Patient Comments
Dermatologist was very knowledgeable and explain to me about my condition, which gave me emotional relief as well as physical relief, which was really important to me because I didn't really realize what was going on with my body.
I was fortunate to have met Alina at one of the Temple Melanoma events - and was happy to learn she worked out of the FtW office.
This was my first time seeing this physician. She was kind, patient, and offered a lot of information I needed due to my medical concerns. I will definitely be recommending her to other people. Thank you
I would like to acknowledge the compassion the nurse and doctor showed to me during my visit. I had just received a bit of bad news about a family member. I was really emotional and couldn't stop crying during my appt. Both the nurse and doctor did their best to try to console me. I was given a box of tissues. They gave me the opportunity to talk to them about it. They offered to call a family member to come pick me up since I was there alone. They offered to get me an Uber ride home. They informed me that there was a social worker I could utilize should I need it. They told me I could stay in the exam room as long as I needed to get myself together. Lastly, I was given hugs and encouragement upon my departure. So I would rate my experience 10/10.
This provider is excellent.
