Beyond very good. Outstanding care in my case
I was concerned about having Mohs surgery because of both a previous surgery not at Stanford had my experiences with recent Derm clinic biopsies, which I found extremely painful and frankly rude. However, at this appointment with Dr. Asai, I found her to be an incredible physician. One of those rare people that you thank God for finding for you. She was kind and gentle explained exactly what she was going to do and when she did it, I can honestly say I felt no pain. She used a smaller needle and used bicarbonate in the local solution and although the work that she did was quite extensive, I can honestly say I had zero pain I would recommend her to anyone else, including myself to come back for further procedures.

I trust Dr Aasi implicitely. Unfortunately, I already know what a great job she does. I have every reason to believe my surgery yesterday will have addressed the melanoma concern while leaving the best possible outcome, from a cosmetic standpoint. My only critique, is not the quality of the care, but rather the significantly delayed administration of same. Will get to this within this survey, I imagine.

Dr. Aasi was very clear when explaining her procedures, and after care. Made me feel great about how good my wounds were coming along & looked.
Dr. Aasi is superb. I have recommended her to several friends.
She was excellent.
Dr. Aasi and her team were absolutely great!!!
Dr. Aasi was excellent. She explained my surgery in detail and I felt very assured about the procedure.
Dr. Aasi was friendly, courteous, showed concern for my questions and worries, explained the procedure with clarity, included me in our decisions, gave proper time & care. I recommend them.
I've never had anything but outstanding service at Stanford Health!
Again, I've never received better medical care and I have already told multiple people in my workplace and other social circles about the superior care that I receive Stanford Dermatology and specifically Dr. Aasi and her super-skilled team.
She talked me through the procedure and made sure I was not experiencing pain. Total professional but compassionate also. Iwould definitely use her again.
Dr Aasi was amazing she toldme all my options and had my best interest as a patient in mind and that was so important to me
The doctor and the team were very professional, caring, and explained clearly to my questions. Everyone was great.
My experience was positive in every possible way. Professional, friendly. knowledgable, kind, responsive.
excellent
went well
everything was good and professionally
Dr. Aasi and her entire team are wonderful. Thank you!
Dr. Aasi is an amazing doctor. She is very professional and has such awesome knowledge and skills. The removal of my melanoma on my face was a HUGE area BUT she knew exactly how and where to do it to minimize the scarring and her concern for making sure that she removed ALL the cancer was so reassuring to me.
I was not consulted regarding the type of surgery I needed for my skin cancers. I didn't expect to be. I fully trust my surgeon and believe she gave me the best care for my type of condition.
super
I was pleased to find an alternative to invasive surgery.
Great Team was very happy.
The doctor was very rushed and uncaring. she offered no explanation during procedure and did not check on me throughout. I was nervous and she did not care.
there was no time wasted, but i was given their complete focus
All doctors (Liu, Chong, Aasi) were very friendly and efficient.
Excellent patient care, everything was explained to me very well and questions were answered. During the procedure, I was guided through each step so I knew what to expect. They were also very kind and courteous to my husband who is waiting for me to complete the procedure
The Dr. who provided the stitches for my surgery did excellent work, and provided excellent information on the care of the incision site.
Outstanding - could not have been treated better
excellent -- no nonsense and very kind
Excellent experiencer
Dr. Aasi is great!
the doctor was excellent. Described possible options and as it turned out none where needed immediately. She explained everything going down the road and they referred me to a more local dermatologist in the South Bay area where I live. Overall a very pleasant experience
Exceptional, professional care and surgery !!!!!
The Doctor and support staff were very professional, caring and supportive
I really didn't feel like I was a patient. I just felt like a procedure. The doctor and staff perform the same procedure day in and day out, so for them it's just something they do. For me, this was a first time thing and I was scared. I didn't feel any compassion towards me from the staff. I felt worse emotionally after I left the appointment. Like I was the one who did something wrong because I was unsure about the procedure. I felt like my questions were answered but without concern that I had never gone through the experience before. it made me very sad that I didn't feel taken care of when I specifically chose to go to this Stanford clinic.
Great.
Staff was very tuned into bleeding issues and followed up with useful advice. They tell where there was a minor wound care issue at home.
Good experience.
Everything was great, thanks a lot!
Dr Aasi was amazing with us
Excellent surgeon and staff......considerate, confident, yet kind and patient
The care provider seemed genuinely concerned for my well being. She was attentive and did not rush the procedure.
Dr. Aasi was very professional, knowledgeable, informative and confident. She explained in detail what was happening and made me feel at ease.
Excellent care and help from whomever I had contact.
No complaints! I trust Dr. Aasi. She is excellent.
so very blessed to have Dr Aasi
They made me feel very comfortable, I was confident in their experience, they even laughed at my silly jokes!
I have already begun referring all family and friends to Dr. Aasi, Dr. Linoue and staff.
Excellent doctor!
Very pleasant experience! Excellent doctors, nurses, etc.
The doctor was very professional and efficient, The doctor made me feel at ease and relaxed as much as was possible.
simply the best in every way!!
Dr Advani is the best
Dr. Aasi is an amazing doctor!
