Elissa Gropen, MD

As a UCR student, I'm so grateful for being referred to Dr. Gropen and her staff to treat my keloid issue and to be prescribed with a new acne treatment. The staff members in her office are quick and welcoming. I came in twice for treating my keloid and to follow up with it. The treatment is working well, and I was able to tone down my acne through Epiduo (clindamycin wasn't working for me). Dr. Gropen is patient to explain or answer any questions about the condition and treatment process. She's also very kind and understanding if you want to change to any alternative treatments for acne. I'm pleased with the prompt service from her and the staff!

Was super nervous about going to my first appointment here but it went amazingly! Had to arrive 15 minutes earlier than my time to fill out paperwork and was seen right after doing so. Doctor came in almost right away as well and was very attentive to my concerns. I plan on continuing going here if needed :)

Excellent care and communication, I never felt rushed during my appointments and Dr Gropen was super kind and empathetic to my concerns. Wait times aren’t long at all and overall had a great time with all the staff.
