Dr. Maydan and her assistant Bianca were excellent during the small surgical procedure. Thank you.
Good and caring doctor. I would recommend her.
Had an excision of a small skin tumor performed by Dr. Maydan. Check-in with the front desk was quick and wait time was minimal. The assistant was friendly and efficient. Dr. Maydan is professional and personable and performed the procedure quickly with no discomfort. I was very pleased with the whole process from start to finish.
Dr Maydan, is an excellent surgeon, but it was obvious that she was rushed, she did not wait untill my head was numb before cutting hurt very bad once she numbed it more, I did not feel it, but that was when she was almost done, very unpleasant experience
George Civitelli

Book with Dr. Maydan

"She diagnosed my rare skin cancer enabling me to get early treatment."

 

"Dr. Maydan is a superb practitioner of Mohs surgery. She removed a skin cancer from my face leaving an opening the size of a silver dollar then she closed it leaving no visible scar. I highly recommend her if you have this medical need."

"This message is for those who have Mohs surgery scheduled with Dr. Maydan. You couldn't have made a better choice. I just had stitches removed 3 days ago and can't even find a scar without magnifying mirror. Only redness and marks from stitches remain (which is temporary). Good luck and don't worry."
