Not
one
to
typically
post
Google
Reviews,
but
sharing
my
experience
with
Dr.
Agha
and
her
team
to
hopefully
help
other
patients
with
atypical
or
cancerous
moles.
Had
I
seen
someone
share
their
experience
on
here,
I
would
not
have
trusted
Dr.
Agha
with
my
skin.
Summary
of
my
experience:
Dr.
Agha
excised
two
of
my
moles
after
pathology
determined
that
my
moles
contained
atypical
cells.
A
week
or
so
after
getting
my
first
mole
excised,
I
noticed
that
my
excision
did
not
seem
to
be
healing
well
&
asked
Dr.
Agha
about
it
when
she
was
performing
my
2nd
excision.
She
removed
a
few
of
the
stitches
stating
that
it
was
a
little
irritated
and
gave
me
Synalar
to
put
on
my
excision.
Shortly
after
that
procedure,
I
noticed
that
my
excision
was
opening
significantly
(despite
me
resting
during
that
time)
&
was
developing
exudate
(which
looked
almost
like
a
tooth
was
growing
in
my
back).
I
began
growing
concerned
about
my
excisions
&
how
they
were
healing,
so
I
reached
out
to
my
best
friendās
mother,
who
is
also
a
dermatologist.
After
looking
at
photos
of
my
back,
she
encouraged
me
to
send
Dr.
Agha
photos
of
my
excision
in
the
patient
portal
for
her
to
provide
medical
advice
on.
She
encouraged
me
to
have
her
re-suture
the
excisions
as
to
avoid
worse
scarring.
Taking
my
friendās
motherās
advice,
I
posted
photos
in
my
patient
portal
&
asked
Dr.
Agha
if
I
needed
to
come
back
in
to
have
them
looked
at.
After
not
getting
a
response
back
from
Dr.
Agha,
I
called
her
office
&
her
Physician
Assistant
informed
me
that
Dr.
Agha
told
her
to
tell
me
that
I
should
let
them
heal
open
as
to
avoid
more
scarring
and
suggested
that
I
clean
them
with
hydrogen
peroxide
and
continue
applying
Synalar
on
the
excisions.
I
went
back
to
my
friendās
mother
&
told
her
that
I
was
informed
to
let
them
heal
open
&
to
apply
hydrogen
peroxide
to
them.
She
was
shocked
by
that
advice
and
informed
me
that
hydrogen
peroxide
would
kill
the
cells
I
needed
to
help
my
wound
heal.
She
then
recommended
that
I
saw
a
Plastic
Surgeon
to
fix
the
work
that
Dr.
Agha
did
as
to
prevent
worse
scarring.
I
then
went
to
a
Plastic
Surgeon
who
also
was
concerned
with
the
medical
advice
and
work
done
by
Dr.
Agha.
He
informed
me
that
the
sutures
she
used,
chromic
sutures,
are
sutures
that
are
often
times
very
aggravating
to
the
skin
&
as
a
result,
not
often
used
or
recommended
by
his
office.
Thankfully,
he
was
able
to
remove
the
exudate
that
had
developed
&
re-suture
my
skin.
The
difference
between
the
work
he
&
Dr.
Agha
performed
was
astonishing.
Thankfully,
my
wounds
healed
wonderfully
after
the
work
my
Plastic
Surgeon
performed.
Why
I
am
writing
this:
I
am
very
lucky
to
have
physicians
in
my
life
who
can
provide
me
with
medical
advice.
Had
I
not
had
access
to
other
physicians,
I
would
have
thought
that
what
I
went
through
was
normal
&
would
have
had
horrible
scarring
on
my
back
compared
to
what
I
have
now.
I
also
am
writing
this
because
my
experience
with
Dr.
Agha
was
further
worsened
by
the
lack
of
communication
with
her
office.
When
I
received
a
bill
in
the
mail
from
Dr.
Agha,
I
emailed
her
&
her
team
asking
if
the
amount
I
paid
my
Plastic
Surgeon
could
be
deducted
from
the
out
of
pocket
amount
I
owed
her.
They
never
responded
to
my
email
&
after
sending
follow-up
emails
&
calling
her
office
-
I
was
able
to
speak
to
Dr.
Agha.
She
was
extremely
defensive
when
she
jumped
on
the
phone
&
started
to
tell
me
that
I
was
wrong
for
going
to
a
Plastic
Surgeon
without
giving
her
a
chance
to
āfix
her
workā.
Each
time
I
tried
to
speak,
she
would
cut
me
off
and
talk
over
me.
As
a
patient
who
has
an
extreme
fear
of
needles
&
had
a
horrible
experience,
getting
yelled
at
on
the
phone
made
this
the
worst
medical
experience
I
have
ever
had.
