Dr. Sarin is a very good listener. Her kindness and caring were shown through out our visits and interaction over the past two years. So grateful for her care.

I wish more physicians were like Kavita. This was truly exceptional. She was thoughtful - no cookie cutter diagnoses - she spent time understanding the problem and worked on a smart, efficient solution with me. She was warm and interested in my case, and knowledgeable, yet also considered my ideas and thoughts authentically.
Outstanding. I’ve had several not great experiences with caregivers at Stanford recently, so this one really stood out.

Dr Sarin is spectacularly efficient, smart, and straightforward.
Dr. Sarin was warm, friendly and engaging. I have no complaints about her. She was Covid appropriate. I would highly recommend her.

Dr. Sarin is outstanding
Dr. Sarin has the extraordinary gift of masterful use of clearly-articulated discourse to illuminate for the patient a complex network of connections between symptoms and potential causes, unveiling in a very friendly and easily-comprehensible manner her medical reasoning from premise to conclusion, and thus providing the patient with a clear understanding of the situation, crystal-clear explanation of plan of assessment and treatment, and precise instructions for after-visit care. I have rarely met a medical professional with such an outstanding capacity to communicate clearly and to the point all the relevant information, while also listening and pertinently responding to questions.

Fantastic Doctor Dr Kavita
Dr.Sarin is a GREAT Doc - I am fortunate to have her as my dermatologist
Dr. Sarin is the best dermatologist I have been to. And I have 30 years of derm visits! She is wonderful.
Kavita is amazing. She's got great energy and always has a big smile! I love the way she works with you to figure out the best path in a collaborative method. The best doctor I've ever worked with!
I felt very well considered and cared for. Even got to listen to Classical music during my surgery. They were both really great and accommodating, answering questions, letting me take a look at the mass they removed when I asked, and really making sure everything went well. Really excellent care, which is to be expected with Stanford!
Dr. Kavita Sarin is an outstanding dermatologist. I am convinced of her competence. She exudes knowledge and shares it freely and with kindness. She is so professional and up to date on the minutest details of her profession. She can explain things on the microbiology level to the huge picture so well. She was referred to me as a superb physician by an outstanding dermatologist who we had under our PPO and there is no doubt she exceeds the referral if that is possible! I am very grateful to be under her care for my dermatology needs.
They are always wonderful.
Dr. Sarin is a perfect combination of friendly-but-efficient and knowledgeable-but-concise. And also thorough in reviewing notes and issues from previous visits.
Dr Sarin addressed my concerns in great detail and I left the clinic feeling empowered about the information she gave me from her exam
Dr Sarin is excellent! Patient with me, calm, passionate, and make correct diagnosis! I'm lucky to have her as my doctor
Overall, it was good but nothing special. The doctor took time to answer all my questions and this was important but left as soon as she finished answering and I was left alone in the room wondering what I was supposed to do next! So, I changed and went back to the front desk by myself --- felt a bit strange.
Dr. Sarin is fantastic. She is very professional,kind and caring. I'm delighted I've found a dermatologist I am totally confident in and look forward to my next check up!
Dr. Sarin is highly personable and attentive. What a gem! I very much appreciate her service.
Dr. Sarin is the VERY BEST!!!
Dr. Sarin provided me with excellent care. she addressed every skin condition I was concerned about and treated them right then and there. I raved about Dr. Sarin to my husband and I'm hoping that they will accept him as a new patient as well. She is lovely, very personable, caring and extremely efficient.
Dr. Sarin is very nice, professional & knowledgeable. She is also very patient with me. Very good doctor. Already recommend her to other friends.
Dr. Sarin is great. She has a 10+ of knowledge in her field and has good suggestions. Very good at explaining new options for medicine too.
It was far and she was great. Wish I'd qualified for the clinical trial, but it isn't her fault my condition decided to go into remission, heh!
They are awesome.
Dr. Sarin has a very caring manner. She is an extremely pleasant person.

No concerns. Everything went smoothy with great communication.
Detailed and helpful
Dr Sarin is a great listener, shows genuine concern, and is open to patient input
Dr. Sarin & her resident are excellent.
Dr. Sarin is a superb doctor I could not ask for a better dermatologist.
The doctors are courteous, patient and very professional. At no point did I feel discomfort to discuss any issues or ask questions. We discussed several medications and I was able to make a decision on what seemed right for me. I definitely recommend the Portola clinic to anyone.
My one comment about Dr. Sarin is that she speaks very fast. She is very confident and competent, but it was a great deal of new information and vocabulary for me (a well-educated patient), so it was difficult for me to understand and follow her.
As usual utmost professionalism applied.
Dr. Sarin was very good and very knowledgeable. My only observation is that she talks a little too quickly, making it a little difficult to follow her, especially when medical terminology is used.
very good over all experience
excellent dermatologist
dr was amazing
Most Drs are pretty bright. Dr Sarin is VERY bright. As a research scientist she is on top of the latest developments in the field. I've seen her twice, both times she's asked if I have questions on anything and then spent the time to fully explain the answer.
Dr Sarin is the best.
Doctor & assistant were the best.
Dr. Sarin was superb!
Dr. Sarin is the "best of the best."
It was worth waiting two months to see her.
I understood some/many of the dermatology vocabulary. Dr. Sheu & Sarin were not "rushing out the door' and provided time to answer my questions. Dr. Sheu was patient and Dr. Sarin also provided time.
I felt heard and cared for. Dr. Sarin did not seem in any rush to get me in and out. She focused on me.
Dr. Sarin is wonderful, very wonderful.
Dr. Sarin was excellent, listened to all of my concerns, took the time to explain everything to me, and let me make informed decisions about medication options. I've already recommended Dr. Sarin to colleagues.
Dr. Sarin and Resident Dr. Sarah were both wonderful. I can't say enough about these two splendid people.
I was impressed that Dr. Sarin did not rush the appointment. She was very thorough.
I have recommended Dr. Sarin to others!

During this visit I had two biopsies. The results of these biopsies from the lab doctor were totally over my head. I had to ask the doctor what was meant. She told me in simple terms. "No problem."
Dr. Sarin is outstanding

Would like a complete, in-depth explanation of condition and causes, not just need to know treatment. Holistic treatment options (e.g., diet changes, exercise) should be discussed in addition to traditional western medicine.
Did not seem to understand my needs. At the end of the appointment she realized I actually needed to seen an allergy specialist.
