These services are provided by Shelby Coplen, PA-C, and Taylor Foxworthy, PA-C - two highly-trained and experienced Physician Assistants who joined our team in 2024-25. Shelby and Taylor 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. Please call us at (520) 612-7722 to schedule an appointment. We look forward to taking excellent care of you.

Thank you for taking patience with me and my hard of hearing problem. I also like your manner of "doctor to patient" attitude. I appreciate all you did and your patience with me. I know it's hard to talk to a person 88 years old and particularly nearly deaf but both me and my daughter appreciate your patience and service. If I have a problem, I'll see you and know it will be taken care of.
AT is doing fine. I just wanted to thank you for all your kindness. You were super in my eyes. We will never forget you all. God Bless you all.
I just want to thank all of you for being so nice to me and treating me really good. It’s people like you all that make life worth living and make people want to go on. Again, thank you for everything you done for me. I will never forget your kindness. Love all of you so much. Thank you!
This older man greatly appreciates your excellent care and kind attention. Thank you so much.
You have been absolutely wonderful during this surgery. Thanks so much for your genuine concern and kindness. All of us have been so impressed with your medical expertise, as well as your sincere (and almost forgotten) love for your profession and your patients. You truly are the epitome of a great physician—one to be highly recommended, respected, and recognized. Thanks so much for a job well done and for treating your patients as people, not simply a paycheck.
Thank you for a successful Mohs surgery. I was very confident in your abilities and it was a pleasure to meet you.
I wanted to say thank you to you & your staff for the successful removal of the BCC from my forehead. The wound healed nicely & is not noticeable. I appreciated how you shared in advance the details on how you perform Mohs surgery. I enjoyed you sharing your interest in sports cars and racing.
I am very grateful for the care and skill that has eliminated my cancer. Just as you said, it's been 6 months and there is very, very little marking and no numbness. I am very pleased with the results. Thank you.
