WORTH IT$2,000
I consider Dr Green an Angel sent to me in a dire time of need, and he definitely saved my face and perhaps my life, I was diagnosed with a melanoma on my right cheek, was told I had to get it removed immediately . Of all the surgeons I contacted, in a panic, Green was the only one willing to help me. I had the surgery in a week for reaching out to him. The melanoma required a wide excision surgery, and it was very scary. He removed a sizable strip on my cheek from eye to halfway to my ear. Less than two mo later, the scar is barely visible, I am positive that in the usual 6-12 required for healing, it will be basically not detectable. His responding to the immediate need for removal, plus his obviously outstanding surgical skills, likely save me from having a larger strip removed at al later date, worse scaring, and potential serious cancerr spread wiht serious medical implications. I have followed up with a dermatologist and oncologist, they assure me he got it all, and I am clear, Thank you Dr Green for my face and my life, I have fotos below of healing at only 2 months. The redness noted on my cheek is from a preexisting skin condition, completely unrelated to the surgery. Dr Green will remain my hero for life.

I'm glad you're okay and the result looks very good, I couldn't even tell where the excision was done but was the cost really $2,000?

I'm really glad this went well for you. It must've been a scary time and finding a surgeon willing to help was so important! Thank you for sharing on RealSelf!
