Remarkable Experience - Manhattan, NY
Posted by Polevoy2013
Dr. Shelton was recommended by my dermatologist. Dr. Shelton performed Mohs surgery on my face. I was of course nervous - but was immediately put at ease by Dr. Shelton and his caring staff. Dr. Shelton took time to describe the procedure and answer all my questions, while treating me with respect and patience. He is kind, experienced and has an extremely light touch. I felt very comfortable in his care, and would highly recommend him to others.

A Great Experience - New York, NY
Posted by Phyllis in New York
Dr. Shelton is an amazing surgeon. His office has great karma and his staff are smart, kind, caring people. Dr. Shelton was recommended to me because I have a tendency scar. He spent the time to talk me through the procedure and explain my options. He was wonderful. His calm manner, his excellent staff all helped me get through this very personal and stressful experience. It is 5 weeks later and you can barely see anything!! Dr. Shelton's expertise and skill level are exceptional. Compared to other surgeons I have been to for similar procedures - there is no comparison. I will never let anyone else perform this procedure on me again. I can't recommned Dr. Shelton strongly enough.

I have been with Dr Shelton since he was head of MOHS surgery at Mt Sinai. Since then I have moved to California, but still see Dr Shelton when I am in NYC. When I know I am coming to NYC, an appointment with him is the first one I make.
