Mohs Micrographic Surgery
Cary Skin Center performs Mohs Surgery on all skin cancers, including melanomas. Cary Skin Center is open Monday through Friday in the Cary and Pinehurst offices.
Center of Excellence
Cary Skin Center has achieved accreditation as the first SRC Center of Excellence in Mohs Surgery, with Dr. Robert Clark, Dr. Adam Ingraffea, and Dr. Helen Malone recognized as Surgeons of Excellence in Mohs Surgery.
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.

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.

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.
