I would like to thank Dr. B for this amazing experience. My son has been suffering with severe eczema for about 18 months, I tried almost everything and nothing would work. Finally I decided to search for a dermatologist and came across Young Skin on the google search. I honestly felt like this would be my last option because nothing was working. I couldnt sleep at night because my son was inching so bad. (I even had to visit the ER because of this) and was very uncomfortable for him to sleep thru the night. Finally met her, she has an amazing soul. Beautiful inside and out. From a scale of

I brought my 5 month old son in to Dr. Latanya after two misdiagnosis of my son having a yeast infection on his skin from his pediatrician. He had a head to toe rash, it was super red. Hyperpigmentation would be an understatement. After our first visit, not only did she diagnose him correctly (he had cradle cap that spread to his entire body) but she only did so after asking us very thorough and specific questions. She took her time and actually valued our input as his parents. After a detailed conversations on routine, products, family history and more, she diagnosed him and formulated a treatment

Dr. Benjamin has been wonderful. My daughter had been treated by other dermatologist that weren't able to correctly diagnose what was going on. She immediately recognized, diagnosed, and appropriately treated her. We'd gone through close to 10 different topicals of which none worked. She was also very caring and has great bedside manner and most importantly was very punctual and respective of our time. I couldn't be any happier with her as a provider.

Amazing Dermatologist! Dr. Latanya Benjamin was a pleasure to meet and our 3 year old daughter loved her and was super comfortable in both the space and with her exam. The doctor was able to put us at ease with our concerns and offered great advice for monitoring our area of concern. My husband is a physician as well and he was also very impressed with the experience and Dr. Benjamins' bedside manner. He will be referring patients to her immediately.
