I was very nervous about having the Mohs surgery that Dr. Bierman performed. Her assistant was very kind and answered my questions before the procedure, and Dr. Bierman was kind and very concerned about my pain level and helping me with my nerves during the procedure itself. She was efficient, and luckily I only had to have the one layer removed and didn't have to repeat the procedure a second time before getting a clear margins result.
