“I liked that she noticed an issue that I didn’t bring to her attention. She has a great bedside manner and establishes rapport quickly. The only negative was the registration process where we were asked about gender identity and pronouns. That was very unnecessary and highly offensive to me.”

Dr. Bonaccorsi is the author of many peer reviewed articles and has lectured to medical students, and residents, and at national meetings on both general dermatology and tumor immunology. Dr. Bonaccorsi is Board Certified by both the American Board of Dermatology and the Italian Board of Dermatology. She is a member of several professional associations including the AAD, AMDS, AADDSM, and the GSDDS.
Dr. Bonaccorsi is passionate about her profession and enjoys both medical and procedural dermatology. She strives every day to provide the best dermatology care in a compassionate, professional, and personal manner.

The doctor does not seem as if she truly cares about her patients and their concerns. She checked me out for 2 minutes in a condescending way. She did not offer to request labs instead she told me to go to my PCP for them to request labs. The whole visit felt rushed and said she was judging me for even coming. Will not be going back.

Affectionately referred to as Dr.B, she is first, kind. She was comforting. Most importantly, of course, she was super
knowledgeable. I was very discouraged about my symptoms and any kind of possible recovery, but after my visit, I am
confident that Dr.B will help me get to the bottom of it. I'm so glad to be referred to
her by my friend.

I did not have to wait long at all, and was actually brought back to an exam room before my appointment time.
Doctor was very friendly and professional.

I was in and out within 30 minutes. There was zero wait. She did a skin cancer screening, froze a few spots, laid out a plan for those areas, got me set up for my 3 month follow up and prescribed and explained meds all within 30 minutes. The entire staff remained professional, kind and thorough while being efficient. The front office staff said it helped I did all of the paperwork before I arrived.

First time going to a dermatologist! Dr Bonaccorsi and her Assistant were amazing! I was nervous and probably rambling but they were professionals! I am definitely recommending my mother to her practice.
May 10, 2019Stephanie K.Verified patient
I was seeking a new dermatologist as I moved recently. I have always been very proactive with annual skin screenings. It is really important to me to have a thorough exam. She barely looked at me (no checking of scalp, neck, feet, etc.).
She did prescribe me some cortisone cream for a chronic dermatitis issue that I knew about and it has helped.
I won't be going back to this doctor.

This was my 1st visit to May River Dermatology. I found Dr. Bonaccorsi and staff to be attentive, friendly and caring. I appreciated the fact that Dr. Bonaccorsi truly listened to the lengthy history of my specific problem and made note of my interactions with previous dermatologists. Dr. Bonaccorsi’s professional diagnosis differed from my thoughts on the ongoing (for 6-years) skin problem, yet she performed tests in order to assuage my concerns.
More than 1 year agoMelynda V.Verified patient
They informed me that they were running a little behind, so the wait was a bit longer than expected, but it was well worth it. They were so knowledgeable, friendly and compassionate, and made sure I was well-informed of all my options. I have been struggling with cystic acne for almost a decade, but now see a light at the end of the tunnel thanks to Dr. Bonaccorsi & her staff. I am extremely grateful to have found them and am very much looking forward to beginning my treatment plan and many visits to come.

Long wait to be put into a room, but once I was in a room, the doctor came in pretty quickly. She was professional and has cute glasses. The office itself was clean and nicely decorated.
