I make sure to provide individualized treatment with a care plan that is tailored to meet my patient's needs. Over time I build relationships with my patients and their families, working together to make sure their plan continues to treat their skin using the most appropriate and state of the art treatment available.

Dr. Katz was professional. Did a nice job of explaining all possible outcomes. Also showed compassion to my son in assessing his pain levels as the excision process continued. Nurse Maddie was marvelous as always. We love her.

Couldn't be more satisfied. Dr. Katz was friendly, confident and reassuring prior to my daughter's mole removal. Office staff was equally as friendly and accommodating.
