Always good care from Dr. Roberts. Thank you.
My first session wih Nichole Palomba was excellent. She was clear, to the point, and acted to remove and/or diagnose possible skin cancer.

Nicole is great, and I have had very good experiences with her with my care. She is thorough and conscientious. She went out of her way to make sure I was clear about the procedure I recently had. The office, however, is another story. I just went to my latest appointment with her and the office told me, upon arrival, that I didn’t have an appt. When I pressed them to explain why I had it in my calendar, they dug deeper and realized that I did have an appt. on the “old system” that hadn’t transferred over. You would think that someone would be in charge of checking to make sure there was consistency with the old and new system as they transferred over. But that was not the case. Also, instead of talking to Nicole and seeing if she could fit us in, especially since this was a follow up to the procedure, they just told us we would have to make new appointments. This was after we traveled 45 minutes to the appointment. The apology we got was “I see how it’s frustrating for you, but I hope you see how it’s frustrating for us.” That is not how this should work. There is no consequence for you disrupting my day, costing me time and money to get out there, with absolutely no real apology. Other family members have had similar experiences here. I would recommend Nicole, but I also hope that she finds a new practice to align herself with.
My appt was postponed again. I didn't see anyone
Always good care from Dr. Roberts. Thank you.

It's always a pleasure to see Dr. Roberts. She answers all questions. She is excellent at what she does. She is efficient and thorough.
Excellent as always. Although dr was running behind. I had a 10 am appointment and dr came in 1045.
Dr Roberts was thorough and helped eliminate anxiety involving the exam.
DR. ROBERTS IS ALWAYS PROFESSIONAL, PERSONAL, AND THOROUGH. ALSO TIMELY.
Dr Robert’s is always thorough and professional and has a great personality making the exam relaxing experience
Dr. Robert’s is a very thorough and compassionate physician. Her staff is is kind and helpful I would highly recommend her.
No waiting, with a courteous staff. Dr. Roberts is thorough and compassionate asking caring, thoughtful questions while completely leaving no skin unchecked throughout the exam! I always feel very satisfied when I leave my visit knowing that I am secure for another year. And should I notice anything unusual on my skin within that time period, Dr. Roberts will be sure to check things out in a timely manner. I’m very pleased with my dermatologist.
I am so fortunate I went to Dr Robert’s 3 years ago for a small spot on my leg. She biopsy it and it was metastatic malignant melanoma. Sh sent m toDana Farber right away. I have been going for3 years. I am free of melanoma after treatment and care. Dr Roberts saved my life
She is the best. Feel confident in her ability. Great personality.
Very professional and attentive to patients
Very good experience. Staff is friendly and Dr Roberts is very kind And knowledgeable. Would highly recommend for your Dermatological needs.
i have been going to Dr Roberts for 3 Years now. What distinguishes her from my past dermatologists is that each time I go she still treats my full body skin check with the thoroughness of a new patient. My appointments are always on time, no long waits because of over booking.
I through there was no hope for me until I came to see Dr. Roberts, I have seen a big improvement ,
Dr Roberts is very thorough and never rushes you. She is knowledgable and is willing to answer questions. My husband and I are lucky we were able to get in with Dr Roberts
Nichole was wonderful! Answered all my questions and made great suggestions for my treatment. Thank you!
Nicole was very thorough with respect to my annual visit and overall skin assessment.
I was very pleased with Nicole. She has a very pleasant personality, excellent “bedside manner” and explained everything clearly.
Dr. Roberts has been my Dermatologist for ~20 years, and I think the world of her. She is knowledgeable, compassionate and truly cares about her patients. She manages her schedule well, and the wait is very brief (5-10 mins max.) The Park Ave location is nice, but parking can be a real problem, particularly for handicap accessible. I can see how she and her staff would prefer this location and office; it's bright, open and roomy. They do a good job with time management and working with each other to support patients through their experience there. I'm thankful for Dr. Roberts.
I saw Nichole for the first time for my annual body scan. She was very professional and answered all my questions concerning different bumps on my body. She offered to set up an appointment to remove any if they were bothering me. Very satisfied.
I had a blue light treatment, the staff was very pleasant
Great Doctor
Dr. Roberts is a very caring and thorough professional. Over the years she has proven to be concerned with my overall health as well as my squamous cell cancer. Highly recommend her to everyone seeking treatment.
This was my first time seeing Dr. Roberts. She was so nice, attentive, and took the time to answer all the questions I had. Would definitely recommend.
Nicole is very knowledgeable and professional and this is coming from a nurse! Would highly recommend her!
Prompt on appointment. Easy to talk with.
Dr Roberts is not only highly professional but also personable. Her explanations are clear, her examinations are thorough, and she is very good doing simple procedures right in the office. I highly recommend her services.
