I first went to this office for my father who was in his 90’s and had a two large cancer spots. One on top of his head and the 2nd  on his forehead. The precision and care for dad was terrific. My dad had Alzheimer’s and the staff took great care of him. The doctor even gave us his cell phone number to contact him, if I had any questions for aftercare. The scar was minimal. Barely noticeable. I live an hour away from this office, when my dermatologist wanted to do a large biopsy on my nose, that would leave a scar for the rest of my life. I went to knights LakeMary office. It turned out they did not need to make do a biopsy, they gave me a cream they use for this pre cancer and I have not had any problems since. Last year they found a they found a basal cell carcinoma on my back. They did the procedure in winter park for the surgery. They did the mose surgery( not sure that is the correct spelling). You can hardly notice the scar on my back. I refer all my friends to this office because they are the most qualified dermatologist in the area.
