At Florida Skin Cancer Institute, we provide non-surgical skin cancer treatment and screening using state of the art technology. We are dedicated to providing people diagnosed with skin cancer and keloids a facility where they can exclusively go, rather than going to hospital-based centers and intermingling with other sicker cancer patients. This way, they can feel more secure, comfortable, and welcomed, as they enter a facility that is made just for their needs. We provide their most-needed services and will continue to evolve to deliver the increasing needs of the concerned members of our community.
Our physician is a Mayo Clinic trained, Board Certified Radiation Oncologist. Radiation Oncologists are experts in the use of radiation for treating cancer. Our Radiation Oncologist has additional certification in skin cancer medicine. Skin cancer and keloid treatment often involves a collaborative approach between Dermatologists, Plastic Surgeons, Radiation Oncologists, and Hematologist/Medical Oncologists. We are very willing to work together with all specialties to accommodate the needs and wishes of the patient. Visit our cancer specialists in Palm Coast, Florida.
