First time seeing this dr. but will request her in future.
SHC Patient, Feb 2018
Doctor could have listened more and talked less. Jumped into describing a treatment that I was not interested in pursuing at all (Accutane).
SHC Patient, Feb 2018
She was most concerned about her student. Not about patient.
SHC Patient, Feb 2018
I have the untomost confidence in Dr. Pol-Rodriguez' ability & judgement. She is thorough in everything she has done for me over the last 4-5 yrs.

Dr. Marlyanne Pol-Rodriguez was extremely courteous, professional and caring. She made my first visit at Stanford very comfortable,satisfactory and won my confidence. I am very thankful to the doc for her exemplary patient care and expertise in diagnosing and providing treatment options with data driven explanation. Great job and thank you so much!
SHC Patient, Sep 2017
My only comment is that although my visits are short and timely, sometimes they do feel rushed. They feel as if they are trying to get through as many people as possible rather than slowing down and taking you into consideration when meeting with you.
SHC Patient, Aug 2017
very good
SHC Patient, Jul 2017
Dr. Pol-Rodriguez appears to have correctly and accurately diagnosed my medical condition, after I had consulted at least four other physicians to no avail. I had suffered from the condition for approximately 8 months before Dr. Pol-Rodriguez figured it out. I can't thank her enough. she is a great asset to Stanford Health Care.

dermatologist was INCREDIBLE! Kind, knowledgeable and assuring.

She was accompanied by an intern Dr. Wong. Both of them were great!
SHC Patient, Mar 2017
Fair.
SHC Patient, Mar 2017
dr Pol-Rodriguez was phenomenal in her skill and her method and manner of patient interaction. Model bedside manner. Such excellence that any med student, Derm or otherwise would do well to learn from her and adopt her style. Astounding.
SHC Patient, Mar 2017
First visit with this provider. I usually see Dr. Badger - but, that is weeks out for an appointment with her.
SHC Patient, Jan 2017
I felt rushed since she was already late to my appointment that I didn't ask additional questions.

the providers/physicians are great always!

SHC Patient, Aug 2016
Took time to answer some specific questions I had about sunscreen application.
SHC Patient, Jul 2016
I had been to so many other doctor's and clinics, and they did not give me the care that the fellows/doctors have given me. I have confidence that they will be able to correct my issues
SHC Patient, Jun 2016
The dr. & resident spent a good amount of time figuring out a workable solution.
SHC Patient, Jun 2016
I worked with both a resident, Dr. Shaub (I may have misspelled her name) and Dr. Pol-Rodriquez. Both were outstanding.
SHC Patient, Jun 2016
She is amazing. Stitches were perfect. Her availability for questions is impressive.
SHC Patient, Jun 2016
the appointment was very rushed and I received information from the doctor that I already knew. I was expecting to receive more information and recommended treatment options.
SHC Patient, Jun 2016
I visited Dr. Pol-Rodriguez for removal of skin lesions. I specifically pointed out almost all (except for one) of the lesions that I wanted removed. She forgot 3 of them, all of which were clearly visible right after my appointment. This has resulted in me having to schedule yet another appointment to get the rest removed when they could have been taken care of once if it was done thoroughly.
SHC Patient, Apr 2016
I am confidant that she is "right up" on my problems. I have been seeing her for several months now, and one problem has been improving. A new problem has presented itself, but she is treating that skin problem. No bad experience here.
SHC Patient, Mar 2016
Have already recommended doctor to friend. SHe is the 4th doctor I have before a satisfactory one.
SHC Patient, Mar 2016
Dr. Pol-Rodriguez is very thorough, professional & very friendly and kind.
SHC Patient, Feb 2016
Already recommended her to a friend. I appreciated that she took time to explain my options and HOW my medicine would work.
SHC Patient, Feb 2016
I have had a long history of skin problems and cancer. Dr. Rodriguez has made me feel that I am in the best hands possible for these issues. She is VERY thorough in her exams and when she gives me a "clean bill of health", I believe it and am tremendously relieved!
SHC Patient, Jan 2016
Dr. was very thorough and professional, and made me feel comfortable. It was a positive experience and I would go back to see her.
SHC Patient, Dec 2015
the best!
SHC Patient, Nov 2015

SHC Patient, Nov 2015
Dr. Marlyann Pol Rodrigus is an excellent physician, personable, knowledgeable and understanding. We have recommended her to others.
SHC Patient, Oct 2015
We loved the idea that she spoke spanish since my husband is more fluent in spanish vs, english.
SHC Patient, Oct 2015
Have full faith that this provider is going to help me overcome this medical problem.
SHC Patient, Jul 2015
Dr. Pol-Rodriguez is an excellent over all doctor. Her knowledgeable, care, follow through explanations & personality are all excellent. I only wish more doctors were like her.
SHC Patient, Jul 2015
Good.
SHC Patient, Jul 2015
Single worst experience with a doctor I've ever had in my life. Will not ever return to Stanford for dermatology. Brusque, condescending, had an attitude that indicated she'd rather be anywhere than in the room. Reflects poorly on Stanford. Have not had this experience with other Stanford providers.
SHC Patient, May 2015
I definitely feel cared for.
SHC Patient, Feb 2015
Dr. Pol-Rodriguez is a wonderful dr. She's super nice and explains everything.

Good.

Unfortunately, 2 spots on face were overlooked and it became necessary to come in again to complete treatment.
SHC Patient, Jun 2014
My first experience w/Dr. Pol-Rodriguez was excellent!
