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.

The concern and compassion shown during my surgery will be forever appreciated.
Thank you very much for everything you done for me. Also thanks too to your staff for everything they did. Without you all removing my skin cancer for me with the ways things are I don't know what I would have done. Thank you.
Wanted to say thank you for what you did on my behalf. I could see why you were voted one of the Best Doctors. You're kind, considerate, thoughtful, and make your patients comfortable.
While it's never fun to have surgery, the staff at Arizona Mohs Surgery make it the best possible experience. I hope that I'm forever cancer free but if I have to have more surgery, thanks to your team, I won't go into it with fear and trepidation.
In my observation, it is clear very little goes on in your office without distinct deliberation. It seems you have an exact process for everything – from the knock on the door while a patient is waiting to the language on the handout being exact, engaging, and grammatically correct. You are not only an outstanding surgeon, but an outstanding businessman/ manager/etc. It shows in your office and in your people.
Not only were the staff very kind and caring, but are a real credit to their profession. I was very impressed with the way they relate to their patients. Thank you for taking the time to explain everything to us. Your staff is very wonderful. You should be very proud of them.
We are most grateful for the extraordinary skill and care you demonstrated when performing surgery last week. We are pleased beyond measure with your expertise.
Thank you so much for sharing your talents with me the last couple of years. You have been so kind and you can't imagine what a difference you have made in my life. You are a wonderful doctor!
Thank you for the Dermabrasion. My nose looks 100% better. You are the BEST doctor I know, and Theresa you are by far the best nurse I ever seen. Thank you for being so thoughtful and making me feel special. I just can't say enough about you two. Thank you.
Dr. Dhir, Erika, & Lindsay, The surgery site on my forehead healed quickly, with no aches, pain, or scarring. You did great. :-) Your "fun" attitude makes my visits a breeze. Thanks Much!!
