Valentina B Sosa, M.D.

The most caring, amazing doctor I have ever had the pleasure of seeing. Yes, pleasure, even though my annual dermatology exam isn’t exactly pleasant.
Dr. Sosa takes all the time she needs for a thorough exam. Yes, this means long waits for an appointment, and even longer waits in the waiting room. Yes, I have waited up to 2 hours past the actual time of my appointment, but it’s worth it. Dr. Sosa must work at least 12 – 15 hours a day with her patients. Even then, I recently emailed her through the Kaiser system about a non-​urgent concern, thinking it would take a few days for response.
I received a reply within 10 minutes from Dr. Sosa herself.
I’m neurotic about my skin because I had a melanoma tumor removed from my back when I was 22. It means the world to feel secure that I am getting the best treatment possible from such a caring doctor.
Oh, and wear sunscreen!
