

I love Dr. Schlessinger! He knows how to make you look natural but a better version of yourself. Nobody knew that I had filler or botox but everyone claimed I looked healthy and well! I highly recommend Dr. Schlessinger.

Dorothy Miller

I had my first appointment with Dr. Schlessinger about a month ago. I have gone to a dermatologist for years, but my doctor retired, and Dr. Schlessinger was highly recommended. I am so happy with the results. This morning I actually glanced in the mirror before attending a meeting and said, "Thank you for my face, Dr. Schlessinger." I highly recommend him. He is professional, courteous, and caring. I also especially enjoyed Cassie, his patient consultant. If you have any skin care needs, just go!

Sheryl Harriman

I have been a patient for over 10 years. I have the utmost respect for Dr. Schlesinger and his expertise in his field. He is extremely compassionate and is willing to listen regardless of how many patients he has to see. Even if it takes a little longer at his office, it is more than worth your time! I drive an hour for my appointments and it is time well spent!

Jordan Mapes

Dr. Schlessinger was friendly, courteous and fast! The wait was short and he diagnosed my rash right away.

Nichole Davis

Dr. Schlessinger and his team are fantastic! I was very nervous before my surgery, but everyone went above and beyond to make sure that I was comfortable. I couldn't be happier with the care I received. Not only did they explain every step of the process, they checked on me via email, phone calls, and handwritten notes before and after. I couldn't ask for a friendlier, more professional group of people and will happily use their services again. Where else will a surgical team set you up with a Jimmy John's lunch in the recovery room? As soon as I arrived, I was given a tour of the entire facility and told about their retail location. After having such a great experience at the clinic, I naturally checked out their store. The staff at the store were also amazing. I was greeted at the door, and they set me up with some new products and a ton of samples. If you're in the market for a dermatologist or cosmetic surgeon, look no further!

jennifer schimmer schimmer

Love my results! I worked 13 years outside as an asphalt and concrete contractor and I was always squinting because of the heat or sun. Dr Schlessinger and Dysport have came to the rescue to help me age gracefully! I also tried Volbella to help accentuate my lips and it was a great enhancement! My results are very natural and don’t look overdone. I was very worried because I have heard horror stories of how painful it could be but my experience was much different! It really wasn’t uncomfortable at all! This just goes to prove that having such an experienced doctor will make all the difference in the world! Overall I highly recommend Skin Specialists, they took so much time to answer all of my questions, the staff was super friendly and I REALLY trust Dr Schlessinger to give me beautiful results. I did a ton of research when it came to choosing this office and I’m so glad I did! I travel over 2 hours to this office to receive ethical, professional results. Also don’t forget to stop at their store next door, so many goodies!

Christina Case

Words cannot describe how amazing Dr. Schlessinger and the entire Lovely Skin team are. I've been going to them for about a year now and my skin has truly never looked so amazing. They take sincere consideration into you as a person and the uniqueness of the conditions that may be affecting your skin. The staff is always so pleasant, timely, and willing to listen. They do an excellent job explaining the regimine they recommend for you and ensuring you understand the science behind having *lovely skin*. I also use their Lovely Skin line and it has done wonders for my skin. I have struggled with acne for years, and have tried everything from ProActive to accutane with no avail. Their cleansing line and prescribed topical/medications have made my skin absolutely flawless. People comment all the time that I have wonderful skin and I tell them that I have a very very good dermatologist! To emphasize how great Dr. Schlessinger is, I have even recommended him to my friends and family. I have nothing but great things to say about the entire organization. I don't think I will ever be able to leave Omaha, solely because I never want to leave Lovely Skin! 10/10 recommend!

Jadee Isler

I have moved and traveled to many places my entire life, and with each move came a new dermatologist. Each dermatologist like the next in their treatment of me as a patient. Their same recommendations of prescriptions and topical creams...it was as if I could never find anything that really worked nor could I been seen and heard as an individual. I moved to Omaha in August and soon found out I needed yet again another dermatologist. I was completely blown away by the professionalism and relational genuineness Dr. Schlessinger and his staff team carried. I have never been treated so well, so individually, and so targeted with kindness friendliness before in a dermatology office. I would recommend this Dr and team to ANYONE in the Omaha or surrounding areas. Their helpfulness to me and my skin was noted by their zeal for what they do and their intelligence in their field.

