Advanced Dermatology and Laser Institute of Seattle

I began visiting Dr. Green about a year and a half ago and am overjoyed with the results! I struggled with moderate acne issues for about five years and had visited two dermatologists prior to Dr. Green, neither of which produced any significant results. Within about a month of my first visit with Dr. Green my skin was clearer than it had been in years and my acne had almost completely healed. The regimen that he prescribed to me is affordable, simple and has proven to be highly effective.
Dr. Green is incredibly experienced and knowlegdable and it was clear to me from the beginning that he is truly passionate about what he does. He as well as the rest of the staff are extremely knowledgeable and have been nothing but helpful in my experience.

These guys are just going to rip you off. I visited them for a very mild Acne and was prescribed about 220 $ worth of products. Also, they charged me about 238 $ for outpatient visit. This was just a consultation which is usually free everywhere else. I would avoid this. Three stars for the doctor who was very experienced.
I wouldn’t recommend to go here for mild skin problems. Its highly overpriced.

After suffering all my life from hyperhidrosis in my hands, I thought I would have to spend the rest of my life always feeling anxious about shaking someone’s hand and other social situations. It was only after I became a patient of Dr. Greene that my condition has dramatically improved. I received Botox injections in my hands and while it wasn’t the most comfortable experience; I went home pain free and more importantly with dry hands! I can shake someone’s hand with confidence and without anxiety. It really has been life changing! Additionally, Dr. Greene has treated me for adult hormonal acne. As a woman over 30, it’s not something I thought I would still have to manage. My treatment includes a Hydrafacial, which has really transformed my skin. I have received many compliments on how great my skin looks. Dr. Greene is truly amazing and his staff are very kind and professional. He is the best dermatologist I’ve ever been a patient of because his treatments work!

This is not a review for the Doctor, but for the facility. Firstly, the receptionist got my date of appointment wrong. When she finally made changes for my appointment, I could not actually be there! I had booked an appointment with Dr Greene and arrived at the address for my scheduled appointment. Unless you already know the address, this place is very difficult to find. The GPS took me to a different location. The receptionist/​Assistant acknowledged that GPS does not get their address right but could not give me the directions!!! I was circling around the area for a good 20 minutes before she said «you’re late, you can’t come.» She did not know where her office was! It was a nightmare to get in all the traffic up there and then very disappointing for not being able to meet the doctor.

I went to Dr. Greene’s office for the first time last week and I am still WOWED by how fantastic the experience was.
The goodness started when I called and made an appointment with Caitlin, the Front Office Manager. She was very kind about answering all of my questions and helping me find an appointment time that would fit my busy schedule.
When the day of my appointment arrived I was pretty nervous– I’m not generally a big fan of ‘going to the doctor’, but just the ambiance of the office was incredibly soothing. This is a really beautiful establishment! I was called for my appointment in short time– no endless whiling away in the waiting room!
When Dr. Greene came into the room I felt immediately at ease. He has an incredibly calm demeanor with a gentle sense of humor. Of course, the most important thing is that he really knows his stuff! I made an appointment in the hopes of having a brief surgical procedure done, and not only was he able to quickly take care of it, but Dr. Greene used advanced techniques and top-​of-​the-​line equipment to make it almost completely painless!
Dr. Greene personally called me today to tell me the results of the procedure. Most of the time when a doctor says ‘I’ll call with the results.’ I assume that a medical technician will call– which is totally fine– but it gave me positive feelings that the doctor himself called to check in.
If you’re nervous (or even if you’re not!) about seeing a doctor for any dermatological issues, I HIGHLY recommend visiting Dr. Greene. I wouldn’t even consider seeing a different dermatologist in the future.

I have been suffering from a pretty severe case of facial hyperhidrosis for about the last 15 years, and in that time I’ve been to around a dozen doctors. I tried alpha blockers, beta blockers, SSRIs and a bunch of other drugs, but nothing seemed able to relieve me of this plague of sweat. And what a plague it was! The simplest activities, like a dinner out at a restaurant, would cause my head/​face to sweat so profusely that it would look as though I’d just run a marathon. And stressful activities like a job interview were becoming all but impossible.
To say the least, I was at an all-​time low point when I first made an appointment to see Dr. Greene. He immediately assured me that there were a bunch of treatment options available, and after an initial prescription for Glycopyrrolate (which is pretty wonderful, bar the dry mouth) we eventually decided to give the Botox treatment a try.
That was three weeks ago, and the results have been unbelievable! Finally, a treatment that REALLY works! For the first time that I can remember, my head and forehead are just not able to produce sweat anymore. It’s absolutely miraculous.
I can’t say enough good things about the Advanced Dermatology team and Dr. Greene. If you are suffering from hyperhidrosis, I strongly recommend you give them a call.

