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.

One great dermatologist
Dr. Ruth Yates has been my dermatologist for 30 plus years. She is very thorough in address my health issues regarding skin cancer. She is very professional, she calls me with the results of my biopsy and follows up up with my surgeon when surgery is needed.

Dr. Yates is top- notch, as far as I’m concerned! I have multiple long- term health problems with complications and have always had difficult medical care issues. Dr. Yates was immediately familiar with my condition and any and all scenarios. Not only that but she went out of her way to research something on her own and called me at home to tell me about it- we shared this info with the rest of my health care team and followed her recommendations! I would highly recommend her to one and all!
