      Hi all,

      I used to post here back in 2001 when I was first diagnosed. Years have gone by, and I no longer have that login, but I was in my early 20s and living in Oregon at the time. I now live in Arizona and need to find a good derm but don't know where to start. I have a few new suspicious moles and it's hard to narrow down recommendations from review sites when they are often written about cosmetic dermatology. I am willing to go wherever in the Phoenix metro area, although I live in the east valley.

      Thanks so much

          I live in CA… my doc works at a cancer hospital in Los Angeles… that's a haul for you. Looking up info online, I found the only NIH designated cancer center in AZ is in Tuscon… whiiiiich is probably also a long haul. So, I took a peek to see if I could find an oncological dermatologist in Phoenix. Results turned up this woman: Dr. Nathalie Zeitouni …. https://www.usdermatologypartners.com/provider/zeitouni-md-faad/  It looks as though their center does also do aesthetic dermatology, her career focus has been with skin cancers. The difficulty with finding a solid derm, is usually getting an appointment that isn't 4 months from now!