Dr Greene has been my doctor for the past year and I am so grateful for his care.
I was referred by my primary care provider for biopsy of a suspicious mole. The clinic is beautiful and welcoming. Dr Greene and his staff were exceptionally supportive and of me during and after my biopsy. Thankfully, my mole was removed (with absolutely no pain) and I am well.
Given my history of sun exposure/​sunburns, Dr Greene recommended yearly skin checks. This recommendation has meant more to me recently as a close family member (also with a lot of sun exposure) has recently been diagnosed with advanced stage melanoma. I feel confident that Dr Greene has the tools, patience and experience to monitor me over the years.
Dr Green also has a cosmetic practice. As a bonus, I asked him to apply Botox for both cometic reasons and for daily tension headaches. I was thrilled to be completely relieved of headaches for 6 months after his careful and artful injections. Of course, having reduced wrinkle and frown lines is wonderful too!
My skin and I feels taken care of here. I thank Dr Greene and his staff for their attention to detail and kind hearts.

I have never written a review on Unilocal but Dr. Greene and his staff at Advanced Dermatology and Laser Institute of Seattle deserve all five stars. I went to see Dr. Greene because of my rosacea. I had pretty much given up on having a normal looking face. On my first visit I was warmly greeted by the staff. They went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and a part of the family. Dr. Greene set me up with a plan to use a specialized laser to battle my rosacea. Well, two treatments in my face is GREATLY improved. I also got botox to relax the worry lines between my eyes. It’s like a miracle. It is amazing how something so small can take years off your face! You cannot go wrong here. Dr. Greene takes special care to listen, explain and reassure. If you have any dermatological needs, this is the place to go. Medical and cosmetic! Thank you, Dr. Greene, for changing my life!

I rarely write reviews on Unilocal,and only do so when I truly believe in the business I am advocating. If you are looking for a skincare clinic, STOP NOW and come here! I trust this clinic completely to give perfect results, and have been amazed with my experience here so far.
1) This clinic is staffed with very friendly and personable staff members. No one treats you as an interchangeable patient and they each take time to genuinely get to know you. It’s truly a wonderful atmosphere to put one at ease!
2) Dr. Greene has no intentions of coercing patients into treatments, or of rushing people in and out. He always takes time to be very attentive, and will listen to any concerns. He also has unique insight into skincare, combining naturopathic philosophies with modern medical research.
Here is an anecdote from my experience:
I came to the clinic with severe cystic acne. Dr. Greene prescribed for me Accutane and has been walking me through the treatment (I am on my second month) I asked him if becoming vegetarian might have had some effect on my acne, and he described his research on the effects of diet and nutrition on the skin. I explained that I prefer natural, holistic methods and that I was fearful of taking such strong medication. He was was very generous with his time in explaining to me the exact mechanisms of how the medication works, ensuring me its safety, and describing his own personal research into how nutrition affects the skin. During our conversation, he revealed to me that whey protein causes terrible inflammatory acne, and I told him that I have been drinking protein shakes everyday for over a year as a part of a weight-​lifting diet. Without this conversation and Dr. Greene’s extensive knowledge, I would have never guessed this could have been a contributing factor and would have gone on chugging protein for days on end! He gave me insight for a targeted treatment that other doctors had not shown me (many gave me a general treatment that had no effect).
Dr. Greene’s knowledge of holistic and rigorous medical treatments is a great combination! I am so glad I found this clinic. It is definitely a ‘diamond in the rough’ of the skincare world. It is rare to find a place that is not looking to make money off of you, make you feel insecure and bully you into treatments, and has such an open and tolerant atmosphere. Thank you to Dr. Greene’s team!

I have gone to Advanced Dermatology Seattle several times, both for medical conditions and for the cosmetic services. Dr. Stephan Greene is an incredible doctor. My appointments with him were so thorough and never rushed. He made me feel so comfortable and took as much time as needed to properly diagnosis my derm issues and prescribe the appropriate treatments. Thankfully, the treatments have worked and my issues resolved quickly.
Dr. Greene also has a cosmetic derm practice and is aided by his amazing nurse, Erin. She does some of the procedures, under his guidance. They are very knowledgable about all the different options to rejuvenate and tighten skin around the face and neck. I have seen great results so far from the fillers and am starting to see the longer term results from the skin tightening treatments. I would definitely recommend Advanced Dermatology for medical and cosmetic dermatology.

Dr. Greene is the kind of doctor that one hopes for, but rarely finds.
While my parents were visiting Seattle, my dad noticed that my mom had some weird lumps on her leg. I knew Dr. Greene from a different context, and knew he was a kind and caring person, as well as an experienced and respected dermatologist with many years of experience, so even though I hadn’t used his services myself, I felt very comfortable recommending his clinic. I went with my parents to the appointment.
My mom has dementia, and she was making a lot of negative comments while waiting in the office, probably out of fear. Dr. Greene was amazing! He spent time getting to know my folks, kidding around with my mom, and carefully examining both of her legs. He took the time to explain what was happening with her skin, and even drew a diagram to illustrate it. He reassured us that no surgery or procedure was medically necessary, where some doctors might have suggested a procedure simply to bring in more revenue. He took the time to notice that my mom’s skin was dry and to recommend an inexpensive, over the counter cream. By the time they left, my dad was so relieved that he gave Dr. Greene a hug, and my mom was all smiles.
It is a sad commentary on health care today that this level of expertise and personal attention is so rare, but a lucky thing for those of us near U Village that Dr. Greene has chosen to open his clinic in this area.

