Dr. Rachel Thakore made me feel comfortable during my full body exam. She was very thorough, educated me about what to look out for going forward. The office staff was also excellent!

I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Patel! I did my annual skin screening with her today and she has such a calming demeanor and made me feel at ease. She takes her time and thoroughly examined each spot. Her medical assistant, Hannah, was also very welcoming. Will definitely return next year!

This was by far the worst medical care I have ever received. I underwent a procedure to have skin cancer removed and was reassured that I would be in good hands with a “plastic surgeon.” That could not have been further from the truth. During the procedure, the surgeon spent the first 20 min telling an assistant what to do as if it was her first day. I was met with 0 bed side manner or even a description of what would be done that day. All her said was I would be “trading a tiny freckle for a big scar.” Just want you want to hear! The procedure felt extremely unprofessional. They had me just pull up my sweat pants and got to work. I was given an excessive amounts of stitches sent on my way with no post-procedure instructions, and left feeling shaken and uncared for. After that, I never heard from them again. I was never informed whether the tissue removed was actually cancerous, and no one followed up to check on my recovery or even to schedule stitch removal. Eventually, I had to go to another surgeon to have my stitches removed. He was shocked by how poorly the incision was done and how carelessly I had been stitched. Despite all of this, I later received a bill for $1,600. To this day, I have received no follow-up regarding my results or care, and I never heard from the “surgeon” again. This was a truly awful experience. I strongly advise against going here, especially for something as serious as skin cancer surgery.

I had a wonderful experience here, I highly recommend. The staff was nice and friendly and I was in and out without having to wait long at all. Alison Moy was my doctor with her assistant and they were very knowledgeable in letting me know everything that was going on and answered all my questions. I will definitely be back and recommend to anyone needing a dermatologist.

Dr. Thakore is wonderful: extremely thorough, knowledgeable, informative, and patient. I never feel that she is rushing and appreciate that she always takes time to answer my questions: no matter how many. Her staff is always kind and helpful.
