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. Molinaro and his staff are always both personable and professional. The service always very complete.

I have seen Dr. Molinaro for quite a few years. He has found melanoma twice that I wouldn’t have picked up. Thank goodness for skilled physicians like him. My melanoma was excised and needed no further treatment since he found it early. I would highly recommend him for dermatologic care.

My experience with Dr. Molinaro was excellent. After arriving I was seen within 10 minutes. I went to him for a full body mole check and he was very thorough. He took the time to discuss any skin issues I was experiencing and he was very kind and personable. I really enjoyed my experience here and would recommend Dr. Molinaro.

Dr Molinaro does a very thorough skin cancer check. I have had a melanoma removed as well as a displastic mole. He explains all of his findings to me in a very clear and easy to understand manner. He removes any moles that he feels may be suspicious and calls me with the results in a timely manner. He always asks if i have any questions or concerns prior to ending the exam. All of the office staff are very professional.
