More About Chad Prather, M.D.

Dr. Prather founded Dermasurgery Center to combat the rising skin cancer epidemic in the South. Working with primary care physicians and patients' primary dermatologists to diagnose and treat skin cancer, Dr. Prather focuses on the highly effective, cosmetically sensitive Mohs technique.

Mohs micrographic surgery is a state-of-the art treatment that provides the highest potential cure rate for skin cancer. Mohs surgery, which also allows the best cosmetic result, is not required for all of the 3 million plus skin cancers that occur each year in the U.S., but in many cases it may be the best choice.

Mohs micrographic surgery is an advanced technique that is best performed by a doctor with specialized training and extensive experience. This type of training can only be obtained by a one-year fellowship under the American College of Mohs Surgery (ACMS).

Dr. Prather is the only ACMS-trained Louisiana dermatologist west of New Orleans. He has treated thousands of patients with the Mohs technique.

Whether you're having Mohs surgery for skin cancer, a laser procedure, a medical dermatology visit, or a aesthetic treatment such as Botox®, injectable fillers, or a chemical peel, you can be certain you're in the hands of a caring expert.
