Joanne Dugan
As a Certified Nursing Assistant, I am here to assist Dr. Perlis during clinic sessions where we perform screenings, biopsy procedures, and patient education such as "The importance of sun protection."
The Dermatology facilities at 8 Huntingdon Pike provides full dermatological services, including screening and treatment for melanoma, non-melanoma, and pre-cancerous skin conditions, plus genetic risk assessment.
The 4,500-square-foot space houses the Mohs facility, where our team performs a highly effective procedure to remove non-melanoma skin cancer layer by layer. Mohs has the highest cure rate compared to other skin cancer treatments. It ensures removal of the entire tumor with minimal scarring—especially important for sensitive areas such as the nose, lips and other head and neck areas.
