Skin Cancer Surgeons

We offer a full range of both clinical and cosmetic services to keep our patients' skin, hair and nails healthy and attractive. Our nationally recognized MOHS micrographic skin cancer surgeon has 30 years of experience, and we have served as Orlando's preferred skin cancer surgery center. Now, we proudly offer a non-surgical approach using low-energy radiation to treat non-melanoma skin lesions and tumors.

NOTE: This cutting-edge skin cancer treatment is performed in one of our in-office laboratories, which is subject to stringent quality and personnel requirements established by the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA). The practice is also proud to be a College of American Pathologists (CAP) accredited laboratory.

Orlando Dermatologists

In addition to our superficial radiation therapy, surgical excisions of melanoma, skin tumors, cancers, benign moles and skin lesions, we offer a number of general dermatological therapies. We treat common conditions such as allergic dermatitis, psoriasis, acne, eczema and disease of the hair and nails.

Our doctors, nurse practitioners and physician assistants also perform a variety of cosmetic procedures that include injections for Botox® and dermal fillers as well as medical strength chemical peels, electrocautery and acne treatments.

I have been going to Jenny, the paramedical esthetician, at the Dr. Phillips location for over a year now. She is the best! Very friendly and knowledgeable. She has helped me through electrolysis with quite a bit of unwanted hair on my face. It is a commitment to do it right, but I have been very happy with the results. I have also used her for facial chemical peels. She is great with both. I highly recommend seeing Jenny!
