I was very impressed that Dr. Eliason listened to me about an area I was concerned with but on my clinic day did not grossly look concerning. Again, he listened to me and took a biopsy which showed an early stage skin cancer. He called me with the report and given the fact that I was to return home to Montana, he got me immediately back into clinic to complete the treatment. I am very grateful for his dedication and excellent patient care.
