Mary L Lindae MD

This is a doctor who cares about the way you feel from the time you enter until she removes a skin cancer and follows up.  Why would I want someone else?  She's as good as they come.

I am an essential worker and I did not feel comfortable doing a phone appointment with Dr. Lindae because I believe the doctor needs to look at my skin in person. I decided to wait for an appointment until shelter in place was lifted. No problem, right?? ...wrong!  I talked to the receptionist multiple times about this, along with leaving two messages. When I spoke to the receptionist, she was working from home and could not hear me. We were playing phone tag in the middle of my work meetings. I received three phone calls in a row from her even after discussing that I wanted to postpone my appointment. She even apologized because it was bad communication.  It was clear that they could not conduct business as usual in the most effective way during shelter in place, however, I decided to stick with this doctor and show grace. Surprisingly, when I called to make an appointment(as they are now seeing patients in person), I was told "The DR. has decided to release you from her practice." Excuse me?! The reason I was released was, "the phone log shows we called you multiple times."  I am completely baffled at this reason. The receptionist must have failed to log that I talked to her multiple times and left multiple messages as well. I'm shocked and very disappointed in the way this doctor's office has decided to conduct business during the pandemic. My mom and daughter go to this dermatologist, but they will not anymore. In a time where we are supposed to stick together, there are people like Dr. Lindae who fail to see the grace in a situation. As I continue to work as an essential employee in supporting our community, I will be reminded to show kindness to others because I've experienced the exact opposite with this office.

Dr. Lindae was very knowledgeable but I had a spot I was concerned about and my primary doctor had frozen it off and it had returned. He advised me to see a dermatologist if it returned. So I wanted to get it checked out. The reason for 3 stars is that she made the assumption that I was just there for cosmetic reasons and she was condescending. I was in fact worried about this spot being suspicious.She went into a long speech about how she doesn't understand why my primary doctor froze it off and then advised me to follow up if it returned. She also said, "so your mom is a patient, and you've been here before with her, haven't you?" (Nodding her head). I have never been there with my mom. But she seemed to insinuate that I went previously along with my mom and got it into my mind that I could get some cosmetic stuff taken care of. I couldn't get out of there fast enough once she told me it wasn't anything suspicious. A+ for wanting to educate patients, but D- for being condescending and assuming that patients are trying to use your services for something they are not.