Exceptional experience overall! Everyone who was involved in the surgery was incredibly friendly, competent, and cared for my comfort.
good
Dr. Aasi was efficient yet I never felt shortchanged. What Dr. Aasi didn't have time to discuss with me she asked her residents and nurses to communicate to me. I felt if I needed Dr. Aasi's direct input, it would have been mine. Kara and Dr. Moses were great.
It was a great experience
Dr. Aasi and her team were terrific. Answered every question, were very pleasant and made me as comfortable as possible. Dr. Aasi explained what she was going to do and answered all my questions fully. Very positive experience.
The doctor/surgeon probably my most favorite medical person ever. She was so calming & down to earth & I do not have enough superlatives to express my gratitude to her!
physician gave no medications (didn't need any), no post op instructions. very much an assembly line experience.
Dr. Aasi is a fantastic surgeon and wonderful caring person.
Every one these were met and far exceeded the #5 rating! Extremely impressed.
there was a back up for surgeries and procedures that day. but she was very nice about it.
We feel very Blessed by Dr. Aasi taking on Steve's surgery, and have total courage confidence in her very skilled hands. Steve is now cancer free because of Dr. Aasi's care.
Dr. Assi is very hurried. However, she is an excellent physician in whom I have complete confidence and would urge others who need such care to see her.
very nice people. Good service!
very good experience
Dr Aasi and her team are EXCELLENT.
lmpressive Doctor!
Sometimes Dr. Aasi races through, making it difficult to communicate/ask questions. Sometimes the questions are clarifying questions and take back & forth dialogue to form the question.
Dr. Aasi is amazing! Very competent and extremely thorough.
Again excellent doctors, doctor's assistant, & nurse.
Dr. Aasi and Dr. Barnes are the best!! They did an excellent job of explaining my options for closing up my surgical site.I really felt like they cared about me and I was not" just another patient".
I was treated with respect and kindness. I was well informed during the procedures. I felt like the focus was definitely on me and my surgery. They really tried to make this difficult situation the best possible for me.
The doctor was confident, direct, skilled, practical, and kind. This was the first time I'd met her.
Dr. Asai, professional, clear communication , exhibits empathy. Great leader, manager and doctor
I could have used more support and explination on care of the wound and how to bandage it. I left with what looked like a diaper on my nose. Some flesh coloured tape and bandages would have helped.
Dr. Aasi was excellent in her surgical procedure and follow-up post surgery. her team followed her lead and the team was great!
Your clinic excels at calling patients after surgery!
Friendly, caring and not a lot of wasting time. I could tell she is a very busy Doctor, but I gelt well cared for and not rushed.
Dr. Aasi is the best. Patient is lucky to have her as his/her surgeon. She is a great leader & teacher too. She is busy but always makes patient like me feel I'm in good hand with her & her team.
the doctor and resident explained everything to me and did a great job.
Dr. Assi is very good.
very impressed with doctor and staff in this clinic!
dr. is amazing. she is brilliant and yet meets the patient at their level. she is meticulous with stitches and is teaching the fellows the same.
perfection
A++
satisfied
Dr. Aasi is fantastic!
dr aasi is great
good
The entire staff was dazzling in their efficiency, teamwork, and focus
Good information. Hard for a nonprofessional to make an informed decision. The professional knows best. I was given two options, and I'm happy with my selection.
Doctor Aussie and staff are very thorough and nice
Dr Aasi and her team are highly-skilled professionals. They carry-out their activities very efficiently but also show genuine concern for patient's well-being and care.
Very easy to talk to.
I was very impressed with both the attending and resident physicians. They took the time to explain everything to me and my husband, and made sure that the local anesthetics were safe for my pregnancy. They were both extremely efficient but didn't feel at all rushed.
I feel I receive excellence care. Thank you!
Dr. Aasi is always personally concerned about my health. She's a real trooper - having just come off an international flight she was back in surgery at 7 am!
great
The best possible
Would have liked more information about the reason for the specific follow up care.
absolutely first rate! I am a biopharma research exec, and consider that I have high standards. I couldn't have been more impressed.
very organized and polite
What a blessing to be taken care of by such friendly and caring professionals. I am praying for all of you today. In Christ Jesus,
Never in my life have I been treated in such a condescending and dismissive manner by a care provider. I was really looking forward to having my skin issue resolved and while my condition wasn't treatable (I Understand that) the way the Doctor treated me and talked down to me was really unnecessary. I was pretty disappointed.
could not have been better
what do I say? it was a perfect experience for me!
As usual with Dr. Aasi our visit is always a 10+ on this scale (even though it only goes to 5!)
Very outstanding care. Dr. Aasi is one of the very best doctors I have ever received care from - indeed quite possibly the best of all of them. Her assistants were also very impressive.
dr and staff are amazing. I always feel confident when I need to have a procedure done
Dr. Aasi is beyond "very good". She is superb!!!!!
I have tremendous confidence in Dr. Aasi. The care provided by Dr. Aasi and her staff has been nothing short of stunning. I highly recommend my care provider to others.
Dr. Aasi was very professional. Showed me all aspects of the treatment and procedure and assisting provider was also very caring and together the treatment was excellent.
Dr. Aasi and her Team were very professional , caring, concerned, very efficient, and always kept me informed as to what was happening and what to expect next.
