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.

Dr Lao is an exceptional doctor. He is attentive, listens to his patients and is truly a life saver with his knowledge and experience. I can’t say enough about how appreciative I am for U of M Melanoma Oncology, Dr. Lao. Diane NP and the staff. All are top notch!

Awesome physician
We went in very anxious and his explanations relieved us a lot. He gave us hope. We were thrilled that PET scan and MRI which were done the evening before were resulted and sent to Dr Lao so he could tell us at our appt. This efficiency was impressive. Feel we are in the best of hands with Dr Lao at the helm.

He is the most compassionate and knowledgeable doctor I have ever been too. Thanks to him I am still surviving metastatic melanoma after 8 years. So blessed to have him in my life.
