Featured Reviews
The 4 star review is a bit misleading due to the fact Dr. Daniel Yanes is a five star physician. He is the perfect trifecta of knowledge (Harvard trained), kindness, and skill. Additionally, the support staff (front desk and medical assistants) were very welcoming and customer-oriented. Areas I feel could be improved are: 1. Eliminate making a photocopy of driver licenses; this is a bit intrusive and unnecessary. I've never had that experience when going to a clinic for purely cosmetic reasons. I can understand asking to see an ID to ensure it matches the patient who made the appointment and the credit card they are utilizing. 2. I was diagnosed with a clinical problem, which was surprising given that I had seen my dermatologist a week earlier. I asked if the medication could be called into my local pharmacy, but Dr. Yanes stated it had to come from a 'compounding' pharmacy. I had never heard of a compounding pharmacy, and he explained it was a specialty pharmacy that combined multiple medications into a single product and mailed that medication directly to my home. I would be paying approximately $60 for one medication, as opposed to hundreds of dollars for three separate medications. He stated the pharmacy would be texting me after my appointment with the details on how to order. Literally, within an hour of my leaving, I received the text. I went through the order process as far as the last page when I was asked to accept the privacy terms and conditions of "Strive Pharmacy". I hesitated and did a quick Google search to find the pharmacy was located in Leesburg, Virginia and had horrendously bad recent reviews. It appears in November 2024, the compounding pharmacy was acquired by Strive (based in Arizona). Prior to that corporate acquisition, the reviews were stellar. I'm not certain if Dr. Yanes is aware of what is occurring with the pharmacy, but I hope both he and Dr. Isaac find a way to send prescriptions for non-compounded medications to pharmacies that patients trust and with whom their personal information will be safe. I personally opted to forgo ordering the medication that had been prescribed.
Dr. Isaac is a magician! Her staff and front desk are welcoming , professional and kind. Best dermatology practice on the east coast!

I have been receiving microneedling treatments from Laura for a few months now and I could not recommend her enough. She is caring, honest about the results you can expect, and always makes me feel comfortable. I have seen a major improvement in my stretch marks and I am so grateful for my noticeable results! Thank you Laura and MI Skin!