Dr. Aasi and her staff are AMAZING. I trust her completely to take care of my health issues.
very competent doctor
Dr Aasi is a real pro! She gave me total confidence in her assessment! I would definitely recommend her.
I have complete confidence in all my caregivers that I have had at all Stanford facilities. I have recommended Stanford to all my friends that have or may need medical care.
Dr. Aasi was wonderful. She answered all of my concerns and was very gentle throughout the procedure.
Dr. Aasi is an excellent care giver, trustworthy, showing deep knowledge in the area, and excellent skills in surgery. She explains her reasonings, listens to concerns, and making the right decisions.
expert explanations and advice
good
Dr Aasi was great and made the experience an easy one for me.
DR. ASSI IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!
Dr Aasi is amazing. she is a real excellent surgeon. i knew her from the care she gave my mom several years ago so I was real happy to have her as my own surgeon.
Dr Aassi is professional, confident and clear in her communication.
Dr. Aasi and the derm residents/fellows were extremely professional, informative, efficient and personable
very pleased with everything from start to finish
Very good. Doctor very kind and knowledgeable.
Very knowledgeable and caring. Went over the entire procedure and made sure I understood.
Again high praise for entire dermatological staff.
Dr. Aasi could not have been more professional, articulate and helpful.
I gave the derm team a visual history of my problem (2014 to pres). Both MD's were overjoyed to be able to see what should have been available in my eChart.
Dr. Assa, is the very best. very caring and considerate made me from our firsts visit feel at ease
All good!
I have recommended Dr. Aasi to many people.
The doctors made me comfortable with what was happening and I felt confident that I was receiving the the best care possible.
Could Not Ask For Any Better Understanding...All Where Fantastic !
Best experience. Everything and everybody were the best ever.
Needing a latex safe environment was #1 concern. Everyone was fantastic!
Outstanding clinician
I have recommended my care provider Dr Aasi to a number of my friends and family already. She is a phenomenal doctor. She is incredibly smart, efficient and thorough, and very skilled at her surgical specialty. Listens to all the patients concerns and is genuinely sensitive to one's needs.
The care provider and the entire team were exceptional. I couldn't have asked for better care.
very best of treatment
Great Experience
I would recommend them for sure
Very caring & friendly & explained everything so I could understand.
Dr. Aasi was very good at explaining each step and telling me what to expect in the recovery period.
Very good care!!
i felt completely informed every step of the way... and was asked often if i was uncomfortable or in any pain.
Outstanding. Reviewed treatment options, settled on the right one, modified on the fly as needed. Very patient and unhurried. Excellent.
Very grateful for the sensitive care I received at this appointment. My diagnosis and education about the procedure were handled very well. I am still nervous but I'm confident I'm getting the right treatment by a highly qualified practitioner.
Dr Aasi was genuinely concerned over my health issue and provided clear explanations regarding options and treatments ...
absolutely one of the best doctors I've ever had.
During my visit there was some concern that a report that was prepared by a non-Stanford facility was unclear. My doctor did an excellent job of explaining the situation, any potential options and any potential risks that those options may present and then including me in the decision on how to proceed.
Felt comfortable and left knowing I was in the best of care.
Dr Aasi inspires confidence and explains well what she is doing.
Dr. Aasi is absolutely fantastic & I felt that I was in very capable hands. She is both friendly & matter-of-fact & she has a good sense of humor, which I needed during what was a scary time for me.
Your The Best !!
none, everyone is doing their job professionally.
The physician (surgeon) explained that due to the pathology report, my condition would not require surgery and could be best treated with a topical cream. This was good news!
Dr. Aasi was wonderful; I feel very fortunate to be in her care.
Excellent quality of care
Dr. Aasi is amazing! So professional and yet so caring and warm!
Have personal relationship with high confidence in professionalism and concern for me as a patient.
Dr. Aasi was wonderful; very caring and compassionate, and I felt very well cared for throughout the procedure.
Explained what to do for both me and my wife.
Dr. Aasi was hands down, absolutely fantastic, as a physician, an expert, genuine caring, holistic approach, sensitive to aesthetic heartfelt with NO ego. A godsend. True professional on all levels. Human touch that cares about me.
Everything was the best!
all OK
Always Excellent
Dr. Aasi is a '10' but that's not a choice!
Dr. Aasi is an outstanding doctor.
Everything about your care is top shelf!
I had a fantastic experience -- Dr. Aasi and her team made a stressful procedure (Moh's procedure on my lower eyelid) relatively easy/easy as possible. I really appreciate how calmly and thoroughly they explained everything.
Dr.Aasi is Aawesome!
very pleased
Decisions about this procedure were made prior to the procedure, and yes, I was informed about them and included in making them. I feel like once the procedure was decided upon there really weren't any decisions left to be made. That being said, at no time did I feel like things were forced on me without my consent. The entire staff was great about keeping me informed and addressing any questions or concerns I had during the procedure.
Professional handling of problem, surgical performance, was of highest nature. Dr. Aasi was much appreciate.
Excellent
Dr. Aasi and her team are an excellent resource for dermatologic surgery. They are a highly professional, courteous, caring, and knowledgeable group!
Dr. Aasi is a thorough, wise, doctor. I can trust her, absolutely!!!
