The Melanoma and Pigmented Lesion Clinic is a part of the Cutaneous Oncology Program at the GW Cancer Center. This weekly clinic, overseen by Vishal Patel, MD, provides ongoing surveillance for patients with a personal history of melanoma.
In addition, we offer the following services:
- We see patients at elevated risk of melanoma, including those with a personal history of dypsplastic nevi (atypical moles) or a family history of melanoma.
- For patients with numerous dysplastic nevi, we utilize total body photography to assess for new or changing lesions.
