“Dr. Hai was excellent in every way. She was very thorough, explained the process of biopsy well, performed the anesthetic injection perfectly. She reviewed areas of my skin that I was not presenting for and identified areas of concern I was not aware of. She explained the potential follow up based on pathology reports that would be returned. She asked up front if her assistant could be involved in an educational role. She was extremely professional. I write this as a fellow physician seeing her for the first time, and I am a surgeon and she performed fully to my expectations.”