Very good.
Dr Assasi is a no nonsense kind of person really appreciated her knowledge and direct approach.
We felt that she and her care team really wonderful best for my mother-in-law.
Dr Assi seemed eager to finish with me--let someone else do it--"go see a local dermatoligst"
Dr. Aasi is top notch. The doctor who did the stitching was super too; I didn't get her name, however.
I was glad to see concern about my pain level during the surgical procedure. Would have liked a better explanation about why the incision was so much longer than initially planned. I don't think anything the doc did was wrong, I just didn't understand the intraoperative decisions.
very high marks here!
very clear and direct in guidance from Dr. Aasi.
Dr Aasi , Prafulla, Kristine, and everyone who assisted are wonderful, caring, people
Fabulous.
Dr. Aasi and her assistants were absolutely the best one could expect. I really appreciate Dr. Aasi's care and concern.
Excellent experience. I have complete confidence in Dr. Aasi and Dr. Kim (resident).
good
Nurse provider was excellent. Doctor was good, but very quick and although we knew what we needed to do, there was no time for questions.
Dr. Kiao is a fabulous, caring, very knowledgeable Dr.
I am quite happy with the care and skill provided by Dr. Aasi. She is a very good surgeon who is also good across the spectrum of patient care, including compassion and clear communication.
I feel very fortunate that I have the opportunity to experience the care and attention afforded me.
good experience but the doctor always seemed like she was in a hurry. While I understand she may be very busy, I simply wanted a bit more time to help me process the information I was being provided while I was still in a state of shock. My personal vanity may have clouded a lot of the ideas/decisions going through my head but I still have yet to meet with the doctor again to discuss whether or not the Mohs procedure was sufficient in removing all of the melanoma on my ear. I'm sure I will feel more at ease once I meet with her in a few days.
The doctor was very through told me everything I needed.
Dr. Asai is amazing in every way. i couldn't be happier.
Dr. Aasi and her entire staff are top of the top!
Dr. Aasi is so good and i trust her completely.
Dr. Aasi,s competence, concern and courtesy rate an "excellent", and these qualities are reflected in her staff.
she was great! she explained possible outcomes and efforts to ensure the surgery was successful
Dr. Aasi was a pleasure to work through this issue with. She was careful to explain everything to us in a meaningful manner, and we really felt we (my wife and I) were part of the medical team.
Dr. Aasi & her team are TOP NOTCH. I only wish all dr.'s were like her. I felt I was in the best hands.
It is suggested that Stanford Health collaborate with Stanford University to research and perfect cloning. Once cloning is perfected, you may want to consider cloning Dr. Aasi.
Surgeon, resident, nurses - the best!!!
Dr. Aasi is wonderful! Everything she diagnosed and treated was accurate, extremely well-done, and successful. I am much better off now thanks to Dr. Aasi's skill, knowledge and talent. Her advice was very helpful, and completely accurate. Thank you!
Dr. Aasi is fantastic, thorough, and provides excellent service always!
Thank you for your compassion, in addition to your extraordinary skill and talent in every aspect of my care.
Dr Aasi and staff are excellent, and a repeat customer is proof.
Decisions about my treatment are not for me to make, but Dr. Aasi
Everyone, and Sumaira Aasi in particular, was great.
Dr. Aase is a favorite among my experience with physicians. Not only her skill but her demonstrable kindness and manner is rare and greatly appreciated.
Excellent.
very good
they dont get any better tan dr aasi!!!!!!!!!
absolutely trust the provider!
Dr. Aasi is very good!
Dr. Assai is a truly amazing example of someone who is incredibly smart, talented, and extremely skilled and artful at what she does, yet is also kind, thoughtful, very helpful and supportive. The value of her acumen and bedside manner cannot be overstated --this facial procedure felt like it could have horrifyingly brought my deepest fears to life. I cannot imagine having felt like I was in any better hands for this scary experience, than I felt with Dr. Assai (plus with the comforting, efficient & stellar nursing staff Profulla, Susan and Christine) I am deeply grateful to her for removing the unexpectedly large amount of skin CA from my face, while artfully minimizing the disturbing effects and assuring me that the scarring would not be as terrible as it immediately seemed. Although this was the absolute worst & most disturbing medical procedure I have ever experienced, Dr. Assai and her crew somehow managed to also make this the best medical experience I've ever had.
Everyone involved was fantastic
I do every day to everybody.
Probably one of the best derm. surgeons in Bay Area, even recommended by nurses and doctors!
Susan was great...she did the numbing and helped assist during procedure.
really top notch. felt like we were in the best place/hands possible
Dr. Aasi is excellent--very thorough, careful, and knowledgeable. She is patient-centered and very professional.
Dr. Aasi knows her stuff. I would recommend her to another person.
I have recommended Dr. Aasi to several friends already.
I will never be able to fully express my superlatives for all Dr. Aasi does. Her skills as a surgeon are unbelievable, but more importantly her sincere care for patients is an example for all!
First time ever been there or had this procedure so I was nervous and they (all nurses) and especially Dr. Aasi were very caring!
Dr Aasi takes the time to explain possible outcomes, which direction she thinks is best.
good
I feel so fortunate for care from Dr. Aasi and all workers at Stanford Dermatology. Extremely professional.
