I like that Dr. Fogel is very attentive and thorough. I would highly recommend recommend him. He did a great job with my MOHS surgery on my nose.
Charming and friendly as always. Prompt and efficient. The office staff are also very professional without being too stuffy. I look forward to my next visit.

Great experience with dr. And staff

Good
As always, Dr. O treated my daughter with the utmost compassion and care. He listens, takes my parental concerns to heart and has the best bedside manner of any doctor we have ever encountered and we are so thankful for him!
Quick and efficient, DR O is excellent
I used to see Dr. Lerner and when he was retiring I ventured out to a new office. Although the doctor I was seeing was great, I found the office to be unorganized and not easy to deal with. I came back to APDS and I’ve been seeing Dr. Fogel. He’s absolutely amazing! I’m so happy with my experience returning to this office and with Dr. Fogel. He has helped me get my confidence back by prescribing me just what I need to clear my skin! Aside from Dr. Fogel, everyone in this office is great. I wouldn’t recommend another practice. :)
First time meeting Dr Fogel yesterday. I was very impressed with him, both his knowledge and his very cheerful attitude. Couldn't help but smile on my way out. His assistants all equally polite.
Great experience! Dr. Fogel is very kind and gentle all while being informative. The office staff is also fantastic!
Excellent
The doctor was kind, courteous, professional, and I believe with all my heart went above and beyond being thorough.
Kind, respectful, friendly service.
Wonderful! Doctor O is so great!!!
Great
Dr.O is always very caring and answers all of my questions. I will always be indebted to him for helping me control my psoriasis.
On-time, curtieous, and honest; always a pleasure.
Great office
Dr. Oestreicher and his staff are efficient and attentive. The Doctor takes the time to get to know me and I don’t feel rushed or like he is rushing. Always a good experience.
First time bringing my son here. Dr. Fogel and his team were so understanding and accommodating to my son’s issue. Definitely will be bringing my family here if/when necessary.
It was great
