I am a Melanoma survivor who went to Dr. Hassanein's office. Since I have had Melanoma in the past, I prefer to be seen by the physician, not the PA. I had a skin cancer on the side of my knee which the PA removed (had never had a PA do skin cancer surgery on me before), and really wasn't comfortable with it. The lesion was removed, stitches put in, and after a month, the whole incision reopened. I was basically told there was nothing they could do, & I still have a dent in my leg where the surgery was performed. Also, I would suggest that you check his credentials. Never went back, and am now a patient of Dr. Casper.
