Treating skin cancer has two goals that matter equally: removing the cancer completely, and reconstructing the area so life goes on with confidence.
Dr. Copeland completed fellowship training in skin cancer reconstruction. She surgically treats basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and melanoma, and reconstructs the defects that cancer removal leaves behind, including delicate areas of the face, with techniques chosen to protect both function and appearance.
