Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Cold and impersonal. Medical Assistant does things in this office that I am used to having a Medical Doctor perform. They push you in and push you ot on a conveyor belt. I will not be going back.

Had been satisfied seeing the PA for a year or so for persistent squamous cell problems on my legs. Office called to Reschedule my appointment for a specialized 3 hour procedure on my SHINS. Something about 'so much demand for the unique equipment'.Once I got all settled in the room they insisted the equipment for legs was too busy so were doing my FACE instead! What??NO skin problems on my FACE!(They had dealt with a comparatively inconsequential issue on my face a few months ago).EITHER A SERIOUS ERROR?...OR, BAIT AND SWITCH?... I BOLTED! NEVER TRUST THEM AGAIN!!

I am very pleased with the comprehensive treatment that I received: Lorie Masters, PA, is a very experienced and skillful dermatology assistant: The entire staff with whom I interacted was professional, super helpful and friendly. Reassuring to have confidence in a practice away from home. Thank you for seeing me on short notice and for providing such good care.

Have had 2 skin cancers removed from my face. Dr O’Donoghue is excellent with facial stitching. Both times were in the nose bridge area and no visible scar.

Been there for the same problem a bunch of times and finally gave up. This place charges you for things they did not do. Save yourself the hassle. A 20+ minute visit with a 20 minute wait $ 400. Just for a checkup. This place will rob you and your insurance and you will have to come back for the same thing again! Also people who come in an hour late they will let stay and which messes up the next persons visit. Be prepared to be sold sun block to cosmetics right after your visit. My price from t

I have been a patient for about 19 years. Dr. O'Donoghue has rightly risen to the top of his profession in the area during that time.

The most important quality about Dr. O'Donoghue is that he give a very thorough exam, checking areas such as your scalp, between your toes, behind your ears, etc. In addition to his competence and professionalism, he is very kind, considerate, and pleasant to his patients!
