The Woodruff Institute for Dermatology & Cosmetic Surgery

Dr. Heather Pontasch and the clinical team at The Woodruff Institute are amazing and very skilled. I received excellent service and had my questions answered. It was a first class experience.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had an outstanding experience with Woodruff Institute, especially under the care of Dr. Rebecca Lambert and her professional team of PA's. From the start, they took the time to carefully identify and isolate my specific problem skin areas instead of rushing through the appointment. Dr. Lambert explained everything clearly and professionally, making sure I understood both the condition and the treatment options. I never felt uncertain or overwhelmed — just confident that I was in expert hands. The procedures were surprisingly painless, and the follow-up care has been just as thorough and attentive. It’s rare to find a medical team that combines skill, clear communication, and genuine patient care so well. Highly recommend for anyone looking for knowledgeable, professional, and compassionate dermatology services.

I believe I have never had a better dermatology experience than at Woodruff. I came from Chicago, required a minor follow up from Northwestern Memorial, and my Dr in Chicago found Woodruff for me. It was a seemless and pleasant experience. Like it should be.

My husband was very pleased with the doctor that saw our son. She was patient and explained in detail everything that was going to happen before she did it. It was an awesome experience.

I encountered a welcoming and efficient professional staff. My treatment and surgery were handled with care and competence. I was treated as a person first with a dermatological issue versus the treatment of a dermatological issue.