Mandy M

I was looking to try botox for the first time and after doing some research, I decided to book a consultation with Dr. Schlessinger. His staff (Cassie!) was wonderful and answered all of my questions. And the doctor was fabulous! I'm thrilled with my results and will definitely be returning. I would highly recommend Dr. Schlessinger!!

Andrea Seminara

I have been seeing Dr. Schlessinger for almost five years. He and his staff are absolutely amazing. They are always accommodating to my schedule and make everything so quick and easy. Dr. Schlessinger is kind, caring and a true artist. He always makes me look and feel beautiful. I highly recommend him for all of your dermatology and skincare needs.

Kristy Feldman

Dr. Schlesinger and his staff have always provided timely, accurate service to myself and my family. Appointments are flexible and they will place you on a waiting list in case there are cancellations. I use this office for medical and cosmetic procedures and have always been satisfied.

Mrs. Nelson

I didn't even see the doctor and was disappointed. All I wanted was for him to look at the spot on my face. The receptionist says we can run the office visit thru your insurance but it may be cosmetic and then there will be a charge. I asked how much and she srugged her shoulders and said I don't know. I said forget this and walked out. I work in a doctors office myself and we can also give the paient a range of how much it will be. I believe this office just wants money and doesn't care about customer service.

Nancy Larson

Words can not explain the care received from Dr. Schlessinger and the entire staff. I have been a patient now for several years and needless to say, they are like family to me. I truly wish they could meet all my health care needs. My skin care needs have always been addressed with urgency and I am thankful that all has been taken care of before turning into anything serious. I would highly recommend Dr. Schlessinger! The care, compassion and concern is absolutely superb!!

Tana Lukes

Dr. Schlessinger and his team are absolutely wonderful. They are so kind and helpful. I had a lot of questions about different options and regarding the treatment and they were so patient and caring with me! They were honest and extremely thorough and treated me with utmost respect. They took extra time to make sure I had all of the information I needed to proceed. The actual treatment was smooth and easy and I am absolutely thrilled with the results already. I would recommend Dr. Schlessinger and his associates to all of my friends and family - because they are truly that wonderful.

Rebecca Beer

The staff were completely rude. I had to insist they check my co-pay after they highly encouraged me to pay the $160 office visit for both of my kids and work with my insurance to get reimbursed. They then only suggested a treatment that would cost $170-$200 per child per session and they would need 11 treatment sessions. When I stated that financially didn’t work the billing person said “well if you can’t afford it then we will discharge you.” I was just asking for other options which they had none for my children’s warts. They also stated the medication wouldn’t be covered by insurance and said paying their $60 was the cheapest I would get. I had them submit it to the pharmacy and it cost $5. This office was not about my child’s care it was all about the money. Will never return.

Jill Adkins

I am a 40 year old, blonde hair, blue eyes, fair-medium skin female. I am covered with moles. I have always been covered in moles and never thought anything of them. I had one mole, on my abdomen, that my OBGYN always noticed while I was pregnant and said to be sure to have it checked out. I scheduled an appointment with Dr. Schlessinger in March 2016 to have my moles looked at and because I had a bacterial infection on my face that was causing severe break outs and redness. Dr. Schlessinger and his Physician Assistant both did a body scan. Yes, I was standing there mostly nude and they were up close and personal looking over every inch of my body! Uncomfortable, yes, but not nearly as uncomfortable as I can only imagine Melanoma or another cancer is. They doctors identified 5 moles that warranted removal. The procedure to remove the moles is like having a cavity filled. They numb the area locally and then remove the cells and send them off for testing. 4 of the 5 moles were dysplastic ((atypical moles) are unusual benign moles that may resemble melanoma.) When I went back for my follow up visit, I was seen by a second physician assistant that had not seen me before. She offered to do another body scan to see if she could identify any other moles that needed to be removed. She found two more. I am now up to 7 moles, on my body, that were bad and removed! The smallest, most insignificant mole on the palm of my hand was severely dysplastic which had to be re-opened and "cleaned out" a second time to ensure all the bad cells were removed. I am happy to say that I do not have melanoma. I have learned so much from everyone at Dr. Schlessinger's office. Did you know that you do the most damage to your skin before the age of 18? No sun screen as a child, tanning beds as a teenager, sun bathing covered in baby oil! I did it all and I am so thankful that I have Dr. Schlessinger and his team on my side now to perform mole checks! I am excited that my complexion is clearing up thanks to a short round of antibiotics and the Lovely Skin LUXE line of cleansers and moisturizers. Please schedule an appointment if you can relate to anything in this review!

