"I was seen by doctor Marta González Cañete. She was punctual, friendly, and provided me with a thorough treatment plan. I also appreciate that she is bilingual, speaking Spanish and English. Additionally, the facility is spotlessly clean. All of the staff at reception were also helpful and pleasant to interact with. I am very satisfied with my decision to establish dermatology care at this practice and would highly recommend it to others. Thank you!"

"IMR Madrid - Castellana is a very clean, efficient and nice facility, the staff is very professional and friendly and Dr. Rodriguez-Villa Lario is very professional and knowledgeable (she also speaks perfect English)."

"Aweful organisation. Out of 3 out of 4 times I went there, they did not even have my appointment in the system. Once it was their IT system failing (I clearly had the confirmation while they didn't), the other two they cancelled without bothering telling me. I really gave it too many tries. They are a lot of well rated dermatology private clinics in Madrid. Don't bother wasting your time with this one."
