I was very pleased with all the personnel and especially Dr.V. They were sympathetic and always explained what they were doing and made sure I was as comfortable as possible.

Google Reviews • Forefront

My visit for the MOHS surgery was a good experience. The assistant, Tracy, was wonderful, got me ready, explained everything answered my questions. It was very reassuring, I had been very nervous about this procedure. Dr V came in, introduced himself and went through everything he was going to do and what I may expect afterwards. The procedure went smoothly and the margins were clear. He closed the incision, showed me what it looked like and explained how it would heal. I have to say that his manner and friendly personality was very comforting. Afterwards, Tracy went over everything again with me. I was fortunate to have had this team for my care.
