Dr. LaRusso is fabulous. She is caring and her works shows her skill. She removed a spot on my neck that 2 other doctors refused to touch. Dr. LaRusso did it and there is no scar or issues. She had me come back 2 times to check to ensure everything healed correctly and there was no scaring. She tells you what she is going to do so there are no surprises. If you are looking for a #1 dermatologist you need Dr. LaRusso.

Dr. LaRusso is amazing! I had the Mohs procedure on the very end of my eyebrow and was so worried you would see the scar on my face. Dr. LaRusso took her time and made sure that the scaring was minimal and you can barely see it on my face. Great job by the Dr. and her staff was so nice as well! Highly recommend!

Dr Jennifer LaRusso and her incredible support staff are amazing!
I had the Mohs surgery preformed on my face for the removal of Basil cell carcinoma. For over an hour the Dr and staff had me laying on my side while she stitched me back up.
That hour flew by as they kept you talking about jobs, family and life.
Dr LaRusso surrounds herself and her practice with the BEST!
Waiting room was very clean, modern and up to date!
Thanks for the great care!

My husband and I had our yearly check up with Gerry Stroup. This was our first time with him. We both found Gerry thorough, professional and pleasant. He even had us both laughing and that eases my anxiety with sometimes painful procedures. We will certainly go back to him!

After my initial appointment with Gerry Stroup at the Dover office, I was referred to Dr. LaRusso in the Middletown office for treatment of basal cell carcinoma on my nose. From the Moh's procedure to my follow up appointment today, I have been treated with respect and courtesy by every person with whom I came in contact. My medical care has been excellent. The staff has been exemplary. I have been recommending SunWise to all of my friends. My nose and I are sincerely grateful!

I would highly recommend Dr. LaRusso for surgical procedures. I have had two procedures and I am very pleased. I felt very comfortable during the procedures and very happy with the results. It is so nice to be able to do dermatology reviews and procedures in the same office.

I had 2 Mohs surgeries on my face. One on my nose and one close to my upper lip. I was concerned about scarring but Dr LaRusso did a wonderful job, and you wouldn't even know they're there. I'm very happy with the results.

I had a routine exam with Dr. Gerard Stroup and we found something suspicious on my eye lid so we biopsied the area and came back with Basal Cell Carcinoma, needless to say I was scared not knowing what that meant. The office got me in right away to perform Mohs surgery with Dr. Jennifer LaRusso. The surgery went well Dr. LaRusso was very cautious of the fact that this was a sensitive area . I thought that I was gonna have an awful scar to look at everyday , Dr. LaRusso was patient and very gentle she explained everything before doing any procedures . I am happy to say the cancer is gone and you can barely see a scar . Thank you Sunwise Dermatology of Middletown

I am very pleased with the entire Sunwise Family Dermatology staff. The office personnel are always attentive and helpful, Jerry Stroup does a great job in providing a thorough and effective skin scan and Dr. Jennifer LaRusso is an excellent surgeon as she has recently performed 2 operations to remove both a squamous cell carcinoma on my chest and a basal cell behind my knee. Results are excellent with the complete removal of all cancerous cells and has been accompanied by a speedy and complete healing process. Highly recommend.

Dr. LaRusso is the first dermatologist in whom I have complete trust. I was recommended to her practice by my PA. Dr. LaRusso exudes confidence and provides care in a very friendly, yet professional manner. She has been my dermatologist now for 3 years. During that time I have had a few minor procedures as well as having bi-yearly skin examinations. What is most notable about Dr. LaRusso is that she totally engages the patient in the course of their care. She provides informative answers to questions as well as provides options to any treatment recommendations. Not only is Dr. LaRusso an outstanding Dr., but her entire staff is extremely friendly and professional. Based on my experience as her patient, as well as the feedback I have received from three of my friends I have previously referred, I have no hesitancy in recommending Dr. LaRusso to anyone in need of quality dermatological care

Office site very nice, clean, ancillary staff friendly and personable.
However, Dr. Caputo's appointment style is very fast, quick, in and out.
She does not use anesthetic when removing skin tags no matter the size-not sure if this is because she is so busy and does not want to wait to inject multiple areas and wait for medicine to work or for other reasons perhaps what insurance covers for procedure? I had many skin tags "cut off my body without anesthetic". I kept waiting for her to inject and she kept going cutting them all off, I had blood running down my side. No matter the reason, a patient should not have to ask for anesthetic for removal of anything off their body, that is a given! I had a previous dermatologist that always injected anesthetic and waited for it to work for small and large skin tags-this is standard...
Doctors that charge forward in a hurry and have no regard for patients pain, feelings and ones not following typical standards for dermatology minor procedures do not get my recommendation for referral. I would rather have my insurance pay another practitioner that will keep me comfortable for this type of procedure.
I have left this office. The Hippocratic Oath needs to be reviewed by this practitioner, "Do no harm"...

Ms Patel was very friendly and knowledgeable. She diagnosed thee issues I head and recommended a lotion that I should use. I’ve been very satisfied with her recommendation! She seems to really enjoy her job.

I have been seeing NP Patel for about a year now. It’s such a breath of fresh air to see a NP that smiles every single time you see her, does she ever have a bad day? The staff is very friendly and fast to get you scheduled and in. I highly recommend Sunwise Dermatology!!
