I had Mohs surgery on my right ear yesterday by Dr. Villanueva ( Dr. V. for short). This was my first experience with Mohs surgery. Dr. V explained everything and made me feel very comfortable with the procedure. He was very personable & professional. Both of his nurse’s Kristina & Nina were just the best! They both had had excellent attitudes and were very skilled at prep and after wound care. I have nothing but praises for the entire team!

Dr. Vill is so good at his job!! Highly recommend his practice!! Everyone was so professional and caring which helped because I was definitely nervous having my first Moh’s. They helped me to feel totally at ease once I was sitting in the chair. Erin was so good with the needle that it barely even hurt. I hope I never ever have to have another Moh’s but if I do, I will definitely come back!! Thank you!!

Dr. V and his staff were very professional and explained answers to my questions in great detail. I feel really cared for during this experience. I wouldn't see anyone else for my skin care needs.

I was previously misdiagnosed at a different office and ended up coming to forefront for another opinion. I had a biopsy done ( thank you Caroline! ) and within 2 days I found out that I had skin cancer. I was pretty shocked as I was told it was purely a cosmetic issue at another local provider. When I came into the office the day of my procedure I was extremely nervous but it went sooo great. I had 2 rounds of mohs and my dr and nurse were amazing. I felt so comfortable and I felt like they truly cared about me. I have recommended this practice to all of my friends and family! Thank you dr. V for taking such great care of me!
