Patient comments
I never met a doctor so kind,caring and knowledgeable in his field.I look forward to all my visits.He is the best and very handsome
The Dr and his team are welcoming, kind, compassionate. They work well together and this is expressed in their respect for each other and the patient.
Dr. Aphale and the derm team are always amazing. IHe removed five skin cancers and biopsied two lesions. We have quite a history together. He's so patient and competent. I saw [...] once a few years ago and loved him, too. As good as an experience at the doctor as possible.
One of the best doctors I have been to. Very caring makes sure you don't have pain, which is fantastic. I can't say enough about the wonderful care I received. Fox Chase is very lucky to have him.
Dr. Aphlate was wonderful! His staff if very nice, especially his scheduler [...]!
