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.

Excellent care.
Her manner was both professional and warm, and her explanations clear and thorough.

Superb Doctor
Dr Molly Yankovitz removed a squamous cell skin cancer from my head with mohs surgery— It was in a most precarious area. She is a skilled surgeon who is brilliant in her field. Most caring- kind - explains all to the patient— an amazing Doctor that I highly recommend.

My visit with Dr. Yancovitz was extremely professional, efficient and she had a lovely bedside manner. She intends to do a biopsy on a possible basal cell on my face near my nose. I look forward to my next appointment and would highly recommend her to others who may be concerned about possibly having facial skin cancer.

Dr. Yancovich is a wonderful doctor that listens to you and takes her time to exam you and explain everything.I have recommended her to anyone that needs a great dermatologist. I’ve had a small surgery and you would never know where it the stitches were. I would give her and her office more than 5 stars ifpossible. Thank you , Barbie cooke

My visit with Dr. Yancovitz to discuss Mohs surgery for a basal cell carcinoma on my nose could not have been more pleasant and informative. She took the time to talk with me about various aspects of the procedure and what to expect post-surgery, including reconstruction by a colleague plastic surgeon. I was impressed with how responsive everyone in her office was, and really came away feeling confident that I could not expect to be in better hands. Dr. Yancovitz is most definitely someone I could recommend without hesitation - she is the best!

I traveled from Maine to see Dr. Freitag at Mass Eye & Ear for a squamous cancer on my eyelid. She wanted me to see Dr. Yancovitz. I did not have an appointment with Dr. Yancovitz, but she agreed to see me within an hour, saving me another trip to Boston. Dr. Yancovitz is absolutely wonderful- very professional while at the same time very personal, thoughtful and thorough. She removed the cancer with Mohs surgery a month later. It was painless and I needed no plastic surgery. She is THE BEST!