I have no doubt the Dr. is very good at what she does and I'm pleased with the outcome, but she certainly gave me the impression of having way too much on her plate to spend any more than the minimum amount of time with me, not that I required or expected a lot of hand holding.
Dr Aasi is clearly at the top of her profession. She took the time to answer all of my questions and concerns, and she is very kind and compassionate.
They never appeared rushed. Spent the time with both myself and my husband without looking at watch or looking irritated.
Dr. Aasi is "one of a kind"; brilliant, efficient, compassionate, informed and though "fast" I never felt rushed!
Dr. Aasi did superb technical surgery removing two dermal lesions and was very professional and caring in all interactions.
I have had plenty of experience in my life with other health care providers including UCSF down to for profit clinics. Having had that range of experience I feel completely justified in saying I would (and have) recommend Stanford for any health care need. I have no illusions about Stanford being inhumanly perfect but, you guys are as good as health care can get in this day and age.
I have already recommended Dr. Aasi to a friend. She is a no-nonsense physician but her compassion is very evident.
Dr Aasi and staff are excellent!
As alway, Care Privider was respectful, professional and I had complete confidence in her.
dr Aasi is outstanding
Very nice and knowledgeable people.
Very pleasant a bit officious (moves very quickly), but absolutely did stop & respond fully to my questions.
Excellent experience.
I have seen a many good doctors at Stanford, but Dr. Aasi is the best. She puts everything into helping her patients.
The care I was give was outstanding.
Dr. Aasi explains so you understand the next step. Also, she gave a good list of dermatologist she recommend as the one I was seeing had left Stanford. Very caring! (And thorough!).
Surgical super hero team! Proficient, confidence in what they were doing.
Very good.
the provider and her nurse were excellent
All nurses and the doctor were highly competent and explained everything very clearly to me, made me feel at ease.
Dr. Aasi was the perfect physician in helping us to understand the patient's options and conditions.
What can I say? You are great!
The entire team was excellent.
Dr. Aasi is the most compassionate and skilled physician I have ever had the pleasure to see for my health care needs. She explained everything in terms I understood. She answered all my questions and showed me exactly what the surgery would involve. She was genuinely pleased with how well I am healing and she has always been available to answer any questions I may send her through MyHealth online. She truly cares and as a result made me feel cared for and comfortable and glad to see her. I would highly recommend her.
I appreciate the high level of communication between Dr Aasi and my dermatologist at Mayo Clinic.
Very kind,caring and professional. She was just so wonderful in all aspects!
Dr Aasi is amazing, knowledgeable, extremely skilled and compassionate. Even called me from out of state to address my concerns.
I cannot imagine a better dr. than Dr. Aasi. Extremely knowledgeable, personal, and skilled. I was fortunate to have her for my Moh's procedure. She is the rock-star class of drs!
Used layperson language. When, as a health professional myself, I wished to know the technical terms, I was given them readily.
I have been cared for by Dr Aasi and her staff three times over several years. Two MOHS and one PDT. She is such a professional. Superb communication. Very caring. Extremely capable. I have never had any wound trouble. My stitches are excellent. Healing is without any pain or bleeding. I am very grateful for the quality care I receive
Dr. Aasi was excellent!
I really liked the dermatologist - she spent quality time with me and answered all my questions directly and specifically. I feel like everyone I encountered respected me as an informed patient.
Doctor seemed a bit rushed first thing in the morning. Asked questions and asked more questions over my answers. But I would not hold this against her because everything that happened after that was fantastic. She explained everything she was doing as she did it. She gave explanations of good depth and was very willing to answer any questions I may have had. I loved the fact that she explained everything I needed to know to take care of my sutures after I went home AND the best part was that I was also given these instructions in written form which were written with good depth and explanation. I referred to those instructions for 3 or 4 days, as the wound healed and changed. A couple days after the surgery I became concerned that my suture broke. I used myHealth to send a photo of what the sutures looked like and a nurse got back to me within an hour. It really helped to have access to someone from the doctors office to tell me if something was really wrong. As it turned out, everything was OK. I am so glad I didn't have to worry for hours over this needlessly. All in all, my experience was excellent and I can say with confident that I trusted this doctor and felt she had the experience to do what needed to be done. I also really like the fact that all of the doctors notes, biopsy results, diagnosis etc. are in myHealth. This is going to be so important to me in the future.
Even though she was running late, she clearly took the needed time to be thorough.
Both physician and nurse were completely prepared and ready for me. They worked well together.
Dr. Assi is a fantastic doctor and so is the team that assists her.
The sugary went very well with no pain at all.
I feel like I'm an integral part of the time and that my concerns really get addressed.
Dr. Aasi is the most compassionate Doctor I have ever met. She was kind, caring, and very professional. Everything about my procedure was explained to me in terms I understood. I was very fortunate to have her as my surgeon.
This doctor and her assistants were extremely professional and courteous.
I can't say enough good things about my experience.
Dr. Aasi is an excellent surgeon and I am very glad to be treated by her. Have a high degree of confidence in a way she did a procedure.
Very good on my service.
Doctor Aasi is the greatest!
