Dr Lichten and staff (Rhea) made my first visit welcoming. The office was easy to locate and parking was not an issue. The visit went smoothly and timely. All the staff I encountered were very professional. The Doctor made this experience very easy , answering all questions and giving thorough explanations. Would definitely recommend to others

Lichten is a hack. He carved me only to have my cancer return. I am now left with a devastating scar on my neck. Avoid this fraud of a dermatologist.

I can't think of a better doctor. He is very courteous and kind; interested in the patient, is familiar with the patient's life; diagnoses are accurate. He practises "due diligence"--which is a relief to me. Excellent in every category.

This supposed Doctor is caught up in all the new gimmicks. Does not explain your options and in in to packing his office so he can make the same money as he did last year. Less time with patients and prescribes medicine that can be dangerous to you and when happens does not have a care for you then. I am still dealing with complications from a medicine that he used on me. The thing is that we could have frozen the stuff off. I have know changed Doctors and I would avoid this arrogant excuse for a state certified health professional
