  • When I see the doctor, they never go follow up with me. It's how is my symptom and how is my result. This is what I always think about MGH. It's very not trust. Because when I see the doctor, it's a different doctor. And the doctor never go call me and update with my itch.

She has stayed by side to get me through this and she provides total body skin checks for cancer for me to help with my P53 gene problem. I have been seeing her for about 17 years and I can't begin to tell you how much I rely on her as my dermatologist to find cancer on my skin. Dr. Lorenzo is a an extremely high value doctor at MGH.
