Services
Mohs Micrographic Surgery
Mohs surgery precisely removes skin cancer while preserving healthy tissue. Our fellowship-trained surgeons achieve a 98% cure rate for recurrent cancers using microscopic mapping. Patients benefit from same-day procedures and immediate wound reconstruction options.
Dermatopathology
Our in-house dermatopathology lab provides rapid, accurate biopsy analysis. Led by Dr. John Geisse, this service ensures specialized interpretation of complex skin conditions, including melanoma, within days rather than weeks.
Varicose Vein Treatment
Advanced treatments address both cosmetic and medical vein issues. Using ultrasound-guided laser therapy and sclerotherapy, we resolve venous insufficiency symptoms while improving leg aesthetics safely and effectively.
Cosmetic Dermatology
We offer FDA-approved solutions for skin rejuvenation, including Botox, fillers, and laser treatments. Our providers tailor anti-aging and scar-reduction plans using evidence-based techniques for natural-looking results.
Dermatologic Surgery
From acne scar repair to complex reconstructions, our surgeons combine technical expertise with artistic precision. We employ cutting-edge laser and traditional techniques to treat benign/malignant growths with minimal scarring.
