MOHS Surgery
MOHS surgery is a precise treatment for skin cancer that removes cancerous tissue layer by layer while preserving healthy skin. Our fellowship-trained surgeons achieve a 99% cure rate by examining tissue margins during the procedure. This outpatient treatment ensures minimal scarring and optimal cosmetic outcomes for patients with basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, or melanoma.
Botox Injections
Botox injections temporarily reduce facial wrinkles by relaxing underlying muscles. Our certified providers target areas like crow's feet and forehead lines using FDA-approved formulas. Results appear within days and last 3-4 months, with follow-up sessions enhancing long-term smoothing effects for a rejuvenated appearance.
Skin Cancer Screening
Annual skin cancer screenings involve full-body exams to detect suspicious moles or growths. Our dermatologists use dermatoscopy for early melanoma and carcinoma identification. High-risk patients receive personalized monitoring plans, while biopsies confirm diagnoses. Early detection significantly improves treatment success rates for all skin cancer types.
Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair removal targets unwanted hair with concentrated light absorbed by hair follicles. Our medical-grade lasers suit various skin tones and body areas, requiring 6-8 sessions for lasting results. This treatment reduces ingrown hairs and offers smoother skin compared to temporary methods like shaving or waxing.
Psoriasis Management
Psoriasis management combines topical treatments, phototherapy, and biologics to control flare-ups. Our specialists create tailored plans addressing genetic and environmental triggers. Regular monitoring adjusts therapies to minimize scaling, inflammation, and joint complications associated with this autoimmune condition.

Just Don't waste your time going to this place. I WAITED to get an appointment more than 4 month because their schedule was full and they had to cancel my appointments many times bc of wheather conditions. when I finally got a appointment they canceled it because they couldnt wait for me 10 minutes bc I was running late but I did have to wait 6 month for an appointment and Worst! The first time I went there I waited for the doctor around 20 minutes to get in to the room. Awful, they are inhumane and don't have customer service. If you are white ignore my review and go because they will treat you nice.

Unfortunately I am very disappointed. :( After Many years of receiving services) I call to make an appointment and am told I have been dropped due to not being seen since 12/2018. However my appointment in 12/2019 was cancelled and then COVID hit us in January 2020. :( Thumbs down RID on your policy.) Actually have been a patient there for over 20 years back to when it was Skin Medicine. Feeling dropped like a hot potato : I would like to RETRACT my post!
I received a call this afternoon from the office manager Stephane. She was extremely apologetic and wanted to rectify what had been told to me on the phone earlier today. I now have an appointment scheduled and look forward to receiving the same great care by their team. Awesome job RID!

Absolutely the place you need for any, and all of your dermatology needs. I was recommended to finally make an appointment with them and was glad i did. Between the friendly, and over helpful staff, i felt more than comfortable to be there and talk to them without any problems.

Recently went here to have some blood vessels lasered from my cheeks and to get a full body scan to make sure my skin was in good shape. Met with Linda & Evelyn. They were both wonderful to work with. Very professional and knowledgeable. I will definitely be going back to see these two in the future for any skin care needs I may have.