Lois Balsillie

Just had a wonderful skin treatment at Dr Schlessinger's! The esthetician was extremely knowledgeable and skilled. It was such a relaxing hour and my skin looks and feels terrific. Definitely a five star experience!

Carole Zahn

Dr. Schlessinger and his staff are friendly, very caring and professional. Dr. Schlessinger is an excellent surgeon. I will be referring friends and family to this wonderful office!

Sarah Potts

Dr. Schlessinger and his team are amazing. I have never felt so comfortable and heard at a dermatologist practice before. Dr. Schlessinger and his team are always happy to answer my questions and make sure that I understand my treatments. So happy I moved to Omaha and found such a wonderful derm!!

Amanda Thompson

I've been going to Dr. Schlessinger for about 10 years for yearly mole checks and now 6 month mole checks. He is the only Dr. I trust to go to for my mole checks. Dr. Schlessinger and Jackie Hall have caught 8 dysplastic moles and taken them off with minimal scarring. Three of them were severely dysplastic. They caught them and treated with wide local excision. They take the time to check me over every 6 months and I usually have both of them look which gives me the assurance of 2 sets of eyes. They have also educated me about my high risk and what to look for myself and give me a print out of my biopsy when asked. I am high risk to have melanoma and Dr. Schlessinger is the only Dr. I trust to help me prevent melanoma.

Katrina Lane

I was going to have an unscheduled procedure done. The receptionist came to me first, to let me know what my out of pocket expense would be, because I had not yet met my deductible. I was so happy she told me ahead of time and I didn't have a several hundred dollar surprise upon leaving. It was very personal attention and appreciated. Thanks!

Sara Mo

I had an appointment there to remove a wart off my face. they called me a day before and said Dr Schlessinger won't be in office and one of the PAs will see me (which sounded strange to me. I made an appointment with Dr Schlessinger and he won't be there?!!). Anyway, My visit with PA went very well. The staffs, nurses and the PA all were super nice. The PA looked at all the warts and explained thoroughly about the treatment which was cutting them off from my face. She cut them off very fast using local anesthesia and I didn't feel anything. I am normally terrified of needles but they really did a perfect job.

Cheryl Thompson

I have now had two appointments at the Lovely Skin Spa for facials. I struggle with adult acne, blackheads, and then dry skin. I have been extremely pleased with my results, following my facials including extractions, and expert advise for products to assist me in attaining more healthy skin. I highly recommend the facials at the Lovely Skin Spa!

Emily Boganowski

Absolutely exceptional customer service from the office staff, the doctor’s assisting staff, and Dr. Schlessinger himself! I am extremely self-conscious about my skin problems but had no reason to feel uncomfortable here. Everyone I met was extremely helpful and took time to listen to every single concern and question I had. Dr. Schlessinger was also very attentive, though he was only in the room for a brief time (because obviously he is a very busy man) he made a point to inform me of results, concerns, and various other intricate details. They do have some products that they want to sell you but I never felt pressured or lectured about purchasing them.

Kinda K

Worse place I have ever been to I’m telling you do not waste your time here because they will waste your time. The doctor here does not want to do things your way and is very judgmental.

