Linda E Fancher, MD

I have been seeing Dr Fancher for many years. I have recommended her to many, Including my Father & husband. She is amazing, sweet and concerned, caring. I visit every 6 months like clockwork but if I ever have an emergency I take a standby appointment and always get in with a bit of a wait in the office. She is very thorough and explains things in depth. Kind and compassionate. If you can wait six months to get onto her schedule then it is worth it to be under her care!

I’ve been to other dermatologists who tried to sell me everything from shampoo to skin creams. It’s a bit tacky (in my humble opinion) for physicians to sell you brand-​name stuff (i.e. Obaji) so they can get a cut and trust me, I’ve seen a few…
I had specifically asked for Dr. Fancher as my PCP had to write a referral — I needed a dermatologist to check out my sun-​damaged skin and had to make sure it wasn’t melanoma. My mom has been a Dr. Fancher «fan» for many years so I decided to wait the 6 months it took to see this awesome physician.
Dr. Fancher is located in the old Medical Arts Building on Young/​S. King street across the Blaisdell. I found street parking so I didn’t use the parking facilities but another reason I did not want to use the parking facilities was because it was small and crowded.
The waiting room was pleasant and I avoided the seat with the dried liquid stain on it. I waited about thirty minutes before I was called into the inner chambers. Then I waited another ten minutes; nervous, since I parked on the street and I was supposed to move my car by a certain time or else it would be towed.
Was it worth the wait? Yes! Dr. Fancher was pleasant, easily approachable and had a relaxed (but not lax) demeanor about her. She used plain English and she explained everything in way that anyone could understand her. At the conclusion of the session she even offered to check my back, which was not what I came in for.
All in all a very good experience. I will definitely be back to visit Dr. Fancher.

A great physician… not enough can be said about Dr. fancher. I wish she could be my internist, my gynecologists, my eye doctor, etc. That’s how I feel about her… completely trustworthy.

Dr. Fancher displays all the signs of being an excellent dermatologist: she is considerate, thorough in her examinations, knowledgeable, and compassionate. This review is based on a skin cancer screening.

So they weren’t able to see me anytime soon but the staff was very kind and helpful in finding me somewhere that could see me right away! Thanks

I switched to Dr Fancher from another dermatologist who was also really good but had staff with the worst attitude. I have come to the conclusion that all dermatologists are booked MONTHS in advance so it’s just something to live with. She is thorough, intelligent, personable, caring, and everything else you want from your doctor. She addressed every question I had without rushing me through.
Dr Fancher and staff are great!

I was in the area and decided to drop by to see if Dr. Fancher could refill my Rx. The receptionist said that I would have to make an appointment, which is a year from today. Being that Dr. Fancher took me in last time with no appointment, I asked if I could be on the waiting list for possible future canceled appointments. Instead, the receptionist asked me if I wanted to wait a bit to see if her schedule frees up, which I said «Yes.» about 15 — 20 minutes later, the Medical assistant asks me to come in… and in about 10 — 15 minutes later, Dr. Fancher is examinning me. That’s what I call «Customer Service!»
Great staff. They are very professional.
Thanks for another great experience Dr. Fancher!

I rate her excellent. I like her professionalism and articulation, I like her approach to problems. She gives you thorough explanation. She makes sure you are with her. I come out of the office happy.
Only negative: hard to make an appointment. Ester will let you come in and try to squeeze you in for full appointment. You might end up waiting 1 hour easily.

I have gone to Dr. Fancher now three times. The last time for a different procedure. She is very professional. She takes the time to explain what is going on, gives you options, and makes you feel comfortable. Love her!

She is a GREAT doctor! Knowledgeable, sweet, nice, and is very genuine. Even though this was my first time meeting her, I felt comfortable right off the bat because she has this warmth about her.
Most importantly, extremely competent! (Went to another doctor for a, but they couldn’t give me a direct answer. Dr. Fancher on the other hand, was straight to the point and made a direct diagnosis!)
She is extremely booked though! When I tried to book an appointment, the soonest one that was available was 6 months away!!! When they realized the urgency though, they told me to come in as a «stand by». I had to wait a total of 3 hours to see Dr. Francher. Two words. .. WORTH IT! Even though she is EXTREMELY BUSY (I know from waiting three hours in the waiting area, and see A LOT of patients coming in and out), when she’s with you one on one, you never feel rushed. When she was with me, she focused on me and answering all the questions I had.
Like I said in the beginning, she is a great doctor! There is a reason why she was already booked for the next six months!

She’s the reason I wear SPF50 – everyday, everywhere. After frolicking for years under the Hawaiian sun, I decided it was time to take care of my skin. I come to see Dr. Fancher semiannually for that interesting mole or pesky pimple.
Dr. Fancher is sweet and helpful – I like going to see her even with perfect skin. She always gives me free samples and coupons. However, her staff members aren’t the brightest crayons in the box – it peeves me to have to talk to them.
«Your next appointment is October.»
«I’ll be away at law school in October. Let’s try mid-​December.»
«Ok, what day in October works for you?»
«You mean December.»
«Ok, December 1^st.»
«I won’t be home yet. MID-​DECEMBER!!»
Everyone over 20 should see a dermatologist. Dr. Fancher is in high demand, so call today for a 15-​minute appointment 6 months from now. Expect to wait a while during your visit, though, with the incompetent workers and all.
