What Rachel's patients have to say:

Google Reviews • Forefront

Rachel is so engaging and professional. I trust her completely and I’m very happy that I am able to come back to her with my dermatological concerns.

Google Reviews • Forefront

Excellent visit. The doc provided the main service I was there for, suggested solutions to other issues I brought up, and did not try to sell me on any cosmetic extras I wasn't interested in.

Google Reviews • Forefront

Dr Serrano couldn’t be more personable. While each visit is direct and to the point she’s not like some doctors that just make you feel like you’re a number. Highly recommend. I dealt with a skin issue for most of my adult life and she was able to help me take care of it in just a few weeks and it’s resolved for good.

I saw Dr. Rachel Serreno on August 24, 2026 — professional, attentive, and efficient. Her staff were friendly and got me checked the same day; Dr. Serreno accurately diagnosed my issue, prescribed a facial cream, and explained the treatment clearly. Very satisfied — highly recommend.

Check in was simple, Dr Rachel and assistant were friendly, corteous and professional!

She provided a very thorough exam and was genuinely attentive to my questions and concerns. Anything that appeared concerning was removed, and she took the time to explain each step. My previous dermatologist overlooked several skin changes, but she caught them immediately. She was friendly, reassuring, and made the whole experience comfortable. Her assistant was also extremely helpful and supportive.
