What Is Different About kalon Dermatology

kalon Dermatology is an independent, physician-led practice with three neighborhood offices across Brooklyn and Staten Island. Here is what is actually different about how we work, and the proof behind each claim.

Board-Certified Dermatologists

Your care is overseen by board-certified dermatologists certified by the American Board of Dermatology: Dr. Michael Gladstein, named a Castle Connolly Top Doctor for the NY metro area from 2005 to 2009, with 43 years in practice, and Dr. David Biro, a Columbia MD and Oxford PhD who teaches dermatology as an Associate Clinical Professor at SUNY Downstate. Across the team, more than 75 years of combined experience treating skin, hair, and nails.

You Pick Your Provider and Stay With Them

Patients here stay with the same provider for years. One patient put it this way:

"I have been seeing Rita, PA for over 10 years. She has helped cure me of my acne with holistic methods when nothing else worked. ... She also treats all my children with their eczema needs."Sanela Redze

You can request your provider when you book, and they will know your skin and remember your history.

Straight answers, and no upselling

Our providers tell you what you need and what you don't. In patients' own words:

"he will recommend whats best and won't try to sell you bs"Tatyana Andryushenko

"he makes sure to give me his professional advice, without ever pushing me to do more than necessary"Danielle Sandler

Every cosmetic treatment starts with a consultation, and you see clear pricing before any procedure begins.

We run on time

"the staff is very nice, very responsive, everything happens on time"TINA A Tin

"The doctor was very helpful, he answered all my questions and concerns, did not rush me through my appointment."Esther

We reserve appointments for urgent skin concerns, so call the office directly if something cannot wait.

We Treat You in English, Russian, or Spanish

Our team sees patients in English, Russian, and Spanish, so you can describe what's going on with your skin in the language you actually think in.

We Accept Most Major Insurance Plans, and Our Billing Is Honest

We accept most major insurance plans and will verify your benefits before your visit if you call ahead. CareCredit financing with plans up to 12 months is available for qualified patients. And billing works the way it should. One patient wrote:

"First time in my life medical office return co-pay."Raisa Chernina
