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.

Poor bedside manners
A lot of great reviews but when I met her I didn't think she has the best bedside manner for a doctor. She didn't care to explain or answer much of my questions & don't appear to care about the patient and didn't listen to my needs but only treated me like a number and quick to rush off to see the next patient.

Dr. Ding is highly professional and has a charming demeanor. She provided a detailed explanation of skin cancer screening, making the information easy to understand. Even though I did not have an appointment, she went out of her way to accommodate my visit.

Dr. Ding is a excellent doctor
My son and daughter had acne issues for a very long time and tried different things but did not work. When we met with Dr. Ding, she had a very organized plan. Their acne has improved significantly and we are very glad that we gave her a try. She is very patient, kind and competent. Her office staff is very helpful and polite as well.

Everything about this office is great
The entire staff and Dr Ding are all great. I have been there 3 times. Never much of a wait. Everyone is so friendly and accommodating. Dr Ding always takes the time to explain my issues and help me take care of the issues at home. I don’t think I will ever go to any other dermatologist in the future. I highly recommend using her and this office.

Highly recommend
I went to Dr. Ding for a cancer screening last year and then returned recently for some isolated skin conditions. I was very pleased with both of my experiences. From the notifications and reminders leading up to my appointment, to the friendly staff at check-in, to the meetings with Dr. Ding herself who answered all my questions and took her time explaining what she was doing. I would happily go back with any issues or concerns and definitely recommend Dr. Ding's services.

Good service!
Telehealth
I recently had the pleasure of being under the care of Dr Ding for a dermatological procedure, and I cannot recommend her services highly enough. She took the time to explain each step in detail, ensuring I was fully informed and comfortable with the process. Her hands were remarkably steady and gentle, which greatly minimized any discomfort and truly made a difference in my experience.
