Jessica Krietchman-Seneca DDS
I visited Dr Ostad for a MOHS procedure. My surgical area was on my chest below my clavicle. With it being a very visible area, my aesthetic results were very important to me. My consult with Dr Ostad and staff made me feel very comfortable and confident in the care I would receive. My procedure went well and it is healing beautifully. I have continued with Dr Ostad, treating other areas of concern. All my questions are answered thoroughly. The staff is very kind and attentive. I will continue as a long term patient with Dr Ostad.

Dr. Ariel Ostad is an exceptional Mohs surgeon and reconstructive physician, and his entire team reflects that same standard of excellence. From the very first consultation, Dr. Ostad demonstrated a rare combination of technical mastery, clinical clarity, and genuine human presence. Mohs surgery--especially on the face--is not only a medical procedure; it is an emotional experience. Dr. Ostad understands this fully and treats both with equal seriousness. Throughout my entire process--from diagnosis, through multiple stages of surgery, to reconstruction and recovery--he was consistently precise, calm, and deeply attentive. He explained each step clearly, never minimizing the complexity of the work or the patience required for healing. His follow-up care was thoughtful and honest, always focused on long-term outcomes rather than quick reassurance. The reconstructive result speaks for itself. Dr. Ostad approaches reconstruction not as a cosmetic afterthought, but as an integral part of restoring both function and identity. His decisions were careful, experience-driven, and deeply respectful of the face as something personal and lived-in--not simply anatomical. Just as important as the physician is the team, and this practice is outstanding in that regard. From the front desk, Amber and Martha set the tone immediately: professional, kind, and unflappably organized. They made what could have been a stressful process feel grounded and humane from day one. On the administrative side, Anne, who handles billing, deserves special recognition. She was clear, patient, and transparent--rare qualities in medical billing--and removed an enormous amount of unnecessary stress during a vulnerable time. And finally, the nursing care was exceptional. Colleen, originally from Minnesota, stood out in particular. Her presence during procedures and recovery was steady, compassionate, and deeply reassuring. She combines clinical skill with a calm humanity that makes an enormous difference when you are literally placing your face--and your trust--in someone else's hands. At no point did I feel rushed, dismissed, or left wondering what came next. Every question was welcomed. Every concern was taken seriously. If you are facing Mohs surgery and reconstruction--especially in a visible or emotionally sensitive area--I cannot recommend Dr. Ariel Ostad and his team highly enough. This is care delivered with expertise, integrity, and real respect for the person behind the diagnosis. -- Andres Aluma-Cazorla, PhD.
