                Yes, UCSF is at the top of the game in Northern California. Susana Ortiz (dermatologist) and Adil Daud (melanoma oncologist) are the co-directors of the melanoma center there. Alain Algazi is an oncologist on staff as well. My dad has seen all three of them, though Dr. Daud is his primary. Everyone is wonderful at UCSF; I absolutely recommend them.