I have never met a better doctor than Dr. Aasi. She is brilliant, caring, beyond knowledgeable and delightful.
I like her...she is very professional
Very competent and professional
Dr. AasI is great!
She is outstanding. Dr. Aasi & her staff.
I have seen many good doctor a Stanford but Doctor Aasi is a notch above. A really terrific person & doctor.
I especially appreciated the thoroughness of Dr. Aasi's explanation to me about the various viewpoints regarding my earlier left cheek surgery and why this additional one was necessary. It was very open in a way that I wish more doctors would follow. '
Good.
All excellent.
The nurse was excellent and the doctor top notch!
I tell everyone how great my Dr. and her staff are with me and my family.
Excellent.
Good all around.
Dr. Aasi is an outstanding physician/surgeon. She has vast expertise, is most knowledgeable about her profession, is caring, is decisive, and concerned about my welfare. I can tell she is an excellent trainer and is a good director of her surgical team.
only complaint was the numbing process could have been more considerate. I brought a driver so I could have something for the anxiety. Right after I was given it, the needles started without any reprieve. Be considerate of patient's fears.
Dr. Aasi is incredible! Her professionalism, dedication, and concern and brilliance are superlative!
I thought it was wonderful that she offered me the opportunity to view the cyst that she was removing. I think she could tell that I was interested.
Solid staff and a good experience.
EXCELLENT
Dr. Aasi and her staff were excellent. My husband has had several surgeries performed by Dr. Aasi so I have seen her wonderful abilities and manner at all times.
I was very impressed with the whole team and the time taken to answer my questions. A first class experience.
Excllent
One of the best medical experiences. Dr Aasi and Christine Ignacio were skilled, informative, patient and friendly. Could not have been better.
They gave me Excllent Care also my family was informed on every thing. very good
All around very efficient.
Very good really enjoyed having Sumaira Zareen Aasi MD do the procedure.
Dr Agasi is amazing. so lucky to have her treat me. she is kind, thoughtful and her work is beautiful.
Dr. Aasi was incredible. She was generous with her time and took very good care of me. Her surgical skills are very impressive and I could not be happier with the treatment I received.
Dr. Aasi is wonderful & always takes time as needed.
my relatives and neighbors agree Dr Aasi is doing a great job on my face.
I couldn't have asked for a more competent, professional, comforting care provider.
again, the care I received from the doctor was superb.
Good
the doctor and nurses did a wonderful job
Dr. Aasi is very caring and thoughtful and gives me detailed explanations that I so appreciate.
I'm so impressed. And so happy to have found Dr. Aasi and her team. The whole team has a wonderful professional demeanor while also being warm and patient. All my questions were taken seriously, and explanations were given appropriate time. There was genuine concern for my comfort (both physical and otherwise). I have the utmost confidence in the work done, and will refer my family if there is any need for them to have such work. Thank you to Dr. Aasi and her team!
Dr. Aasi was very helpful. She took the time to answer my questions, and she was caring and personable in understanding my worries. That gave me a lot of comfort.
Great service and care concern
very pleased with everyone interacting with me
Dr. Aasi is always very forthright about any procedures she is doing, demonstrates concern about my welfare and is very thorough in her evaluation and reporting back to me on what the results of the procedure/s are. I have great confidence in her abilities as a surgeon and medical practitioner.
Good.
Great Doctor
Dr. Aasi is wonderful. love the way she cares and explains.
I come all the way from Berkeley to see Dr. Aasi....She is kind and answers all my concerns but most important I totally trust her.
Considering her busy schedule, thought my care provider was quiet solicitous & generous with her time, balacing efficiency of treatment. And made sure I was CLEAR on everything.
So good.
Dr. Aasi's dermatological surgery was excellent. I can highly recommend her.
She is excellent on all counts.
Dr. Aasi and her entire staff are such an excellent team. They informed me of everything that they were doing before, during and after the procedure. I was in great hands. I feel lucky to live in the Bay Area and I am very fortunate to have access to such high quality, experienced medical professionals like Dr. Aasi and all of her nurses. They are the best.
My surgical team was great!
Excellent surgeon!
Excellent Doctor (and team), but under time pressure.
I cannot say enough about the immediate and wonderful care provided to me by Dr. Sumaira Aasi. First of all, I dropped in to see if I could get an early-morning "drop-in" appointment with someone at the clinic and Dr. Aasi was very gracious to see me before she started her appointments for the day. She was very conversational about what she saw in my healing wound and was forthcoming to explain to me everything she was thinking about the wound, how I could improve my wound care, and assured me that the wound was NOT infected, which is what prompted me to stop by the clinic in the first place. Dr. Aasi spent precious time explaining to me how to improve the care of my wound, exposing it to air to let it dry, keeping it dressed with Vaseline, and making sure that I had a follow-up appointment with Dr. Hollmig (the original surgeon) the following week. Dr. Hollmig was not in the clinic that day. Dr. Hollmig did a follow-up call later that day. I don't know what I did to deserve the VIP treatment...possibly they had me confused with someone on Trump's Transition Team...who knows...but I was receiving First Class treatment!!! I felt very cared for and it was made very clear that I was to call at any time if I felt the wound was not healing as it should or if I became concerned about infection. Dr. Aasi also noted that I had a severe athlete's foot skin condition and she prescribed Econazole cream which has since cured a chronic leprosy-like skin problem which I have had with both feet forever. As I stand right now, I have a rather extraordinary condition of Extremely Happy Feet!!!
