Report
The staff was very unprofessional. I was kept waiting for much longer than expected. The staff also seemed to have no idea what they were doing and why I was there. After the whole ordeal I ended up cancelling my appointment to which the staff didn't seem to even care about the loss of business. I would not recommend booking an appointment with this establishment if this is their level of professionalism.

Absolutely terrible. Even if your doctor refers you to this terrible establishment find another doctor! The manager is extremely rude and disrespectful. STAY AWAY!

Report
Office was nice and clean. I was losing hairs from my epileptologist wanted me to see a derm to see if it was the new med causing hair loss. This doctor wouldn't even let me finish my sentence before he told me that it wasn't and I was just losing my hair, and only the $2500 (around) plasma shots would help if I did it quickly. Saw 2 other doctors since who have told me the exact opposite. Terrible "bedside" manner! Highly recommend not seeing Dr. Marakawa. His impressive resume doesn't come with any common sense.

I'd like to thank the staff at Somerset Skin Centre for their great treatment of my Dermatology emergency. I developed a skin condition over the weekend and woke up on Monday to find it had worsened and was unbearable. I immediately called this office since they have helped me so much in the past. I described the condition to the office manager and she helped me get an appointment right away! I was relieved that they took my situation seriously and were able to give me treatment the same day and got my problem under control by the next day. Thank you Dr Murakawa and Rebecca for going above and beyond to ensure my problem was solved.
