"There was no consultation appointment. I was told it was not necessary and like a fool I believed this information. Dr. Chang rushed into the room the morning of the Mohs surgery. He spoke about three sentences and proceeded to cut on me. I went to the waiting room for lab results. We returned to be told all was well. Dr. Chang spoke about three more sentences and told me to come back in a week. You can only imagine my surprise (and horror) when the Pariser nurse or PA (I was not really introduced) took off the bandage and went into the open wound with tweezers. She ripped out scar tissue. What could feel more heavenly? I asked for a pain shot and got one after being told it wouldn't do any good. It didn't. My ankle was screaming with misery. No one ever bothered to prepare me for any of this. I have been treated for breast cancer and lung cancer with chemo and radiation. Those experiences pale in comparison to this. I have left Pariser and found a far better dermatological ...
group to help me with the wound healing. Had there been a consultation and had Dr. Chang bothered to explain the ramifications of lower leg Mohs surgery as well as the tweezer attack follow-up I probably would have taken a different course. Leaving a significant open wound on the lower leg makes it vulnerable to bacterial infections. This has been a miserable experience. the only reason I am giving this one star is that it is the only way to have this review published. "
