Dr. Carolin T. Penrose, MD

Very clean and professional looking office. Dr. Penrose had great bedside manner and seemed to care a bit more than other doctors. Definitely a good dermatologist on Staten Island.

Dr. Penrose is the best. What a blessing to have such an exceptional dermatologist on Staten Island whose excellence is exceeded by her kindness. Her staff is great, too.

Dr. Penrose is knowledgeable, kind, and patient, while her staff is always professional and helpful. I have seen her on a regular schedule for scans, as well as for emergencies, and I've never had a problem scheduling an appointment. I recommend her highly.

Dr Penrose is very knowledgeable, she is kind, thorough and takes her time. I never feel rushed. He staff is nice and her office is very clean and customer friendly. I am a nurse and I know that I am overly picky- I highly recommend her.

Best doctor in Staten Island!!! Dr. Penrose is professional, knowledgeable, and caring. Her office is clean and staff very friendly. I am so grateful that I don't have to travel to Manhattan to see a really good physician. Will definitely recommend her to family and friends.

The BEST dermatologist on Staten Island HANDS DOWN! As someone with very bad health anxiety, I often feel as though clinicians do not take into account the worry and anxiety many patients feel when they find something they believe is wrong or worrisome. NOT Dr.Penrose or her staff. They are the MOST patient and caring professionals around. I have been going to Dr.Penrose for about 2 years and I every single time I am treated with understanding and compassion. I simply cannot day enough good things about the staff here. If you need a dermatologist I highly recommend you see Dr.Penrose, you certainly won’t regret it!

Scheduled my appointment over a month ahead of time for today. As I walked in 5 minutes before my appointment, I saw waiting room full of patients. Was told I'll have to wait for at least an hour since there are still 5 patient before me. What is the point of making an appointment if they are never on time. Last time I had to wait over an hour just to get in to exam room, then she gave me a shot and again left from 20 min. I just left. Dr Penrose is a good doctor, but why can't she organize her office and appointment book? Would like to add, that Dr Penrose called me to apologize for the situation, which was very nice of her. I would give dr Penrose 5 stars as a doctor. If one day, she can organize her practice without the long wait I'll gladly come back.
