Dr. Pipitone performed surgery on basil cell carcinoma on my ear. She successfully removed the cancer. Throughout the surgery, her communications were excellent. She took great care to confirm that I was not in any pain through 3 rounds of Mohs surgery. Her follow-up after the surgery has been exceptional. She responded immediately to my page to resolve post-operative issues. She promptly prescribed antibiotics to contain infection that was beginning to appear. Overall, I'm very impressed with her professionalism.
