"I had a basal cell carcinoma removed, very near to my eye, and could not have been more grateful for Dr. Ellison’s MOHS surgery expertise at this time. He also referred me to a wonderful ocular surgeon for the specialized repair the following day. It was my first time dealing with any Derm issue and Dr. Ellison’s calming, confident manner and excellent communication skills, together with his caring staff were just the support I needed. Mahalo all."
