Our Mission
Statement
Always treat others as you would have them treat you.
The mission of Southeastern Skin Cancer & Dermatology will constantly be guided by these words. Our practice is created for and focused on those with skin concerns at any age, with specific expertise for individuals with cancers of the skin. For our family of patients, we continually strive to provide optimal care and establish relationships that will surpass those expected from the typical medical provider. Your care will always be offered in a current yet established, detailed, efficient and respectful manner, always including the human touch. In addition, tremendous importance is placed on integrity and rapport with other healthcare providers, medical business associates and the community which we service. Regardless of the condition, venue or nature of interaction, our efforts are not complete until you are completely satisfied.
What is
Mohs SURGERY?
Mohs’ micrographic surgery is a technique used to remove the cancer while sparing the most normal, unaffected tissue. It provides the greatest cure rates while also leading to the most cosmetically favorable results. The full periphery and base are checked immediately with a microscope by your dermatologist to see if tumor remains or is completely removed. This is especially important for areas where excess skin is limited, such as the face.
Current UV
Forecast
The UV Index provides a forecast of the expected risk of overexposure to UV radiation from the sun. The UV Index is accompanied by recommendations for sun protection and is a useful tool for planning sun-safe outdoor activities.