Dr. Aasi is an outstanding clinician and a very kind person.
I really can't imagine a better experience!
These will all be great because it all went as well as could be
Dr. Assi was rushed as she had too many patients. She was good and attentive, but still rushed.
Excellent
Dr. Aasi is an excellent physician who has the ability to put me at ease very quickly. She and her staff provided me with very good care.
Dr Asii is very involved, courteous, and caring. Makes sure I understand everything.
Dr. Aase is a dermatology superb surgeon, the best I have ever had.
I am really happy with all the care and services I received here!
Excellent!
I have only the most favorable comments about Dr. Aasi (who had operated on me a few years ago and wisely advised me on a possible cancer problem which resolved itself as she had suspected). She has amazing surgical skills, excellent communication and it shows that she obviously cares a great deal about her patients and their healthy outcomes. I think she is the best doctor I have had in my 85 years. I had initially gone to my local eye doctor for a possible stye and was delighted to discover that his surgical colleague regularly cooperates with Dr. Aasi on this kind of problem!
excellent from start to finish
Dr Aasi is very kind and care about her patient. She gave me good explanations about my condition and gave assurance for my worries. Her assistants or team members are also very helpful, friendly and courteous.
Dr. Aasi & her staff are outstanding.
After evaluating the site for MOHS, Dr. Aasi recommended monitoring rather than proceeding. I agreed with her recommendation.
Dr. Aasi is very kind and care about patient, she performs an excellent excision the cyst on my back and exams throughout. Her team members are also very helpful, friendly and courteous.
Dr. Aasi is one of the best doctors that we ever met. She was very concern about my moms condition that she wanted me to bring her back the next day so the doctor could check on her progress since she was bleeding a lot and a few other medical concerns. Made me feel good about that.
Dr. Aasi was able to talk and work at the same time - clear & responsive.
Treated the problem I was referred for and also suggested and provided other treatments while I was there. Excellent care!
Dr. Aashi is awesome. I would recommend her very highly. She is an expert, an excellent doctor and a compassionate person. I felt very lucky to be able to get her for my surgery.
Dr. Aasi (dermatologist) is the best.
I definitely had confidence in this person.
some small difference between verbal and written instructions regarding care.
Dr. Aasi did the hard part of surgery, Dr. Kuo did all the graph & stitching for (1/2 hrs.) Both were exceptional professionals. Very caring and skillful.
I couldn't be more pleased or impressed with Dr. Aasi. She shows genuine caring and spends as much time as necessary with me. Since I will be away from the Bay Area for awhile, she suggested we stay in touch using photos and messages on MyHealth so she can monitor my progress. This is great!
Dr. Aasi is very competent and a good communicator
Dr. Aasi is fabulous! I feel very blessed to have someone of her caliber. Thank you Stanford Health Care!
Excellent experience with the surgeon. Kept me fully informed. Answered all of my questions. Made it clear that I could get in touch any time with concerns after I went home.
She is an outstanding professional. I had every confidence in her judgment.
Dr Assi was wonderful! Explained the procedure, the options, and the follow up care....very supportive and caring.
Dr. Aasi and the very competent staff gave me outstanding care and follow-up care.
During my past surgeries, the surgeon explained the complete process before they began. This procedure was explained to me briefly.
5-Star treatment and care. Dr. Aasi and her well-trained residents and nurses were exceptional. The skill, care, coordination and teamwork they displayed during my six-hour "procedure" was quite simply superb. I was in the good hands of great people. Whew!
Dr. Aazi is such a friendly, compassionate human being. We couldn't feel more confident or reassured with her care.
Dr. Aasi is an excellent doctor. She discussed all of the options with me. The surgery went very well and she explained everything. I would highly recommend her and her staff.
Dr. Aasi was very credible - she explained things clearly and concisely and didn't ever make me feel rushed. Mauricia tailored my after-care options to the fact that I would have a hard time changing the bandage, and both made me feel like I was in the best possible hands. I felt so comfortable the whole time - to the point that I almost forgot that I wasn't there for an elective surgery.
I was very impressed with Dr Aasi and her resident. Both were very professional and had a very nice personal manner.
I loved Dr. Aasi and have already recommended her to a friend looking for a derm surgeon. She didn't seem rushed, took time to explain everything, and made me feel very relaxed. And her technique is impeccable - I felt almost no pain and there was no bruising, which is impressive given the depth of the procedure!
Dr. Aasi is an extremely knowledgeable and skillful surgeon. She explained things very well also.
We felt very confident with all of the providers that we worked with on that day. It was a pleasure working with them.
Wonderful Dr. and staff.
After this experience, I would not want any other care provider. I would and will recommend her to anyone and everyone who might need dermatological surgery in the future.
Care provider recommended further evaluation by other providers ,but referrals were never made. I even send two messages regarding this .but never received an answer.
Beyond excellent
Dr. Aasi is a TERRIFIC surgeon.
