The Mohs process has a remarkable local cure rate with new cancers and recurrent cancers, while conserving as much normal tissue as possible. Tissue reconstruction using skin flaps and grafts is usually performed on the same day by the Mohs surgeons. Our attending staff of Mohs surgeons have completed two years of post-graduate cutaneous oncology and complex reconstructive surgery fellowship training. Their membership in the American College of Mohs Micrographic Surgery and Cutaneous Oncology assures that the highest standards of physician training in Mohs Micrographic Surgery has occurred with specialized post graduate fellowship training.

Your first appointment will consist of a preoperative consultation. It is often done in the clinic but in many cases screening can be done over the telephone. This visit is critically important to assess, coordinate, plan and prepare you for surgery. Please understand that Mohs surgery is not performed on the consult day.
