Biopsy Site Photos Needed For Appointments

You should send a marked photo of the biopsy site immediately upon making an appointment with our office. Biopsy site should be clearly marked on the photo. Adequately marked photos of the biopsy site are absolutely critical to scheduling surgery.

Send site photos in .JPG format via e-mail to photo@caryskincenter.com (type patient’s D.O.B. and initials in subject line).

If you are unable to provide a marked photo of the biopsy site, please call the Cary office at (919) 363-7546 or the Pinehurst office at (910) 295-1761 to schedule a biopsy site photo appointment in our office, free of charge, immediately.

Board-Certified in Micrographic Dermatologic Surgery

Our fellowship-trained Mohs surgeons have taken and successfully passed the new first-ever Board Certification Examination in Micrographic Dermatologic Surgery. This represents a new level of the gold standard in Mohs Micrographic Surgery.

This first opportunity to take and achieve board certification in Mohs Micrographic Surgery occurred in October 2021. Our physicians have again achieved the highest level of academic achievement, skill, and knowledge in Mohs surgery.

Our surgeons are fellowship-trained skin cancer and reconstructive surgeons specializing in the Mohs micrographic surgical technique used to treat skin cancer. Fellowship training serves to promote and advance the highest standards of patient care and expertise in Mohs surgery.

Had to have some basal cells removed and everything was easy here. No pain during the procedure and everything after was explained clearly with keeping the stitched area clean and allowed to heal properly. Small scar on my cheek but otherwise no issues!

From the minute I walked in Cary Skin Center, I felt very comfortable. The staff was friendly. My nurse Natalia explained the surgery and Dr Clark was wonderful and put me at ease. The sutures applied by Heather the P.A. were so well done, that in as little as three weeks the scarring is hardly noticeable. Thank you all.
