    Overall, I was treated with respect. I was communicated with clearly, followed up with regularly and consistently. And any concern that I had, it was heard. And people demonstrated that they were taking me seriously. They also demonstrated that they were concerned. That to me was top-tier customer service where the professionals that I'm working with are professional enough to know that I don't see what they see every day. And so the way that they communicate with me is a way that I can understand, but it's also one that is sensitive to what I know and what I don't know and how I feel. Thank you.

    I liked my first meeting with this provider. He confirmed many of the precautions I have been taking are good but could be improved with more sunscreen on face and neck [redacted] Dr. Demehri was right on time, very efficient in diagnosing my issues and very reassuring about my treatment plan and continued care. Like every single physician I have encountered at MGH B outstanding! [redacted]