George Flock

I have been a patient with Dr. Schlessinger for nearly 4 years now and I have a lot to be thankful for in the medical care he has provided. I have skin cancer, something that started when I was a kid working on a ranch in Nebraska, basking in the sun from 6am to 8pm daily as I rode horses, drove tractors, and a myriad other things, while wearing no hat or shirt. In those days we just didn't know what damage the sun can do to your skin. Now I'm paying the price, but thanks to the great services of Dr. Schlessinger and his staff of professionals, I'm staying a step ahead of that deadly cancer called melanoma. I'm now 73 years old, have a beautiful wife, two great children, and 8 grandchildren that I adore and want to see grow up. Dr. Schlessinger and his staff are giving me that chance to watch them grow....for which I am truly grateful. I highly recommend Dr. Schlessinger's service to anyone who needs cosmetic or, in my case, life extending care. Dr. Schlessinger and his staff of professionals are courteous, caring, and the best there is in skin care and skin treatment.

Cheryl Henricksen

Dr. Schlessinger and his staff are the best! I have been a patient for many years now. Most recently I ended up with a skin infection on my face which was horrible, not to mention hideous to look at. Monday morning I called their office and was able to come in that morning. Jackie and Dr. Schlessinger diagnosed the problem, sent the prescription to the pharmacy, told me I would be feeling better by that night. They were right. I am so glad they are "my people". They are the best and I love them for that!

Lisa Housler

Dr Schlessinger and Jackie Hall are AMAZING!!!! It is so easy to clearly see that they truly care about my well-being. Skin problems are embarrassing but they have NEVER made me feel ashamed or embarrassed. I have referred numerous people to Skin Specialist and have only heard positive feedback from each one. Stop worrying and start feeling confident about how you look!!! :)

Alexandria Barrett

I Do not recommend this place. I went in and immediately felt uncomfortable. They had about 5 different people come in and talk to me before the actual doctor came in and every one of them i pretty much told the exact same thing to. I was having issues with acne and cystic bumps on my back. I felt immediately judged due to having a lot of tattoos. And they basically made it sound like it was probably a “bacterial infection” due to tattoos but said it in nicer words. I’ve had these bumps and acne issues since i was a teenager and way before i got tattoos. Then they just tried to sell me on all of their facial products. But they swabbed my face and just put me on a 2 month antibiotic. I never got a call with any sort of results, I’ve never heard of a two month antibiotic, and it didn’t change a single thing. I took all of the medicine and still have the bumps and same amount of acne as i did when i walked in there. Complete waste of money and complete waste of time. Please don’t even respond to my review “apologizing” either

Nicolle Abubakar

As a first time patient, this was a five star experience for me. I saw a nurse, P.A. and the doctor. All three were friendly and knowledgeable. They took the time to ask questions about my concerns, my current habits and lifestyle, and what things I'd tried in the past, including what I did and did not like. My treatment plan was customized based on this information. The facility is beautiful and the team is great, from the check-in to the treatment. I would highly recommend.

Leslie Sanders

I have been seeing Dr. Schlessinger for about 6 years, I have found him to be very professional and knowledgeable. His staff is always friendly and courteous . I have seen him for skin cancer check up and cosmetic procedures. I have always been very happy with my results and would recommend him to friends and family.

Donna Lessig

Susan Johnson

Dr. Schlessinger and his staff are outstanding. They take common courtesy to an uncommon level. All I can say is Wow! (Except, of course, I'm grateful.)

Mary Mascarello

I absolutely recommend Dr Schlessinger. I have never had a long wait time in the lobby or in the patient rooms. He has always been available during the appointment for as long as I need him to be, answering questions and making sure I'm doing well. He also discovered Basal Cell Carcinoma that another derm had missed (a spot I was concerned about, but the first derm dismissed..Dr S biopsied it and found cancer!). When he removed the Basal cell carcinoma, he was thorough and got rid of all of it, but ALSO cared about what it would look like when he was done - which I absolutely appreciate because the spot was on my nose, smack in the center of my face. I highly doubt any other derm in the area would have done as awesome a job, you can barely tell there's a scar! He's the best! And the office is a well-oiled machine, they know how to work things so that you don't feel rushed but you're also not there for hours waiting for anyone or anything! Even my cancer removal procedure went smoothly and swiftly!

