The staff was exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable. Dr. Deschner was amazing. He spent a long time with us ( my husband came with me ). He explained everything we had questions about in great detail. He’s one smart cookie. If I end up needing surgery, I would hope Dr. Deschner would be the one to do it. I am so thankful I was referred to him !

Melanoma is a scary word & Dr Ben Deschner helped to ease my concerns with a very thorough consultation. He educated me, answered all my questions & was kind and up front about my condition. He listens & he understands. I feel so much better now & am confident that my surgery will go well. The staff who work with him are also extremely nice & eager to help. God bless you ALL!
