Globerman M Linda, MD

Came in for Botox because I heard that she was really good and I was very pleased with the results! Dr. Globerman is very professional and kind of treated me like I was her daughter, very nurturing and caring. She gave me good consultation about the placement of the Botox. With Botox, the Dr. has to estimate what is the right amount for your face so you have the desired effect but don’t look too” frozen”. She gave me the perfect amount and it worked very well! Botox is kind of a science and an art and Dr. Globerman is awesome at it!

I have been going to Dr. Globerman for skin checks for 2 years and find her professional and thorough.
Since I had good experiences with her I brought my toddler in to see if she could help. He had been diagnosed with molluscum contagiosum. Most pediatricians say to do nothing about it and it will go away. They are small wart-​like bumps that often go away on their own. My son had this condition which left pimple-​like bumps on his legs, arms and face. There were usually on a few bumps at a time but when they kept reappearing on the face they would irritate my son and he would lick and scratch them.
Schools were also asking what it was and I would have to send notes saying it was ok and not contagious. He also was becoming self-​conscious too since he said the kids were asking about his «polka dots» on his face.
My previous pediatrician in another city had used some kind of thing that burned the wart-​like bumps off but left oozy sores and a took a few days to heal. (Beetle juice)? So, my son had had these bumps for 2 – 3 years on and off. Finally, he had 2 – 3 bumps on his face and one near his mouth so I decided to bring him to Dr. Globerman. My local pediatrician said to do nothing but they were itchy and irritating on his face and I was worried that touching, licking and scratching would make them spread.
Dr. Globerman did not want to use the same treatment to burn off the warts and instead prescribed a cream related to retinol. She said to use a teeny tiny amount. I followed her directions and the bumps went away very quickly — within two weeks. I treated the bumps on his face and leg. Finally they were all gone at once! One year later and they have never come back. My son was truly cured thank you to Dr. Globerman! I wish someone else had told me about this miracle cream earlier to save all of the difficulties that we had in the past. Thank you Dr. Globerman!

LOVE HER! She treated a raised scar that I had with a couple of injections. The scar is now flat and the color is fading. I had this small scar treated by another dermatologist before. Instead of doing this minimally invasive procedure, the other doctor excised the scar and re-​sutured the skin, which in turn created a larger, more noticeable scar. Needless to say, I wish I went to Dr. Globerman first.
Minimal wait times and free parking are plusses!

Dr. Globerman has been fantastic. She has treated my entire family. Also, her staff is always very helpful and friendly. Also, the wait time has never been too long.

Very disappointing, Not with dr but the employees. I try to make and appointment and they denied service to me because they said I owe them money. If I wanted to see the dermatologist I would have to pay cash for all the services, of course I’d say no!!!
First they give me a # to call which I did then she told me we send you to collection agency!! after a day of struggling with those agencies and in a way wasting my valuable time… They finally say oh!!! You don’t owe us anything!!! I was so mad for what I had to go thru. We can make the appmt for you!!! After they treated me like a criminal! Dr probably don’t care about loosing a client! But I will never go back to her thanks to the unprofessional stuff…

I was disappointed. Not with Dr. Globerman but with the office. I’ve been looking for a good dermatologist for years, seem to be none in Irvine really good. Friend recommended this one. She did a great thorough exam. But then I was charged extra for co-​pay and lab work. A mole was removed and biopsied and Dr. G. told me to come back for a quick 5 minute exam to check healing. I did and they even charged me for that which I told them was very petty and money-​grubbing. I never returned. Maybe more concern for patients and less for money would go a long way. Now looking for a new doctor.

I take my skin very seriously and I believe your skin can truly reflect your health and youth. I had an annoying acne condition on my face and Dr Globerman helped me get better by prescribing me topical antibiotics. I improved within a few months (granted I try to have healthy lifestyle as well, but still). She also advised me what kind of cleansers, moisturizers, and even makeup is good for my skin.

I adore Dr. Globerman! She is thorough, professional, and she knows her stuff. However, the staff that works with her leaves very much to be desired. One woman appears to be incompetent, a few of the office staff (who answer the phone) lack any compassion. The aesthetician is an idiot. There is a significant disconnect between Dr. Globerman’s amazing competence and the ineptitude of those that work under her. I don’t understand, and hope that Dr. Globerman is planning to make a change in this area.

Dr. Globerman is simply the best, she is very caring and kind and take care of her patients genuinely. I recently had a scary abscess and my family Dr. refused to see me, but when I went to her, she took me in right away and started to work on it and she took good care of me. I highly recommend her to every one. she is truly professional.

I feel like Dr. Globerman potentially saved my life. I was 26 years old when I first started seeing her (so this back in the late 90s). I had a dark little mole on my left wrist that my Cool Newport Beach Dermatologist kept measuring every year when I would go for an appointment. My mom was seeing Dr. Globerman and urged (okay, begged) me to go be examined by her. My mom said Dr. Globerman gave very thorough exams and that she used a pathologist that specialized in skin biopsies.
Dr. Globerman was kind but very focused. She took one look at the mole on my wrist and asked me a bunch of questions about it. I told her my Cool Dermatologist just measures it every year. Dr. Globerman asked if she could remove it that day… and that procedure would require stitches. I had not psyched myself up to have a procedure that day but because of Dr. Globerman’s concern, I agreed. Okay, no big deal, a few stitches and I was on my way again.
A week or so later I received a call from the Doctor (at 8:30 in the evening) that she had received the results from the lab and it was not great news. My little, flat, NOT scary looking mole was actually on its way to becoming Melanoma! Whew, she had my attention now… and once again my mother dispensed some invaluable advice.
One more in-​office procedure to make sure the perimeter of the site were all clear. I very much appreciate how thorough she is with her work. Better to be on the safe side than sorry, and I have been clear and healthy for well over a decade.
Needless to say, I never returned to the Cool Newport Beach Doc.
So if you are looking for a kind doctor who will give your skin a very thorough check then Dr. Globerman is the one I recommend.
Thank you Dr. Globerman!

After several disappointing encounters with dermatologists throughout the OC, I finally found a dermatology practice that I love! This practice offers a balance between Medical Dermatology and Cosmetic Dermatology– a rare find these days. They offer all the latest cosmetic procedures, but do not push it on you. I saw Dr. Globerman for a skin check and biopsy and then Dr. Lander performed Mohs surgery on my face for a basal cell carcinoma. Both Drs. and the staff were professional, kind, and thorough. I highly recommend her!
