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.

Went to her office at Lanoi and had a bad experien
I was left in a cold exam room in my underwear for 20 minutes and ignored. Not very caring or professional! I left! I Will not be seen at that office again and be disrespected like that!

I wouldn't recommend her at all, she prescribed me a oral medication to take for several years for a condition I did not even have and gave me two wrong diagnosis on what my issue can be. I understand that doctors aren't supposed to know it all but if you're going to prescribe someone a medication to take for several years that have cancerous side effects, at least suggest them to do a biopsy first to know the medication they're taking is actually for what you're experiencing. I tried to schedule another appointment after I did a biopsy on my own and I came to her with the actual diagnosis and she rejected the visit stating it was "a bit severe" (which its not). Super unprofessional.

Visited with Dr. Calame via telehealth. Quick diagnosis and great treatment plan. Above that, she was thinking of me in between our visits. It's difficult enough to get most doctors to focus on you while you're in the room with them. So Dr. Calame's thinking of my pain and going the extra mile outside of our visits speaks volumes about the level of care she has for her patients. I will absolutely see her again and I would highly recommend her to anyone.

Both my husband and I see her and love her! Her knowledge is outstanding and she treats you as a person, not just a patient. I was treated for basil cell carcinoma and I feel so confident that I am getting the best care with her.

About Me

care philosophy

My ``real medicine`` approach to dermatology combines the latest scientific advances with the clinical art of medicine to treat you and your family. In keeping with this philosophy, I only recommend products and treatments with a proven track record of success.....not the ``technique of the week``.
