| Finally,
they took the courage and contacted the Elk Grove Dermatology. |
The friendly professionals at Elk
Grove Dermatology dispelled all their fears of pain and high
cost. Sean and his parents were advised the surgery would be
quick, painless and not expensive at all. So, here is Sean at
the Elk Grove Dermatology for the removal procedure. |
The
strategy is to remove the mole without stitches. It will permit
Sean to immediately resume normal activities, including sports
activities.
|
Two
hours before coming in Sean applied the topical EMLA Cream so as
to soften his mole. Dr. Polisky and his staff greeted Sean and
his parents. Surgical nurses explained the procedure once again.
Simple written instructions were given and explained. Dr.
Polisky talked about any concerns Sean and his parent still had.
If topical or oral antibiotics were needed, they were available
in-house at the checkout desk.
|
| Sean
was given a stuffed toy to hold on to. A quick ouch baby shot
was given. A few minutes later the removal procedure began and
finished very quickly. |
|
Sean was surprised he
did not feel any pain. "Is it done already, doctor? It really is gone!". Dr Polisky replied, "Most of my patients are
surprised how quick and painless the procedure is."
|
On
a return visit, the surgery site is checked for proper healing
and, if necessary, lab reports are discussed and explained.
