About Me
As a dermatologist, I’m passionate about quality, patient-centered care. I specialize in general dermatology with a subspecialty clinical interest in hair loss and scalp disorders.
I trained at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center as a resident and am excited to now serve the community as an academic dermatologist. I will continue to pursue research efforts and clinical trials to improve treatment options for dermatologic diseases. My particular research interest is in scarring and non-scarring alopecia.
In my free time, I enjoy trying new local restaurants, hiking, kayaking and spending time with my family.

As of 09/29/2023, Dr. Trovato has reported no relationships with companies or entities.
Dr Traviato is a wonderful doctor and has always gave excellent care.
The Dr should have explain further why it was necessary to biopsy an area that had been previously checked during routine exams over the years by different providers without concern.
When I brought up questions, she barely acknowledged them, and told me to call back later if I wanted to discuss. I wanted to discuss right then but she was halfway out the door already.
All good
She left me quickly when I was trying to explain something.
Dr is very personable!
Extremely gracious and professional
She was very thorough
Very knowledgeable about my condition and explained well
Good
She was very efficient. She was pleasant and answered my questions.
She had great bedside manner, was thorough, and professional.
I've been seeing Dr. Trovato for a few years now. I always have a good experience.
Very thorough and she made me feel comfortable
She knew immediately what I was dealing with. After 6 months or more of guessing or being prescribed the incorrect medication, it felt great to finally have an accurate diagnosis.
Excellent care!
Reassured my confidence
Respectful, knowledgeable, very understanding of my situation, hopeful for a good outcome
Very friendly and attentive to my problem.
Very good
She was just excellent. Knowledgeable. Friendly and kind.

Professional, friendly, thorough and easy to understand.
Excellent she is so wonderful
Clear and empathetic
Excellent
Provider was friendly and gave great info.
I trust the provider.
Attentive
Provider went through my exam thoroughly and answered my questions I had. I had a rash on my back and she prescribed a lotion or cream for it. My rash is going away.
She was very personable and cared a lot. She made me feel heard and understood. I have no complaints!
The provider took time to address any concerns that I had. They listened and I did not feel that the appointment was rushed. There was discussion about the treatment plan not just them telling me what to do. There were three options laid out for treatment and we had an open dialogue about the options. It was very refreshing.
She was vague with my skin exam and seemed a bit dismissive with my issues.
They were very brief and did not obtain a full history. I also feel like she did not perform an exam and made an assessment by glancing from the doorway. Prescribed a medication in less than 5 minutes. The appointment felt rushed and I did not feel confident about the assessment or treatment plan.
My doctor was thorough and detailed. She presented easy to understand solutions.
Dr. Trovato listens to me, explains thoroughly what she is going to do, and consistently shows that she cares about my well-being. I could not be more satisfied with the quality of the services she provides.
Professional, knowledgeable, explaining the process
She was very kind and thorough, provided a lot of reassurance.
She goes out of her way to get me on in a very timely manner. See took very good care of me.
Doctor talked a lot. Very scripted and a bit robotic. I don't think she was expecting much of an answer. Though she did chit chat - it didn't seem natural - just filling airtime. I would have liked more thorough looking at skin and less talk. I had to wait longer than expected in the exam room . I was told she would be right in.
She was quick, didn't take much time to view my skin problem. But she explained things very well.
I waited a year to see this doctor at the hair loss clinic. At the appointment I verbally gave her my history, and asked questions regarding things I've researched. The doc answered my question, but I needed her to break down the info she provided because I was unfamiliar of what the issue was. Also she didn't offer any solution or regimen to help me. She did not recommend another appointment for updates. All she stated was there was nothing that could help. I was shocked that I was in a hair loss clinic due to her response. I asked what was the hair clinic for or do. She responded drawing my blood to deposit plasma to treat hair loss, but it probably wouldn'thelp. To me that is not a hair loss clinic, and it's misleading patients. It's hurtful, and a waste of my time. Remember I waited a full year to see a doctor from the hair loss clinic. In addition, I felt rushed, but she did notice I had dandruff and prescribed a shampoo. Although my experience with the doctor was not expected, she was kind.
Felt that she was on a hurry or rushing. I expected at least a referal for an endocrinologist when I mentioned I'm worried my acne is related to ovarian cyst. She just said she treats acne only, and I would need to see PGyn or endocrine.

I wish she would have pointed out the issues my skin has and how I could improve...besides the "wear suntan lotion".
I am very pleased with Dr. Trovato. She is very knowledgeable, answers all questions.

Compared to my only other dermatology visit to check for skin cancer several years ago, Dr. Trovato was much more thorough in her exam and asked more questions. I am very satisfied.
Dr. Trovato is outstanding. She treated me with respect and displayed great competence, knowledge and professional attitude in addressing my questions. Best skin evaluation by a dermatologist that I have experienced in a long time.

She is amazing and kibd
Very affable
Absolutely love Dr. Trovato & Dr. Dalmage. Dr. Trovato saw me as an emergency appt., then went on maternity leave. Dr. D. Imgge covered and I've stayed with her. Love both of them.
She described everything very clean.
I have always had very good experiences with any and all Ohio State medical professionals.
The care provider was very knowledgeable.
Great job.
She was very friendly, explained what she was doing. But BEST of all, the medicine she prescribed it working amazingly! For the first time in years I'm not embarrassed of the UGLY spot on my foot! Looking forward to sandals & pedicures again!!
Excellent.
The provider did not address all my concerns.
I have never had an experience with a doctor that was even close to this awful. I have had great experiences with most other doctors I have come into contact with for both my and my children's health needs.I keep trying to think of how exactly to explain this, and every time I try and explain the entire experience, it gets a little convoluted. Ultimately what it comes down to is the bedside manner was the worst I have ever experienced. Instead of feeling confident that I understood my condition and what I needed to do next, I've felt awful, angry, and demoralized. From my perspective the doctor was dismissive and patronizing. Patients are just people. Just like Internet interaction you have with any other person you want to be heard and valued. That goes to the butcher at the grocery store, your yoga, instructor, your friends and your doctor.I have no idea what was going on for her that day. Perhaps it was an off day I think you never know what's going on in somebody else's world.
This was my first visit with this doctor. She was very welcoming and kind.
Understanding and intelligent
Dr. Trovato was excellent at listening, diagnosing the problem, and providing guidance as well as reassurance.
Answered my questions and concerns, but felt like she was in a rush to get me out of there
Very friendly, explained things well, ask questions and asked my wishes for treatments offered .
She seemed to be in a hurry and was dismissive of my concerns
Excellent provider
Dr Trovato wanted to answer any questions I had about my skin and I never felt like she was trying to rush me or her assistant.
Dr. Trovato was very attentive to my concerns and gave great suggestions for my skincare.
Good listener.

All was very good.
The Provider was VERY helpful, informational and came off as giving more effort than most other providers I have had in the past.

Concerned, very knowledgeable, very professional.
Mostly painless and I'm still alive,soVery good

She did not seem fully interested in my skin health. I was quite disappointed in the abbreviated answers and it seemed like she was in a rush to get to the next patient.
Friendly and calm, not rushed. Thorough explanation
To the point and kind
Informed, friendly, and caring
She is excellent! She listens, is kind and tells me without asking what different moles are and whether she has a concern
