HUNTINGTON, W.Va. – Marshall Health’s clinic for Mohs micrographic skin surgery is now located on the lower level of 1305 Elm Street in Huntington.
Mohs surgery is considered the most effective method for treating the most common forms of skin cancer. Eduardo Vidal, M.D., is dual board-certified in both dermatology and Mohs surgery and the only fellowship-trained Mohs surgeon in the region. Mohs surgery takes a few hours and involves removing small layers of skin and viewing it under a microscope to ensure all cancerous cells are removed, while preserving healthy tissue.
“Since 2021, we’ve provided local access to this gold-standard skin cancer treatment that has a nearly 100% cure rate,” said Vidal who is also an assistant professor of dermatology at the Marshall University Joan C. Edwards School of Medicine.
The Marshall Dermatology clinic is an outpatient department of Cabell Huntington Hospital, which is a member of the Mountain Health Network. Vidal accepts patients by physician referrals.
