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.Townley was the best !!! she explained everything she was doing and I felt very safe and her nurses who helped her were great !! No pain at all during the procedure !

Went to Dr Townley on 2/1/2021 for Mohs surgery. 1) Reception and check in were on time and perfect. 2) In to procedure room almost immediately. 3) Nurses double checked info, vials etc and were friendly. 4) Dr Townley was prompt and re-verified info. 5) She explained procedure thoroughly and answered all questions. 6) They all made me feel comfortable and were profession, yet cheerful. 7) Surgery went perfectly fine and NO PAIN. 8) I highly recommend them!

An amazing doctor! Kind, thoughtful and caring. Called me following MOHS surgery to follow up and see how I was feeling, which no other doctor has ever done. Her assistant, Connie, is also wonderful.
