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.

A thorough, welcoming, professional experience!
Dr Yashar is compassionate, gentle, and complete! He is thorough in his procedures and exams, but he always has time for a kind word. During my last visit, he performed an excision. Dr Yashar was attentive to whether I felt any of the procedure (before I even said anything) and was quick to administer anesthetic before continuing. His staff is friendly, attentive, and kind. They create a professional, welcoming experience. I feel well cared for from the moment I walk in.I definitely recommend his office for care!

Best dermatologist
I am a new new patient of Dr. Yashar. I have had only one encounter with the doctor, and that occurred on July 21, 2022. I went to see Dr. Yashar because my previous dermatologist drop out of the medical network of which I am a member. I was seeing PDT treatment on my face. He did that treatment and I was very please. He also found and treated me for skin issues I did not know I had. He took a tissue sample from one finger to be sent to the lab and he removed (froze) a half-dozen dark spots on my hands and arms. I am 100% pleased with the expert treatment I received from the doctor. I will now be his continuing patient because there is no need to search for any other dermatologist. You will receive excellent care if you book an office visit with Dr Yashar. Review written by Floyd, a real patient.

Experienced, skilled, great with patients
Was referred for MOHS surgery which he performed VERY skillfully, provided free aftercare supplies, and worked with me to minimize scarring. He also dealt with my wider concerns about my skin, and without additional cost to me provided treatment, and directed me to topical meds which were low cost, nonprescription and highly effective. Wish I had met him years earlier. Highly recommended.

I recently visited Dr. Yashar's office as I accompanied my elderly mother to her scheduled appt. Dr. Yashar showed kindness and compassion towards my mother throughout her entire visit. He thoroughly examined all the areas of concern, removed suspicious and bothersome lesions, and followed up on any previously treated areas to evaluate for resolution. At the end of the visit, he closed by asking my mother if there was anything else he could do for her today. Dr. Yashar went above and beyond to care for my mother's dermatologic needs demonstrating completeness and thoroughness in his care. In addition, he answered all our questions, provided education and guidance to manage her chronic skin conditions, and even provided numerous product samples to use as an adjunct to care. I cannot say enough good things about this provider who truly demonstrated care for my mother. I work in health care myself and by far this provider is top notch in my books regarding his compassion for care.

I am writing this on behalf of my 86 year-old father. I have been taking him to see Dr. Yashar for about 5 years as he has a history of skin lesions and melanomas. Dr. Yashar has always treated my dad with the utmost respect, care, professionalism, and, above all, patience, as my dad is *extremely* hard-of-hearing, even with hearing aids. Dr. Yashar is gentle and kind with an excellent bedside manner: never rushed or impatient, and we appreciate his clever banter. He always tailors a custom goody-bag geared to my dad’s skincare needs at the conclusion of every office-visit, which we very much appreciate. His staff is knowledgeable and efficient, and we have never had to wait longer than 5 minutes. Our entire family loves Dr. Yashar and my dad actually looks forward to his appointments with him; so much so that he actually rushes to the car without his cane when it’s time to leave for his appointment lol. Highly recommend Dr. Yashar; he is *TOP NOTCH*

Dr. Yashar is a very good doctor. He has a very good bed side manner, and listens to what his patients have to say, and explains his procedures very well, and every step of the way. I would recommend him to my family and friends. I would rate him a 5 star doctor.

I have been a patient of Dr. Yashar since the very beginning of his career. I find him to be awesome which is why I continue to go see him after all these years. He is caring, thorough, and generally a very good person as long as a very good doctor. Highly recommended in my experiences.
