Dr. Cherpelis is the best doctor I have had in my life including every doctor I have ever seen. I wish he'd be a doctor for everything. He is a perfectionist and you cannot even see the scar on my nose. When he was doing the surgery he was super focused and I can tell.

Outstanding Care in all aspects. I have an unusual schedule and some concerns about follow up requirements. The Doc Listened to my concerns and developed a solution to facilitate both the treatment required for my health and in a manner that would have minimal impact on my work schedule. He went the extra mile, he listened and he figured out a way. Home run

There's no comparison to having skin checks done here vs community. No PA, MD resident thorough exam and discussion followed by Dr Cherpelis exam is very reassuring. He is the best dermatologist I've ever been fortunate to see.
