Osei-Tutu Dermatology & Hair Restoration — Local services in New York

I don't usually write reviews, but I had to for this doctor ! I had suffered from a skin connection called Seborrheic Dermatitis for months, all the while I had no idea what it was. My skin was getting very light in the center, dark around the perimeter and I was concerned it was due to increased sun exposure since I had been traveling a lot. I've been to 5 dermatologist prior to Dr Tuti who all gave me different opinions and it was quite frustrating. I was prescribed face washes, some told me there was nothing they could do, another told me to get a chemical peel etc. I finally trusted my gut and scheduled with Dr. Tuti. She was booked for a few days (most good providers are) but it was worth the wait & worth every penny. She took the time to analyze my skin and told me exactly what it was and how to treat it. Not only that, she let me know that the prescriptions and suggestions by the other providers would have made my conditions worse as some of those ingredients would aggravate my skin. Three months later, my skin tone evened back out I haven't had a flare up and I'm back to feeling the confidence I once had. Her office is very clean and the staff are friendly and helpful. Dr Tuti is now my forever dermatologist! Thank you very much...

Dr. Osei Tu-Tu is the best dermatologist and God's gift to her patients. She is very professional, smart, and compassionate. She's very attentive to her patient's treatment regimen, and if she notices no progress after a reasonable period of time, or that progress has diminished, then she will immediately change the regimen, rather than waste the patient's time and money hoping for the best. Treatment plans take time to work and some never work. Eveyone doesn't respond positively to the same thing. Therefore, expect the possibility of trial and error; you just have to be patient and hang in there, unless the condition is at the point where she is unable to help you. However, she is very honest and will let you know if she's unable to help. Upon meeting her the first time, you'll notice that she's very young but don't be discouraged. Trust me, you would think that she has been practicing for many years beyond her age. If you're having any dermatological issues, I HIGHLY recommend this doctor. My issues have improved tremendously. I also want to add that her assistant Brittany is very helpful, nice and a pleasure to interact...

I really love and respect Dr. Osei-Tutu and her passion for helping women of color restore their confidence. She's very patient, attentive, has excellent bedside manner and doesn't push you into any expensive services (in fact, her favorite recommendation is something free: TIME!). However, her front desk staff are unfortunately a poor reflection of her office and the standards she sets. The communication is always extremely poor and sometimes combative, especially from Natasha, (if needing to reschedule, running a few mins late, needing questions answered before spending thousands of dollars, etc.). I've not once gotten an apology for any inconveniences or discrepancies and they make it really difficult to reach the doctor unless you're paying over $100 to see her in person (and good luck with getting that appointment any time soon). As a person who has been a patient since January, I feel like I deserve a little more respect with regards to my time and sensitivity with regards to my needs. Thus far, the only person I can compliment is Brittany. She seems genuinely nice/helpful. But she is rarely the person that I am...
