I was hesitant to see a new dermo because I had a bad experience a few years ago, but I'm so very happy I found Dr Abate. She was easy to talk to and answered all of my questions.

I had a large melanoma on my heel a few years back and she kept on top of getting doctors to call me back and set up a sergury. Without her it would probably been more difficult than it was on my end. She has a huge heart and one of the most pleasant doctors I've ever come in contact with. Thank you Kelly Abate

Went for rash review, Dr was very thorough and took her time looking into my situation. I have a follow up appointment in a week that fit my schedule.
