A truly wonderful experience all round. I am now 12 days from my mohs surgery and have the surface stitches removed. The area has healed well, and the appearance is acceptable for just 12 days out. The bruising and swelling is almost gone, and when the internal stitches dissolve I am confident that the scarring will be minimal. I am so fortunate to have been recommended to Dr. Soleymani by friends.

I was referred to Dr. Soleymani by a friend after a very discouraging experience with another doctor who had misdiagnosed a basal cell carcinoma on my eyelid as a blocked gland. Understandably, the thought of needing Mohs surgery on my lower eyelid was both frightening and overwhelming. From the moment I met Dr. Soleymani and his team at CDMS, however, I felt reassured and cared for. He performed the procedure with remarkable skill, making the experience far more comfortable and less intimidating than I ever imagined. His compassion, professionalism, and expertise are truly unmatched. After this experience, I can honestly say I will never go to another dermatologist. Thank you so much Dr. Soleymani and Josie for being the best of the best. I feel truly blessed to have found you.

He explained everything so clearly and gave us great suggestions on how to care for my son’s skin long-term. I left the appointment feeling more informed and confident about managing his condition.

Dr Black is the BEST dermatologist I have had ever! I’m so LUCKY to have found her. She’s extremely knowledgeable and pro active with my skin health needs. Shes also a great listener which is rare w so many doctors I’ve seen who ignored me or downplayed a very problematic issue that’s been chronic for 5 years. Dr Black is driven by caring for her patients. She’s also so kind, attentive and always makes sure I’m scheduled quickly when I’ve have SOS skin emergencies. I also love that she’s both a medical and aesthetic dermatologist. She’s not only helping me with a problematic skin issue but I know she will be able to help me restore my skin when my treatment plan is complete.
The staff at Dr Blacks office is also exceptional. From the front staff to the nurses…everyone is so attentive, kind and accommodating. As a designer, I also have to comment that their waiting room is light, bright and current. California Dermatology is a gem in Pasadena!

Not all heroes wear a cape and mask. Some wear white coats, like Dr. Soleymani. He is an active listener and puts you first and at ease. When I was diagnosed with melanoma on my nose in 2022, Dr. Soleyman put me at ease when he said: "I'm going to get this, and it's not coming back on my watch." He did exactly what he said he would do and more. His reconstruction of my nose was superior. I cannot be more pleased from beginning to end and with the ongoing follow ups. I feel empowered to improve my own health. His technical competence is beyond reproach, and he uses state-of-the-art surgery techniques. He knows what he is doing. His contributions in the field of Mohs surgery, staining techniques, and directorships are additional proof. Recently, I have been diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma and knowing Dr. Soleymani is doing the surgery, I am inspired with optimism. There is no wait time; he scheduled me on the day I requested. Dr. Soleymani is always on time and very accommodating with his schedule. His support team are equal in stature making for a smoothly-run organization with vigilant follow up on tests, communicating results, scheduling, going above and beyond like you are family. Dr. Soleymani and his team are committed to the profession, to patients, and continued self-improvement. They like people, from this all else follows.
