About Mohs Surgery in Fort Collins & Loveland, CO

Mohs micrographic surgery is a highly specialized and precise treatment that is widely accepted as the most effective technique for the treatment of basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinomas and is becoming increasingly popular for other skin cancers as well. This surgical technique removes one tissue layer at a time and screens carefully for cancerous tissue. Mohs removes cancerous cells with the greatest precision, while sparing the maximum amount of healthy tissue, and reducing the chances of recurrence. Dr. Divine has been extensively trained in Mohs surgery and has completed fellowship training at Vanderbilt University.
