Patient Reviews
Mar 17, 2018
I highly recommend Dr. Prather to anyone who needs Mohs Surgery. He has taken two basal cell cancers off my forehead and each time was as seamless as possible. No scars. Loved everyone who worked with me during the time there. Hope I don't have to go back again--but wouldn't choose anyone else!
