Mole Removal: Stories

No pain, no downtime, but I'm not sure these are really moles (although I've had moles all my life).

After an extended outing in the sun, I had one "spot" on my forehead start to grow and that is what prompted my appt.

The Doctor was less worried about those on my face - she called them seborrheic keratoses - and was more worried about the actinic keratoses she found on my forearms.

She treated 12 spots in all, split 50%/50% between seborrheic and actinic and also 50%/50% between face/forearms.

HTH,
Mike

Great review?

My Doctor: Victoria W. Serralta, MD

My rating:

Doctor's Bedside Manner

After Care Follow-Up
Time Spent With Me
Phone or Email Responsiveness
Staff Professionalism & Courtesy
Payment Process
Wait Times

very little wait time, courteous staff, personable doctor. My decision to visit was based partially on the info she has posted here - she is even better in person. Her office is not the closest dermatology office in my network, but it is certainly worth the extra driving time/expense.

Hi Mike,

Thanks for the added info, your review has been updated. So are all your moles gone now, or do you have to go back? Do you have pictures? We would love to see them. Please keep us updated.

Thanks so much,

-Britt
