Maleki Comron, MD

Dr Maleki is awesome. He is a great physician with a great bedside manner. He has been able to help me with a complex medical problem.

I have found Dr. Maleki and his office staff to be very helpful. I had a quickly spreading issue on a Saturday. I left a voicemail for Dr. Maleki and he called back within minutes, did an accurate diagnoses via phone, called in a prescription and my issue was under control that day. Had I waited for Monday I could have had irreparable damage. BTW — I called another derm I visit more for cosmetic treatments, and she simply said call on Monday and perhaps there would be an opening. A good doc recognizes the urgency of a situation and acts, even on a weekend. I’m definitely staying with Maleki.

My first and last visit w Dr Maleki was very disappointing. After waiting ⁴⁵⁄₁ hour to be taken to the exam room, i waited another 15 mins (the nurse who was very kind and apologetic) kept telling me he would be right in. I saw him for about 2 mins, during which time he gave me a RX. I tried to ask some question but between his rather heavy accent and his hurry to move on, none of my questions were answered. The final straw was him snapping at the kind nurse blaming her for him being behind schedule. Needless to say… Won’t be returning to this rude Dr.

Not sure why other reviews aren’t great — Dr. Maleki was wonderful for my husband’s visit. He took time to explain everything and made my husband feel very cared for. He arrived early and Dr. Maleki actually was able to take him in early which was very convenient. I plan to see him next myself.

My experience with Maleki’s office has been much, much better than the other reviews. I’ve brought my kids with various skin conditions, as well my annual skin cancer visits and had a mole removed. The staff has always been very polite and Dr Maleki is patient with me and addresses all of my concerns. His diagnosis has always been correct. He will continue as our family dermatologist.

The two stars are for Dr Malaki who has always been kind and helpful with biopsies and exams. His nurses are also very sweet. I wish I could give more stars but I feel my other skin care concerns are overlooked and downplayed.
I also got tired of the endless waits to be seen and his very rude receptionist. I have called and requested appointments, results and the like and I’m always met with curt answers and the phone being slammed down afterwards.
After 7 years I’m not sorry to say I’m moving on. I have put off my regular derm exams too long because I didn’t want to deal with this place and the front desk. Talk to your friends and family for a referral instead. A doctor is only as good as the rest of his team in a patients eyes.

I would advise against visiting Dr. Maleki’s office, I found him to be rude and uninterested in my skin, after looking at me for about a minute he gave me a prescription for antibiotics, told me not to use lotion on my super dry skin and said to come in three months later. Under a month later I had a severe allergic reaction that was possibly attributed to the antibiotics and my face was peeling because it was so dry. After leaving several messages and talking to his –EXTREMELY rude– secretary I got a message from one of the girls who works at the front desk –not him– telling me that I must not be using the medication correctly, the directions were «rub it on your face» and that my face would stop peeling if I just kept not using any lotion. I asked if I should come I sooner because the only reason I was supposed to wait three months was too see if the antibiotics that I was taken off of by my other doctor-​because of the allergic reaction– would work, I was snapped at repeatedly by the lady at the front until she hung up quickly. Nothing ever cleared up and I received a message from his, again very, very rude secretary, telling me that I owed money even though at the time of my last visit I had been told I was squared up.
There are many talented, kind and wonderful dermatologists in TO and Dr. Maleki is not one of them.

I was very excited to see Dr. Maleki after some reviews I had read to him online, however I left with very bad experience.
When Dr. Maleki came in, 45 SECONDS (yes. SECONDS) later he gave me a prescription for a tropical cream. I had to even tell him «you didn’t even look at my face.» He responded, «I see it from here. Heres your prescription.»
Well I thought that was bad until…
I get my co-​pay $ 35. I called the office to let them know that I felt he hadn’t deserved my hard working $ 35. They didn’t answer.
Three months later, I get a phone call from a receptionist. She told me about my outstanding co-​pay. I told her I didn’t feel like the Doctor should get it but I would pay anyways.
Her response?
Laughing «that’s impossible. you’re lying.» I was floored. She assumed I was lying so I wouldn’t pay the bill, even though I had told her I would. To which she refused to give me her name nor let me talk to someone else.
Extremely rude and unprofessional. I’ve never been insulted that much by a doctors office in my life.
NEVER AGAIN. STAY AWAY.
