I'm looking for a doctor in New York to surgically remove my tattoo through excision? I do not want laser tattoo removal (photo)

JR1972
The tattoo is on my sternum, in between/below my breasts. It is 2x1in. I am dark skinned, so I would prefer to have my tattoo removed surgically. I do not mind having a scar, which I would prefer over the tattoo. Are there any doctors who can/will perform this procedure?
