David Suhocki has to be one of the best PA’s I’ve dealt with. Super thorough and knowledgeable. He’s very down to earth and has a great personality. Highly recommended for those patients who are looking for realistic answers to their diagnosis.

Blanca T.

Very comfortable

I have been coming here for years. Feel very comfortable with the exam I get. This is such a preventative exam that everyone should do it annually.

MIKE H.

I highly recommend

The Raw truth…… I am asked often about my skin regimen and I have to tell you it’s all over the place. I am 42 years “young” and 99.9% of the time I leave my house in sweat pants and in NO makeup. For years I never washed my face before bed, put on any moisturizer or really did anything as a regimen….. That all changed a couple of years ago when I started to see the wrinkles on my face and the breakouts were happening all the time. I mean, I felt like a teenager because my breakouts were all the time. What saved me? Iole Punzo Saved me! Her knowledge in advanced medical aesthetics is what got my skin where it is. Iole takes the time to educate you on what you need and why you need it. She specialized in skin care, injectables, fillers, laser treatments, hydro facials and much much more. Her team at Advanced Dermatology Center P.C. will make you feel like a million bucks, even on your worst day. They are incredibly knowledgeable and are not there just to push a product. Iole and her team want you to feel comfortable and want you to ask as many questions as you can, they spend the time with you to make sure you leave happy and with the complete understanding of your regimen. I can’t thank Iole enough for helping me get my skin back to where I feel beautiful. Thank you Iole!!!!!!! If you are looking for a team like this, I highly recommend Iole!!!!!!