Grant Keast

Excellent staff and service - it's hard to beat their professional, personable, and caring style. Will definitely be going back!

Valerie Kunz

I've recently moved back to Omaha and needed to find a Dermatologist. I booked an appointment with Dr Joel and was extremely pleased with everything about his clinic. The staff are friendly and attentive. My appointment with the doctor was on time and I really appreciated his full undivided attention to my needs and the high level of professionalism combined with authentic friendliness. I highly recommend Dr Schlesinger for any of your dermatology needs.

Adriana Dinino

Painful experience! Had a mole removed in the back of my arm, they cut down deep enough to give me internal stitches but didn't offer any pain meds.

Saint Lemon

Before coming in for my visit, I was trying to get in everywhere. I called 4 specialists prior and no one even took the time to offer to put me on a potential callback list if a cancellation had come up. But Skin Specialists PC did! They also made sure I got an appointment set up. The service I received before coming in was more than exceptional. I've never had a more pleasant and helpful service when trying to make an appointment. I don't remember the young lady's name, but she was very kind with the process. She even informed me that Dr. Schlessinger would be out of town and an assistant would be seeing me. That was reassuring to know who I was seeing before my visit. When I got the the office, I was very nervous. I went to a Primary doctor prior who was unsuccessful with providing me with information and it had my family and I worried. After filling out the forms for my first visit, I was seen in moments. I didn't have a long wait time in the lobby and once in my room, we got right to the point of finding out what was going on. Photos were taken, information was jotted down. Standard, I'm assuming, but it was nice to know that they were listening to me when I was explaining what was going on. In less than 10 minutes they had an idea of what was going on which was more than helpful. I was relieved that they had a better answer than an "I don't know" which is what I was getting before. FINALLY! An answer! I was prescribed some prescriptions and given information that was helpful. The only thing that would have been a little more beneficial, but not at all an issue, was I would have liked to have more information on what the condition was. I was given a name of a diagnosis, and the prescriptions. I ended up having to look up the information on the diagnosis myself, but it wasn't a deal breaker. i was just happy that I had information. All in all, I had great customer service, the appointment time is less than a week, my wait time was short and in minutes I had some answers. I would definitely recommend Skin Specialists PC to friends, family, and colleagues. And I definitely will be back in the future.

Reasoner Papio

I recently saw Dr. Schlessinger for my yearly mole check. I always get a thorough body check. Dr. Schlessinger and his nurses are all very friendly and explained to me what was going to happen at my mole check and they take the time to answer all my questions.. I have always had a great experience from the time I enter the office until I leave. I would highly recommend Dr. Schlessinger to anyone looking for a great Dermatologist!! Debbi

Bryan Edelstein

Best dermatologist ever. Wouldn't go anywhere else in Omaha. And the staff was incredible. They were very kind to me.

Go see this man. I went to see Dr. Schlessinger for my facial acne that I had been battling for several months. I had been to two different doctors who I felt did not actually assess my individual case of acne, but instead went along with the usual, routine this-is-how-we-treat-it approach. After seeing one of those doctors who told me to return in three months (after only shaking my hand, looking at my face for two seconds and saying he would prescribe me something), I decided to go and see Dr. Schlessinger. I was reluctant to go and see him for a number of reasons, but in the end, his name was the one I kept hearing from people who had fantastic results. And now I know why. From the moment I arrived in the office the staff were friendly and it was a welcoming environment. The assistant who took me back to the office was thorough. They take pictures of your face for comparison purposes later on. Dr. Schlessinger came in a while later (the wait was a bit longer than I anticipated, but nothing that would turn me away) and chatted with me for a few minutes, reviewed the notes from his assistant and then - asked me some questions. I have little doubt that he knew the cause of my acne right away, but he took the time to be sure he was on the right path, to talk to me about it. I think he recognizes the very real pain and difficulty someone suffering from facial acne has and knows the attention you should pay to it. He also ran a lab test to be sure that the course of treatment he recommended was indeed the right one. About a week later I got a call that it was the problem he diagnosed and to continue the medication he prescribed. Within days I was seeing improvement. Within a week my face had half the issues it had. Within a month I was clear. I returned within 6 weeks and, thinking he would say, "You're cured. Now go home," Dr. Schlessinger continued to treat and diagnose. He asked how things were going of course and he also noted that it was not quite where he wanted it to be (and in my mind, I am thinking it was just where I wanted it to be, so it is pretty refreshing to be treated by someone who wants better for you than you are even expecting). I will return in another couple months. I have no doubt that he will continue to care for my skin in the same manner he did on that first visit. Going to him was one of the best decisions I made and I am only disappointed in not having gone sooner. Go see the man.

