The health of your skin shouldn’t be overlooked. When it comes to getting screenings, medical dermatology care, and aesthetic procedures, it’s critical that you make informed choices as to which provider is best for you and has the most advanced training, experience, and outcomes.
When researching any physician or specialist, it’s essential that your provider is board-certified. At ForCare Dermatology, they have several physicians and practitioners, all of which are board-certified with advanced training and experience in dermatologic care. The three ForCare dermatologists are all fellowship-trained, have notable experience, and are well-respected by their peers. The staff is under the direct supervision of Dr. Seth Forman, a well-regarded dermatologist who is known nationally for his expertise and innovation.
ForCare physicians and staff always put patients first and provide exceptional care.

Skin Cancer Screenings
A skin cancer screening is a visual assessment of your skin by Dr. Forman and trained professional staff. All areas of the skin are examined from the scalp down to the toes. The medical professional team will look for any suspicious lesions like basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinomas, atypical moles, and malignant melanoma. It is recommended to have a yearly skin cancer screening with your dermatologist.
New Bladeless, Superficial Electron Therapy (SET) for Skin Cancer
Superficial electron therapy, also known as electron-beam therapy, is a non-invasive alternative to surgery for non-melanoma skin cancer, specifically basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma. The device works through amplified X-ray technology, and the electron beam passes through healthy skin without damaging the cellular structure. The non-melanoma cancer can be easily and effectively treated without cutting, and patients do not need to stop taking certain medications such as blood thinners as with traditional skin cancer surgery. Patients can also continue with their normal activities. There is no downtime as with traditional surgery. ForCare Medical Group is on the leading edge of advanced procedures and treatment options. They are one of the only offices that provide Bladeless Electron Beam Therapy here locally.
Aura MedSpa
ForCare also offers aesthetic dermatology procedures and treatment options through Aura MedSpa, and they are one of the only dermatology centers to have an onsite clinical research team as well.
