  • Dr. Chelsea Fidai did MOHS surgery on me one year ago for skin cancer (basal cell carcinoma) and I healed very well thanks to her! The two photos below were taken less than a year apart. She’s so kind and did a great job on keeping the scaring on my face down with lots of in-house after care. She’s the best!

  • Dr. Fidai is amazing!! Super attentive and has a great eye! Really knows how to make the best use of the latest technology! I’ve gotten fraxel with her before and I feel like I have a new lease on life (or my skin!). I am now an everyday sunscreen wearer for the first time in my life. Would recommend Dr. Fidai you my closest friends and family for any of their dermatology needs!

  • Dr. Fidai is truly the best dermatologist from whom I have received care and treatment. She listens to my concerns and addresses each of them with an understanding and interested manner which I feel makes communication with her very easy. After decades of sun exposure, I now need treatment for skin cancer and aging skin, and Dr. Fidai is walking me through it all. She has now performed 3 MOHS surgeries to remove skin cancer that she found, and 2 were on my face. Much to my relief, her work is so good that I can’t see the scarring! Dr. Fidai also did my fraxel laser treatment to address my aging skin, I was thrilled with those results as well and will schedule another soon.