Diana

This place is all about money, to sell you services and products. The staff is nice, but everybody puts a lot of effort into selling you something. I would never go back.

Carol McConnell

Had a consultation with Dr. Schlessinger today and was beyond pleasantly surprised! I just moved to Omaha and one of the hardest things for me was leaving behind my network of doctors, personal care, and estheticians with whom I established relationships and trust. Dr. Schlessinger was extremely warm and engaging. He quickly quelled my reservations and concerns, and he listened to what I wanted to achieve. He completely explained procedures, outcomes, and was extremely reassuring. I would not hesitate to recommend him for dermatological or esthetic consultation or treatment! He is wonderful! I must add, I found his staff to be extremely professional, polite, and knowledgeable.

The receptionist was extremely friendly and got me in for an appointment an hour after I called. She was just as exceptional when I walked in the door. Everyone has a smile on their face and the office is very nice. The PA I saw, Rachel, was so awesome! She came in with me right away and spent a lot of time answering my questions. Overall, it was a terrific experience! I will go back again.

I have been going to Dr. Schlessinger's office for years now and I have been nothing but pleased. Dr. Schlessinger and his two pa's have treated me great and have found something that clears my skin of breakouts! Over the past year I have grown particularly found of both of his pa's, Racheal and Jackie. I am pre-pa myself and while mentioning this during an appointment, both of them were so helpful with any question I had about their specialty. I would recommend everyone go here!

I strongly agree this office only cares about money. I waited for an answer to my email request for an appointment for over a month and when I finally got one, they call me the same morning to inform me he doesn't accept Medicaid. I also have Medicare as a primary, not just Medicaid so I don't understand. I had made travel arrangements (being disabled) and after all my waiting, they call at the last minute to cancel. Very unprofessional!

I love the personal connection the staff has with their customers. Every time I get a checkup, I receive two evaluations. I am examined by a nurse then followed up by Dr. Schlessinger thus giving me a great sense I have a thorough examination. I have all of my questions answered and then set up my next visit. My appointment was completed over my lunch break and was less than 45 minutes going in and out of the door.

Had a great experience at the office with Dr. Schlessinger and his staff! They were very thorough in explaining the procedures, pricing, results expected, etc. I will definitely be returning to them in the future and recommending to friends.

Without sharing my long story; At 23 I experienced the worst acne breakout I had ever had. I was going to a different dermatologist who just kept switching topicals on me. Nothing was clearing my skin. I had heard about Dr. Schlessinger through a friend. My first visit Dr knew immediately what to do. Overall, the staff has been wonderful. They greet you with a smile. They work tremendously with insurance. They are able to answer any and all questions about your plan of treatment to what face wash you should use. Dr, the PA’s, and the nurses all genuinely care for you and your treatment. I believe they truly want the best for their patients.

I'm very pleased with Dr Schlessinger and his staff. My son was having what I thought was normal teenage acne but the moment Dr Schlessinger looked at my son's face he knew that he had a staph infection. I so wish we would of gone sooner. The before and after pictures are truly amazing. Everyone at the office is very friendly and welcoming. I definitely would recommend Dr Schlessinger to family and friends!!
