As someone who works in the hospital it was thrilling, refreshing, and comforting to go to an appointment at Dr.Lish’s office. Her and her team go above and beyond with their safety measures and you can see how hardly they all work to keep juggling their own health but the health of their patients. They even went to make sure the waiting room was cleared out before you exit your appointment. Dr Lish is of course also a wonder and warm family physician, she sees everyone from my grandparents to my siblings for a reason. I highly recommend them if you are looking for a dermatologist.

My family and I have been patients of Dr. Lish for many years. She is an outstanding and compassionate doctor who takes excellent care of her patients. She is thorough and makes sure you understand everything you need to do to take care of yourself. Her office staff is helpful, kind, and informative as well. I cannot say enough positive things about the care you receive. I highly recommend Dr. Lish!

I have been seeing this physician over the past few years and have a few bad experiences with her and her staff . I felt she was adequate to treat me for dermatological issues so I continued with her as a patient due to the convenient proximity to my house and job. Today I went in to see her she immediately let me know I hadn't been there in a year. I felt that was a reference to not seeing me enough, why my skin condition was under control. Then she asked why I was there when I told her renew RX and I need a letter to substantiate a condition she has treated me for over these past years as

The doctor is great! However the front staff is ridiculously unhelpful and rude! I called because I had an emergency and Margie basically told me she couldn't help me. She had also rescheduled an appointment I had to a later date because she wasn't "sure" if the doctor would be in. Turns out the doctor was in... and when I started complaining SHE HUNG UP ON ME!

I have been with Dr. Lish for three years and have never been happier, she is always attentive and addresses all my concerns. I now have a skin care routine, and my face has never looked better, her products are AMAZING. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, they do their best to accommodate me and my busy schedule.

Dr Lish is incredible! I’ve seen her for both medical and cosmetic procedures and every time she is incredibly patient and consultative! She takes the time to make sure she understands your history and needs, and makes you feel comfortable. Can’t recommend Dr. Lish enough if you’re looking for a great dermatologist on Long Island!

My recent visit to Dr Lish was very thorough and pleasant. I had come in for a terrible rash that Ive had for a while and previously saw 2 other Dermatologists with no relief. Dr Lish was right on point with medicines she prescribed and tests. She explained my condition to me so that I could understand. Her staff was extremely nice and helpful in booking my follow up visits. Everyone made me feel very comfortable. I even treated myself to a much needed sunscreen with moisturizer, only to find out she has her very own product line.... I'm thrilled my family and I now have an excellent Dermatologist

I'm not sure if she's good or not.
I made an apt for my daughter to have a skin check, arrived early and filled out all of the paperwork for the very businesslike and unfriendly office staff only to have them then ask why I was there and inform me I would have to make another apt since she doesn't do skin checks at night. Not sure why the office staff never mentioned that when I made the apt. They offered to have her look at my daughter's back, which they would have charged for as well as forcing me to make another apt.
There are other dermatologist offices with actual customer
