I was seen by Dr. Longin for the first time the other day. She is very knowledgeable, caring, reassuring, and is one of the best dermatologists I have ever gone to. I am so glad that I had my appointment with her and am looking forward to my next visit. Her assistant is very good as well. read more

Dr. Longin is not only an excellent dermatologist, but also a warm, gentle, and genuinely caring person. Seeing her is like being with your favorite cousin you just don't get to see enough of. She's the rare doctor I truly look forward to seeing, and feel better in every way after doing so. She's treated me for half a dozen different skin and hair issues, and I feel lucky to be counted among her patients. Thank you, Dr. Longin! read more

They do not honor insurance contracts. The office staff does not know what they are doing and lied to me over and over. I made an appointment 3 months out. When it was almost time -they called and said the doctor would not be available. They cancelled my appointment. I would not be allowed to make another appointment WITHOUT A REFERRAL. I told them I have a PPO (which means I can go direct to my choice of doctor). They said my INSURANCE HAD CHANGED. I called my insurance and it had NOT CHANGED. So I called them back and they said -well actually- its their OWN OFFICE POLICY that had changed - because its easier for them. They are backed up. (They felt it was ok to just LIE to me). They insist its their right to demand a referral from PPO patients, even though THAT IS THE DIFFERENCE between HMO and PPO Insurance policies. read more

My wife, Jackie W. wrote a bad review and got deleted by Yelp HQ. I guess this is a paid ad so Yelp deletes or hides bad reviews. It was sad that if they delete my review, clients in the future would not know how she wrongfully removed my 2 out of 3 moles last September 2014. I informed Dr. Longin as soon as I noticed the mistake, that she removed wrong moles, above my temple and at my back. They ignored my complaint. They did follow up call but never cared about my complaint and did not do anything. They explained that they were trying to get ones covered by insurance but nothing was covered and still have moles I dont want. read more

Helena A Longin, M.D - This is the mole that I wanted her to remove and she removed the wrong one. You can see the scar right next to it. - Dermatologists Near Me - Santa Rosa, California

See all

Dr. Longin was thorough and did a fine job with my visit. I am pleased with the medical services/advice provided and will surely be coming back! Thank you, Dr. Longin! L. S. read more

First impression was "Wow shes gorgeous!" but I was in pretty serious pain at the time, so that really didn't matter much. She fixed my skin in just a few visits, a problem that had felt like it was killing me for half a year. As sappy as it sounds "She's my hero." She is gentle and kind, and it genuinely feels like she cares about you the patient. If you have a skin problem you think you might want checked out, I seriously doubt there is a better doctor to see in California. read more

Just met with Dr. Longin this morning. She is thorough and fabulous!! She is the most informed and caring dermatologist I've met this far in life. She had tons of great information, she gladly answered all my questions, and she just went above and beyond my expectations. Highly recommend her! read more

After seeing a handful of doctors and dermatologists about my acne, Dr. Longin finally found my cure. I originally started going to her from a recommendation after she treated my friend's acne as well. She's literally the most knowledgeable Derm I have ever had and I'm so glad that she helped me. She also did a fantastic job both in mine and my friends biopsies. Barely any scar and short recovery! She's also very attentive to detail and followed up with me after she hadn't gotten results from my blood work, which is really great of them. Totally recommend her. read more

Dr Longin has been my dermatologist for a few years now. She's thoughtful, efficient, communicative, on time, caring and helpful at every appointment I've had with her. She's also resolved an issue I've had for 10+ years with a slow and patient treatment. I think she's wonderful, I just wish she were available in a reasonable timeframe rather then months away when you call in for an appointment (not her fault). I highly recommend her if you can wait!! read more

Went for my first visit today and was very pleased by the entire staff. Dr. Longin herself was extremely nice and knowledgeable. It was great that she explained things thoroughly so that treatment/procedures made sense to a non-medical professional such as myself. I left the office with a clear conception of what we discussed and was very happy that I was referred to her as my dermatologist. read more

The greatest Physician I have ever seen. Dr. Longin has taken on my concerns as well as the rest of my family. She listens and educates you on the diagnoses and makes sure you do not feel rushed during your appointment. The staff that support her are as equally amazing. I use to think Dermatology was a very cosmetic practice but since establishing care with Dr. Longin I have learned how important it is to take care of your skin. read more

Dr. Longin cares for my teenaged daughter, and follows-up with great care and compassion. She wants to be sure both of us understand the care she's giving and the reason for it. I particularly appreciate the time Dr. Longin spends talking with my daughter, and the information she offers about the dangers of too much sun and too little sunscreen! Having a professional like her answer any questions or concerns we might have and explain that she honestly hopes she won't have to see her as a patient, is most reassuring. The years of experience Dr. Longin has coupled with her kind and compassionate nature make seeing her a delight! Her staff is equally competent and kind, as I wrote in my review of Dr. Longin's colleague in the same office, Dr. Oganesyan. In my opinion Sutter hit SEVERAL home runs when they found these two Doctors and ALL their Staff!! read more

Dr. Longin is sincere, compassionate and empathetic. She was very careful and gentle while removing a couple of moles to be biopsied. I have been to many dermatologist and would highly recommend Dr. Longin. read more

I don't know where to begin about Dr. Longin; as she has been incredibly helpful and kind to my father. He has been seeing her since September 2014. Dr. Longin is patient, understanding, and really wants her patients to understand what is happening to their skin and why. She has helped him ease his pain from some terrible rashes he had, and I know it's made his daily living much more tolerable. Dr. Longin takes care of our families dermatological needs, and we wouldn't go ANYWHERE else. Thanks Dr. Longin - we all look and feel better! read more

This is not a review of the doctor but of the office staff. They booked me three months out, after arriving for my appointment they said the doctor was out sick (didn't bother to call and tell me). They rescheduled me for the next week. After arriving and waiting half an hour they told me they couldn't see me due to a bureaucratic reason. Extremely inefficient and a waste of time. If your time is valuable, don't book here. read more
