I was a patient for many years... Finally made the switch. I was a Psoriasis patient... 15 years.. Dr Uyttendaele was Terrible. He hardly ever came close to me and very few times actually looked at my skin... most always sat across the examining room... On one occasion he went on vacation with no Dr filling in.. My script expired and without medication my psoriasis came back so much worse Also Don’t see this Dr...

Dr. Kezis should have removed a tumor on my leg. Instead, he cut it in half for a biopsy. The wound didn't heal and then got infected. He told me that I shouldn't bother getting it removed because it would grow back. 2 weeks later, had to have major surgery with a plastic surgeon who was stunned by Dr. Kezis' ineptness. BTW Dr. Kezis billed my insurance company $900 for that biopsy. It took me 1 month to heal from the surgery, an operation I really never needed should Dr. Kezis didn't botch up the biopsy. I only recommend hi... read more

I was a patient of Dr. Kezis for many years. Specifically I went every year for a top to bottom skin cancer check. (I lived about half my life in very sunny climates.) Always did a through job and explained if I had questions about certain spots. Twice in many years took care of 2 areas that could possibly turn malignant. Biopsies showed no issues yet. Would still go yearly except I moved 1000+ miles away.

Dr U’s congenial & perfectly competent. My issue was with billing.BEWARE: the practice as a whole is REALLY expensive, & accounting-wise, opaque. They seem to create charges randomly- like a nightmarish home contractor. For example, I was billed $200 for my appt, i hadn’t been in for a while($150 fee otherwise). It’s NOT like extra $50 fee got me an overall skin check or something. Was out of his office in @6 mins.My bill...$333! Unannounced biopsy +$235! OUCH Go elsewhere if possible!

Absolutely no compassion, empathy, or "bedside manner". Very pompous and made me feel like he was doing me a favor by seeing me. Did not thoroughly explain my condition, and spent no more than five minutes with me on all my appointments. Based on my experience, I honestly don't feel that he cares about his patients and is more like a robot than a doctor. I'm a senior citizen and have been to lots of doctors in my lifetime... this one gets a thumbs down!!!

I was lucky enough to choose Dr Kezis 34 years ago in Poughkeepsie when I had a mole that started to itch. While I was in the office he noticed a spot on my calf that turned out to be melanoma. He removed quite a large chunk and gave me the choice of either a skin graft, or a new "butterfly" procedure where no skin graft was necessary. I chose the latter, even though he told me it would be the first time he performed that procedure. Well here I am 34 years later, hardly a scar, and very lucky.

Dr. Zeltser is one of the best doctors I have ever visited. He is kind, kowledgable, and has great bedside manner. I would highly recommend any of my close family and friends to see him for thier dermatological needs or skin cancer surgeries!

Wish I had read reviews before setting up appt with this location. Very disappointed and I've never had a doctor or a PA be that extremely sarcastic or rude, and to make your health issue feel so unimportant. Maybe it's time for retirement if you have that big of an attitude problem. Overconfidence in your 'professional' knowledge/experience and rushing people out of the office without an agreeable solution or any solution for that matter is a waste of my time.
