Summary

  • I am a board-certified Dermatologist specializing in Mohs micrographic surgery since 1999. I’ve performed over 40,000 Mohs surgeries and reconstructions with a cure rate over 99.5%. From 1999 to 2015, I was a partner with Dermatology Associates of Kentucky. Since 2017, I have practiced in Tucson, AZ - first with HealthySkin Dermatology and now in solo practice at Arizona Mohs Surgery.
