General Surgeons Providing Skin Cancer Removal Across Buffalo, Amherst, Tonawanda, & Williamsville, NY!

Being a person with any type of cancer is exhausting and scary. Skin cancer is the most common cancer diagnosis and it is also the most preventable type of cancer. This may be jarring to know both of these facts if you discover you have skin cancer. Modern medicine has made it possible for people with skin cancer to walk into their doctor's office with skin cancer, have a procedure done, and walk out a cancer survivor. You may be wondering, "how in the world is that even possible?!" Mohs surgery, which was developed in the 1930s, is a skin cancer removal procedure that ensures that the cancer is taken out with a high certainty of complete removal.

Mohs surgery removes the skin cancer while preserving as much healthy tissue as possible, which is critical with cancers near the eyes, ears, nose, mouth, hands, feet and genitals. If you are suffering from skin cancer, contact our general surgeons at Amherst Surgical Associates for skin cancer removal today!
