I was treated with respect and care. The procedure was explained fully, I was sedated enough that I had no pain. The waiting time was only experienced while the basil cells were being examined. The surgical area was completely covered to protect the wound. I was a little weak after the surgery and rested as much as I could. I'm glad that Dr. CVancara got out all the basil cells.

The staff went over and above in order to straighten out my issues with the VA and insurances, regarding referrals and other issues. Especially Kathleen from the MOHS department. The entire staff was friendly and helpful every step of the way. They eased my fears and really made the experience very comfortable. I was a little uncertain about the wound care instructions after I got home to Montana so I called and they were very helpful and patient with my needing to be told stuff over again. My incision is healing very nicely. I would not hesitate to refer anyone to Advanced Dermatology & Skin Surgery Center.

From day one my experience with Dr Cvancara has been excellent! He took care of my twin sister and myself for about ten years! His staff are compassionate and kind people and that is a reflection of himself. After my twin sister passed away they sent me a card and checked to make sure I was okay. He tells you right up front what would be the best form of treatment for you and when you should get it done. I Have recommended Dr Cvancara to all of my friends and family. If you really need advice about your overall skin care, don't wait! Call his office right now!

I have had many Mohs surgery by Dr. Cvancara and I wouldn't have any one else do this procedure on me. He is a wonderful caring doctor and I am amazed how after all the surgeries I have had you can not tell. My surgeries are always to take care of the skin cancers I have and some have been extensive. I like it because you go in, he does the surgery, and when you leave the cancer has been taken care of. The last one I had was under the eye lid which was very touchy. Thank you.
