I second Challenger. I've used Village Dermatology (Dr. Tran and his PA, Phil Walker, short for Philomena) for several years. They are indeed highly professional, extraordinarily knowledgeable, and well organized. They are extremely conservative in terms of skin biopsies and surgeries, doing more than my MD up north would do. (I have records sent.) Their explanation is that here we are living in the Florida sun, careful as we may be about it, and it's just as well to err on the cautious side. I agree. And the office in Laurel Manor is convenient as well. Office phone number is 352-751-6565.

I might add that if you want to know whom NOT to go to, please send me a PM. "Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me!" That is, I went once and never went--or looked--back....
