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.

Saw Dr. Zahner 5 months ago for a potential basil cell carcinoma on my nose. My GP & oncologist suspected cancer. Dr. Zahner diagnosed this as pre-cancerous cells, with treatment to 'freeze it'. The 'freezing' did nothing (the mole remained). After visiting another dermatologist, who immediately did a biopsy, and found basil cell carcinoma, I had Mohs surgery, where they found squamous cancer also. I have a large wound on my nose which is deep probably due to the delay in diagnosis.