Dr. Aasi is stellar. This is my second surgery with her and she does a great job genuinely listening to me, keeping me informed of what is going on, and working with me to determine the best options for my specific situation.
Friendly & excellent care was given to me by all who attended
Really appreciated the time she took to talk through options, so we could do the minimally invasive procedure in the end.
Dr. Aasi is simply the BEST. She took care of my son and now takes care of me. She and her staff are very caring, friendly and they show me they really care. I know I'm in good hands with Dr. Aasi and that she will take very good care of me.
Dr. Aasi always tells me what is available for me and lets me make decisions for follow up treatment.
Superior care.

Dr. Aasi's entire staff was friendly, professional and informative. The actual surgery and procedure was 1st class in every way.
Dr. Aasi provided excellent, compassionate care for me during the surgery and during the follow-up visit. I have recommended her to my primary care physician for any patients who need dermatological surgery.
Dr. Aasi is the ideal dr./surgeon. She is kind & understanding, has a great sense of humor and yet is superb in her practice, as well as managing her staff & department. I cannot say enough good things about her.

Dr. Aasi is fantastic - very professional, caring & calls me by name - I feel I am not a number!

Dr Aasi was fantastic. She included me every step of the way and made sure I was comfortable and confident in every decision.
Always very good!
Would highly recommend. Dr. Assi took care of my son which is why I elected to continue treatment for her Everyone is just awesome.
Dr. Aasi is a wonderful physician. My surgery was delayed due to circumstances outside her control, but she called me herself to apologize. I am very happy with how surgery went and the level of care and consultation I was provided. Highly, highly recommend her to anyone.
I have been seeing Dr Assi for a year. She performed Mohs surgery on my nose which ended up needing a graft. She was extremely capable and her manner was both caring and professional. I had a few issues around the problems listed above. i would email her through My Health and either she or one of the nurses would get back to me the same day. I was able to send them photos through my Health which was very helpful. They always responded very quickly and addressed my concerns and answered my questions. Dr Assi and her team have always consistently been the best!
Highly competent and professional
Dr was very sharp, Knew her stuff, very polite.
Dr. Aasi is the model of what every physician should be. She is extremely skilled, knowledgeable, and confident. Her assisting medical team is outstanding. I am lucky to have access to Dr. Aasi and her team for my medical needs.
All of the staff that participated in my treatment that day were caring and very communicative. I felt that I mattered aa an individual, not that I was just another body to be worked on.
Dr. Aasi is a total professional. She makes me feel very well cared for. She really cares about the outcome of my procedure.
Dr. Ausi was a fine example of Stanford excellence. THE BEST.
The MA was the primary contact on this appointment, with Dr Aasi coming in to the room to check on the progress. I was very comfortable with the arrangement.
Dr. Assi even had Dr. Badger come in before the surgery.
The doctor and all other care staff were excellent.
excellent
Everything was extremely well done -- appointment went exactly as I had been told and everyone was at their CICARE best.
I received excellent care from the nurses to the doctors to the administrative staff.

Dr. Aasi is excellent and her group of women are excellent!!!!!
the best
The entire derm/surg team were outstanding including the wait /coffee room providing fresh fruit and pastries.
My experience at Stanford Dermatology couldn't have been better. I had an outstanding surgeon, Dr. Aasi, who performed a successful procedure.
Very thoroughal. I couldn't have asked for more, everyone was exceptionally wonderful. Again, not sure 5 is high enough
I have seen Dr. Aasi for 4 years and have always found her to be a consummate professional. She has superb knowledge of her field; is wonderful at communicating what needs to be done, what the options are, and what the pros and cons are; is meticulous in her practice as a surgeon; is caring and compassionate in dealing with patients; and has recruited and maintains a wonderful support staff of nursing professionals.
best medical experience I've had
I've mentioned this before: I consider myself fortunate to be in Dr. Aasi's care. She is always medical perfection personified.
Dr. Aasi and her team (Dr. Gee, resident and Christina Saucedo (Clinical Nurse) provided me with absolutely superior medical treatment and care. They all made me feel comfortable for a truly uncomfortable procedure and I felt I was under the care of very competent and extremely nice and respectful health care providers. I don't think it gets much better than this. Dr. Aasi has an especially comforting bedside manner and it is clear she is excellent at what she does. Dr. Gee's bedside mannner as a resident was also exceptional and I'm sure he will make a very fine Dermatologist or Dermatology surgeon, if that's the path he chooses. I am very grateful that I was able to receive such excellent from this amazing Stanford team!
Some printed post-surgical instructions were incorrect.
Excellent doctor
The Doctor was so good that I didn't even bruise!!
Dr. Aasi gave me information about possible variations in the cost of the medication depending on the insurance company or pharmacy. This was very helpful.
I consider myself very fortunate to be in Dr. Aasi's care and I've told her so. She never fails to listen carefully to anything I have to say and our relationship relative to my care is best described as collaborative. Most important, she never makes me feel rushed or that our meeting has to be hurried along. I realize she's busy and has other patients to see, yet we manage to use our time together efficiently and we all come away satisfied.
All experiences have been excellent.
Dr. Aasi is one amazing doctor. She showed concern, answered all my questions - She really went above and beyond. She even answered a medical question my friend had. We love Dr. Aasi.
