I have been seeing Dr. Palep for over 10 years. Dr. Palep and her staff are exceptional. I recommend and send all of my family and friends to see her. She also treats my two daughters and husband. She sets the bar very high for dermatologists. She takes her time, sits down next to you and explains options to treat all levels of issues and offered me options to screening and prevention. This was very important to me and my family. The office is professional and responsive and has been consistently so since my very first visit. She also has hours in the evening to accommodate those not able to break from school or work in the daytime.

Dr. Sapna Palep is hands down the best dermatologist I’ve ever been to. She is diligent and never rushes appointments, and treats her patients like they are long time friends or family members. She picks up on things that other doctors have easily missed. I truly feel that she invests everything in her patients and CARES about the whole person. If only I could find a GP who was as personable and diligent... I can’t recommend Dr. Palep highly enough!

Dr. Palep is AMAZING! You’ll recognize her from all her TV show appearances, she is a celebrity dermatologist. She literally fixed my skin in a snap when I couldn’t figure out for years how to improve it and had bought every product out there. She’s so knowledgeable, warm and friendly - even when she’s got a packed waiting room, she takes the time to connect with me and understand my concerns. Plus, her staff are extremely professional, courteous and responsive, always working around my busy schedule. RECOMMEND!!!

Dr. Palep and her team are the absolute best. I have been seeing Dr. Palep for over 10 years and my experience has always exceeded my expectations. Dr. Palep always provides the most current scientific medical approach to combat my dermatological and cosmetic concerns. In addition to her medical approach, her bedside manner is unlike most doctors. She always takes the time to explain her thoughts so you thoroughly understand and are comfortable. The offices are also exceptionally well run, meticulous and efficient. I highly recommend Dr. Palep and Spring Street Dermatology.

Dr. Palep and team are simply the best! I’ve only had positive experiences over the last 4 years I have been seeing her. She always takes great care of me and makes sure to spend the time to explain what she’s doing and what she recommends. I’ve recommended her to all my friends and family and they’ve all had similar experiences. On top of all that, the offices are clean, bright and spacious, which is super important right now.
