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.

Kind, complete and personal.

Dr Bigler claims that he performs Mohs surgery for skin cancer but in reality does nothing like the procedure is supposed to be. The procedure, as described in medical journals, is supposed to be a series of lesion removals that go outward from the lesion center and checked under a microscope until the lesion is gone and no cancerous cells appear to be present in the surrounding skin tissue. From the explanation, this is supposed to be a several step procedure to maintain the smallest incision possible while removing all of the cancerous tissue. Well, this is not what he does at all. He just draws a big circle around the lesion and cuts the entire area out, including a considerable skin margin around the lesion that leaves a huge hole in your face that won't heal up and leaves a huge scar. He only does one removal of a very large piece of tissue, in my case the size of a quarter, without doing the systematic progression called for in the Mohs surgery. My facial scar was very large.

I had 2 basal cell spots basically touching each other. Dr. Bigler wanted to remove one on one day and the other, the next day. And then suture it up the afternoon of the second day. There was no way to remove one spot without removing the other so all I felt, he was trying to do, was to get reimbursed for an unnecessary procedure. Went to another doctor who was able to do both lesions in one visit.

Not impressed at all. I had small cyst removed from my arm and I have a 2 inch scar. Won't make that mistake again.
