Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Don't Let Dr. Wong Near Your Face! - Palo Alto
I saw Dr. Patricia Wong to have 2 very small brown spots removed. She assured me IPL was the only way to remove the brown spots. She also assured me that no one would be able to tell I had a treatment on my face. Not only did she give me 2nd & 3rd degree burns, she tried to cover it up and said the burns were because of the sun damage under my skin. I asked her why she said no one would be able to tell I had a treatment? She replied, "How was I to know you had that much damage under your skin?". I had to go back to work looking like a burn victim and she said just tell people you had a "beauty treatment". That's what I call empathy. I got 2nd opinions from 3 other doctors and they all said the burns never should have happened. Dr. Wong used too much power. They said they have never seen a result like the burns I got. The burns were bad enough, but the cover-up was worse. When I confronted her about what the other doctors told me she said she would give me a refund. I receive a letter from her that I will get a refund if I sign a confidentiality agreement. That's when I decide to sue her but her attorney is negotiating to run out the clock. You only have 12 months to get the case filed. Don't make the mistake I made and trust this women. BTW, her prices are outrageous. The other doctors told me they have their nurses do the IPL and have never had one burn.
