Doctor Walia is awesome. She always talks to me during the procedure telling me what she's about to do. I have minimal scarring already from the procedure and it will only get better. Another doctor told me she was the best and I agree.

Mohs’ micrographic surgery was performed on my left temple by Dr Suneeta Walia. I am exceptionally pleased with the results. I needed 2 layers taken off to remove all of the cancer. Incision repair was perfect. Dr Walia and her team were extremely professional, and made me feel very comfortable throughout the entire procedure. They explain each step along the way. I was very well taken care of and couldn’t ask for a better experience. Thank you to Dr Walia and her amazing team.

Great team from check in to check out. Consequently, I was totally at ease throughout the entire process. Thank you.

Great 👍

Excellent!

There are not enough superlatives to express the excellence of every aspect of the professional care I received from Dr. Walia. She has been my surgeon on 3 occasions ( nose, ear and back) and I have been extremely pleased not only with her outstanding skill, but her communication and her warmth.

Our Response:
We appreciate your kind words. Compassion and empathy are the cornerstones of our patient-client relationships. Thank you for the kind review.

Dr. Wailia, and the whole team were so very professional, yet friendly. They made me feel very comfortable and relaxed prior to my Mohs procedure. She came in and spent time explaining everything, offering options, and asking if I had any questions. She made things very easier to understand. She started on time, and my procedure was done before I knew it!

Our Response:
We appreciate the review. Compassion, expertise, and ensuring quality outcomes are core principles of our patient care philosophy. We'll make sure that your great feedback reaches our team. Thank you.

October 2022

I had an appointment with Suneeta Walia MD to remove a cancerous lesion from the posterior high up on my left shoulder. Everything was right and comfortable from the very start to the very end. Suneeta explained everything that she was going to do. The procedure was totally painless, and, Suneeta was always conscious of my comfort level. Suneeta was swift and accurate in all her moves. There was never any doubt in Suneeta's complete command of the situation. Suneeta Walia is a true professional. I still feel good about how Suneeta conducted and orchestrated everything at her command. Kudos to Suneeta. Best wishes to her and her team. Jerry Palaschak.
