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.

Straight up, this man saved my life. Upon my initial diagnosis, he was direct about what I was facing. Initially, it represented itself as a lack of compassion or bedside manner. It was exactly what was needed. He had a job to do and that was to save my life. He was determined to do it. I’m coming up on 6 years seeing Dr Ott and we’ve developed a great relationship. This man represents the pinnacle of his field and there’s a reason he’s at Dana Farber. My family and I are outrageously grateful for every day he’s given me.

Lacks communication skills, does not explain or pass on any level of care, whether good or bad. Perhaps, he needs a lesson or CEU’s on this, very disappointing.

I was able to see Dr. Ott in less than a week after requesting an appointment. He's not the "warm, fuzzy" type but he is knowledgeable, he is open, and he is honest. As a patient dealing with melanoma for the second time, as well as being a nurse, I appreciate that. Dana-Farber Cancer Institute is also phenomenal. They get you in very quickly if there's an issue, which is wonderful. No long waits and wondering what's happening!
