OMG!!! I (Nurse- Massage Therapist) Concur! I recently got all 3 simultaneously- thought I was crazy.
Mar 15, 2013 by Julie I am an RN and LMT FYI. I recently suffered a devastating breakup- which lead to 1st onset Asthma (common with grieving), I then got (always had a scant amt-right side only rash and touch of rare-asthma) horrible intrascapular rash-spread. I just always knew in my heart it was nerve related and not skin related or bra strap because it was always so pinpoint. Suddenly and simultaneously I got an unexplainable right elbow rash & worse "NP", not alleviated by antifungal or hydrocortisone or lotion. All 3 things simultaneosly-sudden onset, on an otherwise 100% healthy person. This explains alot. Thank you, I thought I was going crazy.
Love my dermatologist!
Feb 10, 2013 by Donya K. I Love my dermatologist!
Dr. Alai is so compassionate and really takes care of me. She has a lot of awards in the lobby and I agree with them all. Very pleased!
Fun to see!
Oct 18, 2012 by Jane M. I never mind coming in. You are fun to see.
Thank you!!
Aug 31, 2012 by Larry W. As patients, we are quick to complain if a treatment does not go well. On the other hand, as usually happens, the problem is solved and the patient is cured, we seem to take all that for granted.
Janet and I are very appreciative of your work on our behalf. We are very grateful for your skill and caring. We have been very fortunate to have doctors like you, Dr. Outhwaite, and Dr. Metrovski.
Thank you again for all of your work. Thank you for being you.
Sincerely,
LW
I am so much Better!
Aug 27, 2012 by ggsmith Their staff is the most friendly, welcoming staff and doctors I've ever dealt with. They are so warm and professional, and make the whole experience that much better. I was so impressed with the progress I was able to make after visiting them. All my questions were answered, and I feel a lot more confident and hopeful about the future. The office was easy enough to find. I will absolutely return. I had an amazing experience, and they were by far the best I've ever seen.
As good as it gets!
Aug 17, 2012 by Belinda B. Parking is really easy to find (free).
I had Dr. Alai who was super nice and professional. They have a lab there so they didn't charge me extra for lab check ups. And Dr. Alai is very good about confidentiality. I had a great experience and all the employees there were super friendly. Waiting room is really comfortable too, but I didn't have to wait very long while there.
The best
Jul 07, 2012 by Fran P. "My son saw you a few months ago and loved you. That is why I wanted to come here and see you. I am so happy with my care. I definitely just want to see you next time."
Really Helped my Itchy Back!
Jun 01, 2012 by spacey29 This is as good of dermatology care as it gets. My skin has never been better. After seeing countless other doctors, I was finally diagnosed with Nostalgia on my back- the natural treatment with accupuncture needles and the tens home device really helped me. I don't itch and am very thankful of my new dermatologists here. They are really the best and most competent I have seen.
Thank you for everything you have done for me.
The Best!

“Lauren is doing great! Her acne looks so good. My goal for her to take care of her skin has been met. She saw her local dermatologist in North carolina recently and she was great. Her acne has stayed clear since she left California. She is still using her nasal neosporin, and doing vacubrasion at home.”

“Just a quick update. First of all, thank you, thank you, and thank you. The cortisone shot shrunk the bump on my head and the Valtrex has stopped the swelling to the point that I’m almost recovered. I will stop taking the Valtrex tomorrow based on your recommendation. I will keep the remaining pills to stop any breakouts in the future. Let me know if I can help you in any way. You were my life saver.”

Dear Doctor,
“Thank you so much for the use of the pain reliever machine. I wanted to express my appreciation for letting me borrow it.”
“I did want to let you know that after using it for 2 weeks it did relieve the pain in my bumps but the second I took it off the pain was back.”
“Thank you for your time and advice, and I hope to continue in the near future.”
Sincerely,
Carly B.

I am so lucky I found you! Really, I don’t have anyone who has been so thorough and spends time with me. I am very happy I came here. Even the lung doctor didn’t spend more than a few minutes trying to figure out my problem.

” I have been to about 10 dermatologists from Northern and Southern California for my skin over the past and I have never had such a thorough dermatologist before. No one has diagnosed my skin cancers so early and found everything like you do. I am really happy I found you and am getting my wife in next week.”
