Skin Cancer & Dermatology Clinic at AMSD

Anir Dhir, M.D. Tucson's Top Rated Mohs Surgeon

Skin Cancer Screenings & Medical Dermatology

In addition to Mohs surgery, we offer Comprehensive Skin Cancer & Dermatologic Care at AMSD, including skin cancer screenings, biopsies, non-Mohs excisions, curettage, and topical therapy for cancers that may not need Mohs surgery.  These services are provided by Shelby Coplen, PA-C, Taylor Foxworthy, PA-C, and Tabitha Bayne, PA-C:  three highly-trained and experienced Physician Assistants who previously practiced together and then joined our team in 2024-26. Shelby, Taylor, and Tabitha are also experts in the treatment of rashes, psoriasis, rosacea, and acne. Shelby is available on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 7:30 am to 3:45 pm.  Taylor works on Tuesday to Friday from 7:30 am to 3:45 pm.  Tabitha cares for patients on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday, from 7:30 am to 3:45 pm.  Please call us at (520) 612-7722 to schedule an appointment. We look forward to taking excellent care of you.

If you already have an established relationship with a trusted dermatologist, we are happy to address just cancers needing our specialized Mohs surgical services.

Please note that our clinic does not specialize in cosmetic services or disorders of hair and nails.

I want to thank you for the professional way you handled my surgery. In the last ten years, I have had ten surgeries but I have never been treated with more professional, kind, and courteous service as I received from you and your staff. You took your time to explain all procedures and what I could expect from you. Thanks a million and I wish you continued success in your practice. I'm sure you will be able to make a lot of people happy. Keep up the good work. Your happy patient.

Thank you so much for the wonderful care you and your staff gave me. The removal of my skin cancer was a breeze. I appreciated the straightforward information and genuine care. I hope dealing with my insurance is not too big of a headache for your staff. I am thankful they were willing to go an extra mile to get my visits approved. If I am lucky, my employer will realize you are the best choice for their dermatology services. That way, I can continue to have the excellent care you give.

Your patience, time, and care are greatly appreciated. I am so absolutely pleased with my leg that now each and every day I am able to look at it, and for once, to not be ashamed of the scars that were once there. Thank you so much. I will always be grateful to you.

We had a very positive experience at AZ Mohs Surgery. From Nathalie & good directions, kind eyes Lindsay’s reception, to beautiful Blanca’s good natured pre surgery banter and Dr. Dhir’s surgery – all went well and we appreciated our very fine treatment.
