Dr. Cynthia L S Bailey, MD

When my dad was only 40, my mom found a small new mole on his back. Turned out to be Melanoma. He had surgery and had a big chuck of his back removed... That's why I like Dr. Bailey so much because she is very thorough and conservative when it comes to looking at your skin. She is very personable and I never felt rushed. She took all the time I needed to answer my questions. She's also been excellent at making strong recommendation on sun protection. Heck she even convinced me to wear sunscreen most of the time and use a broad brimmed hat. Now I go every year for a checkup. I know I have good skin cancer prevention insurance with Dr. Bailey.

I have been a patient of Dr Bailey for over 11 years. She found my melanoma so early it had not spread outside of the mole. That is a life saver. At her recommendation I see her every 6 months for skin check.

Dr. Bailey is an excellent doctor. She is highly skilled and cares deeply for her patients. I have been a patient for 15-20 years, with numerous procedures and have nothing but the highest respect for her.

I have been a patient of Dr Bailey for more than 20 years. I see her every 6 weeks sometimes more often. She always takes her time with me, explains everything, gives me options. I have an unusual situation but I am very confident in the care I am given. I know she spends a considerable amount of time researching my condition, and is always willing to discuss alternates.

She is passionate about skin care but has a sense of humor about herself. I've been a patient off and on about 12 yrs. I've had various insurance plans and have had to see other plan dermatologists. My daughter does not have insurance coverage and I have to help with her health care costs. When she has skin issues I choose to send her to Dr. Bailey because she is so smart and good. And her fees are reasonable for a specialist.

I am not someone who actually *wants* to see physicians at all unless I absolutely must. My experience with Dr. Bailey and her support staff could not be better. Her front office people are absolutely marvelous and quite easy to deal with even under trying situations. Her professional support staff are superb, not only for the way they accommodate my infirmities but in the way they treat me as a person. I don't think that any organization can be better than the people at Dr. Bailey's - I regard her operation as a kind of home away from home. If you have cause to see a dermatologist and you live within 50 miles of Sebastopol, this is *the* physician to see.

I have been a patient of Dr. Baileys for approx. 20 years. She was recommended to me by an excellent dermatologist who was leaving the area. At the time he told me that she was the BEST in Sonoma County, so I immediately went to see her. I was so impressed by her bedside manner and how comfortable she made me feel. She explained every little detail to me, and she is a skin cancer watchdog. I am generally very afraid of going to the doctors, but she puts me at ease. She has very high standards and very high ethics. I see her on a monthly basis, and I very much look forward to it. She is not only a beautiful caring person inside and out, but she is a brilliant doctor and diagnostician as well. I truly love Dr. Bailey, and I feel that she is a gift to us. Also, her staff is top notch and always make you feel comfortable. I love her assistant Hattie, and Kara the office manager is awesome and always has the answers!All around GREAT practice.
