Providence Patient
Dr that did MOHS procedure snd her staff were excellent
Providence Patient
Everyone in the Mohs surgery office was kind and caring from my Initial call to establish care, front desk check in, medical assistants and Dr. Allen. I've had a lot of biopsies and procedures that were usually very painful so I was apprehensive about this procedure because it was on my chest. They took great care making It as painless as possible. After a few days I removed the bulky part of my bandage, I was shocked by the large size of the excision because the procedure was nearly painless. I will need a lot more care moving forward but I'm comforted by the knowledge I will receive exceptional care.
Providence Patient
Everyone was professional, and friendly.
