All of the dermatologists I've met at UCSF have been great-Dr Kusari was no exception.

The doctor was great. I would definitely see him again. He left kind of suddenly, so I wasn't even sure we were finished. But that was the only thing I didn't like.

I appreciated that the doctor remembered me and our discussion from the previous year
