Patient Reviews
Dec 18, 2019
I have a history of facial BCC and have had numerous excisions; some have left horrible scarring with fast pace stressful office visits. I prefer a more gentle and honest approach to my skin cancer options & treatments. Dr. Moat's fit that requirement beautifully; he spent time assessing my skin, listened to my concerns about the MOHS process and agreed to a slow MOHS approach for removing my BCC now and in the future. For my most recent treatment, Dr. Moats described the procedure in detail & showed me with a mirror as to what I can expect both from the procedure and with scarring. I loved that! He also has a calming serene voice that puts me at ease right away.  His medical assistants were so kind and very concerned about me right from the start. Even if I move out of the area, I would come back just to be treated by Dr. Moats.
