• Forefront Dermatology
I've been seeing Dr. Gin for over 10 years as I'm fair skinned and had melanoma in 2014 (as well as another chronic medical issue). Luckily the cancer was caught at stage 0, for which I am immensely grateful, and she referred me to an excellent Mohs surgeon for that. She always takes a good amount of time with me, listens attentively to any issues I'm experiencing or questions that I have. She is warm, knowledgeable, and professional. I recommend Iris Gin, MD, wholeheartedly.

The first time I saw Dr. Gin was for a chemical reaction on my ears from my hairdresser a week before my wedding (I know!) - she helped me totally heal my ears before the wedding. I’ve seen her for annual skin cancer checks and she is very thorough, and she has helped me with acne and skin care. I’ve never felt like she has pushed any products - she prescribed a medication for acne that my insurance covers. I will continue to be a loyal patient!

Agree with Jaqueline. My son has been seeing her for acne. We always wait over 30 mins for 5 mins of her time and are told to by very expensive products which are not covered by insurance. The products have not worked btw

Went to see her for an acne consultation-waited for 45 min and she sat down with me for 5 min total. She quickly glanced over me and suggested her line of acne products (none of which are covered by insurance) without actually diagnosing me or giving me any treatment options. Her creams and face wash was about $100 out of pocket. Felt like her team was pressuring me to purchase them and almost like a scam. Will not be going back
