Joshua Wieder, MD

Dr. Weider is a nice man, and seems like a knowledgeable doctor. But he refused to see me for a follow up appointment, even though the treatment he instituted was not working and was actually making things worse. I don’t mind that you want to stick with a treatment, but you should never refuse to see a patient who is asking to be seen. Also, he just blamed me for why my condition was not improving, which is offensive to me. Santa Monica is a competitive place for dermatology, so I had to look elsewhere because he refused to see me.

Dr. Joshua Wieder is one of the finest doctors I met. Not only is he extremely knowledgeable, but being calm and collected, his patients are always well informed and less nervous. His office and staff are well run and as a result, usually, he will not keep you waiting.
If you are looking for the best dermatologist in WLA, look no further — your search is over!

I’ve been seeing Dr. Wieder for a year or more, and he and his team are just amazing — I’ve never seen a Doctor be so ‘on time’ with office hours, and efficient in the appointments. And he does it while being very personable, and takes the time to explain your options, and more. I couldn’t more highly recommend Dr. Wieder and his team.

I have been going to Dr. Wieder for 25 years now. After going to literally EVERY top dermatologist at the time for SEVERE acne, which no one could clear up, I found Dr. Wieder. He cleared my skin, cleared my scars, and a lifelong skin-​care régime began. I have had literally EVERY procedure he offers. As skin care technology has changed and advanced, he has changed with it. Always offering the latest treatments that he ONLY uses when he feels it is worth the expense. NOTHING gets pushed on you, and your results will be natural and glowing. I have had Thermage, Fraxel, IPL, sclerotherapy, microdermabrasion, hair laser removal, and every treatment from the past which included acid peels, laser resurfacing and glycolic peels. As an actress, I need to always look my best, and natural. I am ALWAYS getting complimented on my skin, and rarely wear makeup. He is THE man to go to for top skin care and maintenance. I think his prices are comparable to others, Allison in is office will be very clear what your insurance does, and doesn’t cover. No hidden prices or fees. (Cheaper than a facelift right!?) To top it off, I have been bringing my daughter to him for various skin issues since she was a baby. Simply the best.

Dr. Wieder is amazing, talented and has an incredible bedside manner. He is a pleasure to go see does amazing work, is to the point but does not try to oversell you anything. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who needs a great dermatologist and someone who is real and straight to the point. He is on time and has a very friendly and personable staff. He was great about explaining all my options to me. He took his time with me which I really appreciate without making you feel as if he is rushing you or trying to get you to do something you don’t really need. I think he is AMAZING and wish all doctors were such a pleasure. I HIGHLY recommend him!!! In addition he also validates parking what a bonus!!!

Finally decided to try Botox several years back. After consulting with many others, where one dermatologist tried to sell me not only botox but apparently I needed so many other procedures and products too. I felt like I was being sold… and talk about feeling self conscience about yourself after. Jeeze! I finally found Dr. Wieder. Amazing, friendly staff, never have to wait long for my appointments and I have now been seeing Dr Wieder for three years and I look natural, well rested with a glow. He knows the exact amount of botox/​fillers/​products to use. No one around me knows I even have it! They just think I look younger and younger every year! That’s how good he is. I would not trust my face with anyone else. He is the most professional dermatologist I have met and can not rave enough about him and his staff. I wish I could keep him a secret, but he is that good, I must share.

Dr. Weider is a very polite, caring, and professional dermatologist. Most importantly, he only performs medical procedures that are absolutely necessary. He is very busy; and therefore, make your appointment well in advance. Parking is easy, — there is a parking lot behind a building where his office is located. His staff is polite, and the office has a peaceful and pleasant atmosphere.

Dr. Wieder is the best dermatologist in Los Angeles. I’ve been going to him for over 15 years and have never been disappointed. He takes the time to thoroughly listen and explain his recommendations/​procedures in detail. If you have questions, he patiently clarifies. The procedures I’ve had done: IPL, sclerotherapy, botox, laser treatments, removal of cancerous skin cells, and other medical issues that were minor.
In a few cases I tried dermatologists closer to home and was greatly disappointed, which is why I have always gone back to Dr. Wieder. The 1 hour drive to his office is well worth the money and time.
I also have to say that Dr. Woo is excellent as well. She also takes the time to listen and explains until you fully understand.
Lastly, the staff is great. Allison, Ann and Laurie are always friendly and try their best to make your experience as pleasant as possible.

I have been seeing Dr. Wieder for over 20 years. I now also see his partner, Joan Wi as well. They really take care of skin condition. I trust their caring, knowledge & abilities. Excellent docs!

I’ve had Botox from a variety of dermatologists and plastic surgeons. Dr. Wieder is the only one who has really taken the time to get it right without making my face overly frozen. He is conservative without being «too» conservative. He’s also just a lovely person and doesn’t try to sell you the newest treatments on the market if he really doesn’t think you’ll see a significant enough result. Whenever I tell him about some new treatment I’ve read about in a fashion magazine, he always seems to give an honest assessment of the «hype» associated with it. He’s also got a super nice staff.

Dr. Wieder is a fantastic doctor! Extremely professional, knowledgeable, and never keeps you waiting. I gave 4 stars instead of 5 because seems a little pricey to me, but then again, it may be it’s worth it to have such a fantastic doctor who gives you great results.

Dr. Wieder is one of the best. I have been seeing him since my early twenties and his advice has completely changed my skin. His staff is very helpful, friendly, and professional and I have always enjoyed going to his office. He definitely spends a lot of time with you and never seems in a rush to get out of there. He does not overbook patients.
The only downside is that they don’t take most insurance so you have to pay out of pocket. It’s worth the money for serious skin problems or for anti-​aging.

Great place. Very professional. Dr. Wieder is very easy to talk to and is exactly what you want your doctor to be.
Don’t go to a «mill» for medical treatments — those places are like Costco. Go to a doctor instead. Yes, you will pay more here — but you will get what you want.
