It is a method of obtaining complete margin control during removal of a skin cancer using frozen section technique.

We are indebted to Dr. Joyce for her help over the years - my daughter has struggled with various skin issues for years, and the doctors at Farah Dermatology really know their stuff. I know I can trust them and their advice, and they do a great job. It's always worth it to go for their expert diagnoses. THANK YOU!

Very bad service! I went in there to get a laser treatment for some areas on my face from a dermatologist, but I was greeted with a "laser technician" that DID NOT know what service and care mean. A huge chunk of my money into the trash can! I go to a cosmetics dermatologist to make my skin look better and this laser technician didn't even really go over much of my face. This is not care at all. Huge mistake for going to this DOCTOR's office. He even went over my moles, which I believe won't be removed by the laser used. Not happy.

It is always a great experience to go to Farah Dermatology. I have been a patient there for over 20 years and I am always welcomed with a smile and a handshake (sometimes more than 1!). I have seen fantastic results from their care and have been seen by all 3 Farah doctors over the years. It is a very nice, comfortable setting and I would highly recommend it.
