“The office was very nice. The staff was very friendly. I didn't have to wait very long at all. The care I received felt like
My concerns were heard and met. The only things that I could possibly think of that could use improvement would be the new patient information form and the wait time on the biopsy.”

Javier treated me how I wanted to be treated as a trans man, which unfortunately is quite uncommon in the medical field.

I’m still in awe of the incredible care I received from Dr. M. Duran and Linda. They were beyond professional and incredibly caring and thoughtful during my very emotional first time as a patient with a full-body skin issue. I felt truly listened to and non-judged, and I genuinely feel the immense support from the entire staff. Dr. M. Duran and Linda are genuinely extraordinary human beings. **ESPECIALLY because I know they’ll say they’re just doing their job.
Thank you, California Skin Institute!
Thank you, Dr. M Duran, Linda and STAFF!
