I really liked the NP Katy at the Newton office. She made what could have been an uncomfortable exam feel relaxing and easy. I will continue to use her as my Dermatologist. I give her 5 stars!

It was our first time seeing Katy Duffy. Really liked her. She was genuine- thorough- and I look forward to seeing her again. I think she had my best interest in mind when she took care of my skin.
