Specialties
Elizabeth Steinberg, M.D.'s office emphasizes the medical aspects of Dermatology. This office extends appointments for new patients only by referral from another doctor or insurance company, and only for skin cancers or other serious skin conditions. However, the office does offer limited cosmetic services to existing patients who request such procedures as Botox and Laser. Generally, as primary insurance only Medicare, Aetna, Blue Cross, Blue Shield, Cigna, and United Healthcare PPO'S are accepted. HMO's, Covered California, Medicaid, and Student Insurance are not accepted. Staff at Dr. Steinberg's office are extremely busy assisting existing patients many of whom have serious medical conditions. Staff are instructed not to waste any time with cold callers, potential patients without accepted insurance, and troublesome patients or solicitors. While this policy may seem rude to some, it is necessary to facilitate care for those who truly require attention.
