I have waited over an hour for any appointment I have had. Not an hour from when I arrived, an hour from appointment time until I was seen. I don’t know what type of appointment you need to schedule to get a full skin check but, I have never been able to get a skin check there. I am disappointed and confused as to why interaction varies by patient.

My 85 year old mother, myself, and my 16 year old daughter have gone to Dr. Lim for over 20years. We trust him for all of our skin problems. He is kind, caring, and treats you with respect.

I have been seeing, Dr. Lim, since my 20's. He has cured my Alopecia, caught & removed a Squamous Cell Carcinoma Tumor, and still treats me for miscellaneous skin issues. There is no better Dermatologist in Erie, PA, I would trust. And, his staff are very kind & friendly.

Dr. Lim is professional & very personable. He has been my Dermatologist for over 15 years. I once had a serious challenge which required surgery and It never redeveloped. Dr. Lim is not only the best in Erie, in my opinion, he is the best in practice.
