Services
Dr. Jean Buhac established a dermatology practice in Saratoga Springs, NY, about 20 years ago to provide residents from Schenectady, Albany, and throughout the Capital District with access to world-class medical and cosmetic dermatology services. Saratoga Dermatology continues to serve patients seeking comprehensive skincare treatments using state-of-the-art technology and techniques.
Before she became a renowned dermatologist in Saratoga Springs, NY, Dr. Jean Buhac actually considered pursuing a career in pathology and interviewed for a residency in that specialty. Ultimately, though, she believed that working in a lab wouldn't really feel like being a doctor. She spent about a year as a dermatologist at Albany Medical Center before opening Saratoga Dermatology in 1999.
When Saratoga Dermatology added a second board-certified dermatologist to serve its patients from Albany, Schenectady, and around Saratoga Springs, NY, they found the perfect fit in Dr. Jennifer Smith. Dr. Smith, a Mohs surgery specialist with an impressive track record of treating patients and teaching future dermatologists, joined our team in 2012.
Patients visiting Saratoga Dermatology for the first time are often surprised when they walk through the front door. Inside our modest, 8,000-square-foot brick building is an airy, modern practice with sleek wood floors and elegant yet comfortable decor that puts patients at ease.

Dr. Jean Buhac, a board-certified dermatologist who established the Saratoga Springs, NY, practice almost 20 years ago, designed the interior with the idea of having patients feel at home from the moment they walk in.The reception space is defined by clean lines and splashes of color, with our discreet treatment rooms located down the hallway.
Convenience is a priority for most patients when they're looking for a dermatologist in Albany, Schenectady, or another city near Saratoga Springs, NY. That's why Saratoga Dermatology offers our patients a secure, online method to make appointments and get prescriptions refilled, in addition to other features.

So bad!!! Never will I forget paying $100 because Dr. Buhac said my insurance wouldn’t cover a skin issue because it was cosmetic, when another dermatologist got it covered, agreed that it was NOT cosmetic, and also got me out of the pain that I was in!!

Extremely unprofessional and rude front desk staff. The facials use to be great when Erin was there. Now they aren’t worth your time nor the money. It should be a relaxing experience but you are rushed in and out. It’s sad that they treat a loyal patient who has been coming to them for over 10 years with such disregard.

Saratoga dermatology and spa exemplifies a patient centered experience. During these challenging times the staff and Dr. Buhac make the required protocol easy, caring and person. No stress or anxiety in this new normalcy. Thank you all.

I have seen Dr. Buhac in the past and she was wonderful. Since then I have been seeing a PA and have not been Very happy. Every time I call the office I seem to get someone who sounds as though I am bothering them. I don’t call very often Maybe one or two times a year. I have had several billing problems as well but never made an issue about it. I just wish when I called I could get someone pleasant. I think I will be trying a new office.

I have been a patient of Dr Buhac for over 20 years. I would recommend Saratoga Dermatology without hesitation. Whether it’s acne or a more serous problem Dr Buhac has always been courteous, kind, and caring. She always fits me in if I have an emergency and has always treated me with compassion and respect. She is not only a great Doctor but has been a consummate professional who gets results.

First time patient showed up 30 min before my appointment at 10am, receptionist ladies were very nice. The waiting room and patient rooms were very nice and homey feeling. Within 5 minutes of sitting down filling out paper work I was called in! I was shocked considering it was my first time there and I was early. The PA Bruce was very friendly! I was out by 1015 which was a record for any doctor appointment I've been too! Overall it was a nice visit and highly recommend Saratoga Dermatology to everyone!

I have had other services performed by various Dermatologists and Dr. Bruhac by far does the best job. I have been very pleased with the results I have obtained by seeing her compared to others. I highly recommend going to see her, she is extremely talented and very good at what she does.

My sons and I have all been patients of Dr. Buhac and her staff. We have seen her for everything from acne to skin cancer concerns to Botox treatments. In every way this practice has been attentive and reliable. My son suffered from terrible acne. We tried several treatments until we got it right. He is grateful to be acne-free! I had a skin cancer "scare" and asked to be seen right away. The staff at the front desk understood my concerns and got me in within 48 hours. I was so grateful. Time and again, Dr. Buhac and her practice have proven to be in tune with the varied dermatological needs of

I just wanted to write a quick "THANK YOU" for Michelle, the RN at Saratoga Derm. She is absolutely fabulous and very clearly cares about the results of her patients. She has wonderful bedside manner and truly took the time to understand my concerns. I am really thankful and she helped make my experience great!

The staff was very friendly, cheerful and professional. Both the nurse and Dr Buhac took time to explain different options which were available to achieve the results I were hoping for and listened to concerns I had. Dr Buhac also took time to skillfully ensure filler was placed in the right amount in just the right places. I am in my sixties and when I look in the mirror now; I see signs of aging reversed with a more youthful natural appearance. I highly recommend Saratoga Dermatology and Medical Spa Dr Buhac and her team!
