WORTH IT
I was referred to Dr Hazany by an oculoplastic surgeon who said he would be the best doctor to remove a basal cell carcinoma cancer on my lower eyelid. Dr. Cornell, my cataract surgeon, biopsied a small bump he saw near my tear duct and sent me to oculoplastic surgeon Dr. Roya Ghafouri, who sent me to Dr.Hazany for the Mohs surgery. I have had many eye surgeries on this eye in the past and it is very sensitive. I am a very active dressage horse show judge, i wanted this to be a flawless surgery. Dr.Salar Hazany performed Mohs surgery and removed the cancer in one stage very painlessly. It was healed in about 2 days and I was back to work judging. The staff was really amazing to coordinate an appointment for me since i was coming from out of town, and flying around the country each week to judge different shows. Although he is not in network with my insurance, my deductible was so high that it made no difference and his staff helped me prepare the paper work necessary to get reimbursed. It was worth every penny for this service and outcome. The oculoplastic surgeon was worried that my ear duct “punctum” would be destroyed by surgery, and Dr.Hazany saved it! All of my ophthalmologists are very impressed.
Please look at the three photos. The top one shows my eyelid before the cancer was removed with mohs, the second is right after mohs surgery, (the red area is where the cancer was), the lowest photo is 2 weeks after surgery.