What a great clinic!!! I’ve seen Erin a few times for different issues and she is just wonderful. I love the way she cares about her patients. Then today I took my 16 yr old daughter in for an appt with Dr. Greene and had a fantastic experience. He took time to make her comfortable and understand the issue. After his evaluation he thoroughly explained her condition and how best to treat it. I was so pleased with the experience and will be sure to recommend them highly to my family and friends!

I had some unsightly broken blood vessels near my nose from a traumatic injury I received over 30 years ago. Every day I was reminded of the incident. When I learned that Dr. Greene had advanced lasers that might be able to remove them, I decided to see if the treatment could work. Dr. Greene’s calm and proficient approach was very reassuring. Not only was the procedure painless and quick, but it was 100% effective. I am so happy every morning when I look in the mirror. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Greene and his kind and professional staff. Thank you so much, Dr. Greene!

I searched online to find a dermatologist who first and foremost is concerned about diseases of the skin. I also wanted someone who was fairly well established and who practiced at the north end of Seattle (e.g., the University district or north). I am so pleased to have found Dr. Greene. He has really re-​established my confidence in knowledgeable physicians with outstanding bedside manners.
Dr. Greene was very thorough in examining and removing a couple of bumps on my face (my main reason for making an appointment to see him), and he also took biopsies of a couple of other areas that he was concerned about and sent them to the lab for analysis and diagnosis. All during the visit, Dr. Greene let me know what the different treatments would cost, what would be covered by my insurance, and what wouldn’t be, which I appreciated knowing. Two days later, I was surprised but very pleased to receive a phone from Dr. Greene himself to let me know that the biopsy reports were clear, so I was able to have a worry-​free weekend and to celebrate! With medical clinics having more and more physician assistants and nurse practitioners seeing patients, it was refreshing to have an appointment with a real M.D. who is willing to spend a lot of time with his patients, providing understandable explanations and answering all questions, because he wants to give the best care possible.
The office on 25^th Ave NE is beautiful, and his assistants are very professional, friendly, and helpful. There is a parking structure right next to the building, so it’s very convenient. As the other reviewers mention, Dr. Greene is very skilled at cosmetic treatments as well. I highly recommend Dr. Greene, and I plan to see him periodically in the future for skin checks and treatments.

Getting a facial had been the extent of my experience with cosmetic treatments, but I wanted to look good for my daughter’s wedding and a friend told me about Advanced Dermatology so I thought I’d check it out. I was quite surprised to discover that the place felt more like a spa than a clinic — by that I mean, the atmosphere is lovely and welcoming, and everyone is so friendly!
Dr. Greene is so knowledgeable, and they really do have all the latest treatments. I had heard that you have to be careful because there are a lot of unqualified folks out there running medi-​spas, which is why I felt confident going to a physician-​run clinic like this. Dr. Greene took the time to get to know me — he was very excited about the idea of making me look good for the wedding — and I never felt like I was getting pushed to do anything I didn’t want. In fact, as I gained confidence, I went back a few times and had several treatments. They are really good about telling you what to expect, and always available if you have questions. I would not hesitate to recommend them to any of my friends! And now I think I’m going to look great in those wedding photos!

Dr. Greene and his whole staff are so easy to talk to and they really listen to your concerns and ideas. My experience was great from the start! They also have wonderful skin care products and advice for aftercare. Everyone is so professional and just nice people.

A beautiful clinic with professional service and advanced treatments. I had laser treatment for age spots, the staff were professional and explained the treatment I was receiving from Dr. Greene. Dr. Greene was also very professional, knowledgable and incredibly kind, he followed up to see how I was doing.
I really enjoyed the whole experience and would highly recommend any and all of the services this clinic offers. My treatment has been very successful and made a remarkable difference. I am looking forward to continuing to be a patient of Advanced Dermatology and Laser Institute of Seattle as I age more gracefully with their help:)

I had an excellent experience at the Advanced Dermatology and Laser institute. The staff was very professional and friendly. The procedures I had were new to me, the latest in technology for facial filler and something similar to Botox. I am very pleased with the results and will refer my friends. Dr. Greene is clearly very knowledgable and explains everything he is doing.
I will definitely be returning!

I had the pleasure of going to this medical spa shortly after it opened and had a Hydrafacial. Dr. Greene came highly recommended through a friend and I was blown away by how friendly and professional the staff was. The interior is beautiful, and it’s the type of place you walk into and you’re immediately glad you did — especially after the front desk person greeted me.
The treatment was fantastic (I look 5 years younger), and I had a really good experience. I will definitely be going back and I would give this practice two enthusiastic thumbs up.
Thank you Dr. Greene and your staff!
