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.

Excellent treatment
I’ve been getting skin checks for many years from Dr. Deignan. I always feel very well looked after and treated as an individual. Dr. D has an excellent bedside manner as do her assistants. The office is well organized and I got called in right away. Highly recommended.

Outstanding, Professional Care With a Heart!
The physician's assistant was personable, courteous, efficient, knowledgeable, and thoughtful. Dr. Deignan was very attentive and very careful to check everything thoroughly. She documented everything efficiently and compared to document evidence from my previous visit. She was very personable as well and communicated very clearly in a reassuring way. I did not feel pressured to purchase services, and she was very upfront about the cost of services that I inquired about. I will definitely be returning to Dr. Deignan and would recommend her to anyone.

Cancer, cosmetic, and prevention
Dr Deignan and her office team are kind, careful, and accurate. She has twice caught early skin cancers at my exam, over 15 years, and her colleague who does Mohs surgery removed them. I’ve also had her do cosmetic things. She is a wonderful doctor, highly recommend.

I've been a patient of Dr Deignan for years, now, and I am always impressed by her skill, knowledge, and kindness. At my very first appointment she saw a basal cell cancer on my face that I hadn't even noticed. I trust her judgment implicitly.

Great Dermatologist
Dr. Deignan is always thorough and respectful. She answers questions clearly and never makes you feel as if your questions are trivial. I credit her careful examination with catching my melanoma early 10 years ago and ensuring that I had the best possible care at Mass General. I saw her most recently for my annual skin check. I highly recommend her.
