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.

Top Notch
Dr. Venna is absolutely TOP NOTCH. I cannot say enough about him. He is professional, empathetic, patient, personable, competent… You will NOT find a better doctor. He has phenomenal bedside manner and he invests in his patients. I love that he is always willing to go the extra mile. He remembers specific things about my family and I, and genuinely cares. I feel 100% confident in his abilities. He is also very reassuring. There is a reason it’s soo hard to get an appt. with him. Don’t let that deter you, he’s worth the wait. He also somehow manages to stay on schedule with minimal wait times, but then makes you feel like you’re his only patient all day. So thankful for him! Wish he was a primary care doctor.

Highly recommend Dr Venna
My first appointment with Dr Venna was last month. I was very impressed with every aspect of the visit. He is a wonderful physician, who is very thorough and takes the time to explain everything. His kind and caring manner, puts you at ease from the moment you meet him. I’m a nurse and with out any reservation, I would HIGHLY recommend him.

I am chemistry professor, and, when I was diagnosed with melanoma, I started to deal with this problem in traditional way - literature search. And I will tell you: Dr. Venna is world level dermatologist, both doctor and scientist. Extremely pleasant , he treated me with patience and sympathy, supporting me a lot. To all of you, people, I recommend: save God you from getting this trouble, but in case if.... Dr. Venna is a man you must be looking for.

Dr. Vienna is a superb doctor. However rescheduling for a follow up visit is unlikely. My husband has been seeing Dr. Venna for years and cannot reschedule a follow up appointment this year unless he is a “new patient”. How unfortunate after years of committed loyalty from us. Time to find a new doctor.

Love Dr. Venna, he is absolutely phenomenal! We followed him from Washington Hospital Center and I could not be more pleased. He's very thourough and competent, sweet and reassuring! There is never a long wait to be seen. He explains EVERYTHING so well. My Gma has skin cancer all over her arms, and I will be bringing her in for an appt with his team as well! He's so personable and down to earth, allaround just an amazing doctor! I hope he stays at INOVA, he's great!

I followed Dr. Venna from another practice and cannot put into words how much I respect him. I travel 2 hours for my appointments. He is kind, professional and thorough. I have experienced all 3 types of skin cancer and know that Dr. Venna will always take care of whatever comes next.

Dr. Venna and Dr. Jang are both wonderful physicians who take melanoma as seriously as their patients. They are both very kind, gentle, patient, and compassionate individuals whose knowledge is on the very cutting edge of research. Melanoma isn't a disease with which people can dink around. The Inova melanoma team offers world-class care, and most importantly, they manage to deliver it in a timely fashion to those whose medical needs are rather urgent.
