In regards to Beverly's previous post - you are correct - the only who read this are more of the same types. This book is NOT meant for patients. This book is meant for dermatologic surgeons to augment their practice. Dermatologists are surgeons - clearly Beverly has no medical experience or knowledge. A surgeon is someone who performs surgery - the average dermatologist performs more skin surgeries (biopsies, laser treatments (which incidentally were pioneered by dermatologists), liposuction (which also were incidentally pioneered by dermatologists), and excisions than any other physician including plastic surgeons. Please do some research before making unnecessary purchases and comments.

Yes, Beverly, more of the same types will read this book. It is meant for medical professionals, and as it is written, is very informative and helpful in terms of approach to, and improvement in, patient care. In response to your comment about 'real doctors', dermatologists are just that. All physicians attend medical school, undergo an internship period and proceed to concentrate more in their chosen specialty. Dermatologists, in addition to practicing the medical care of skin, are surgeons. Spend a day with any one of them and you will know that.

Again and again we as patient are mislead and now we see how they are trying to sway others to accept they are great surgeons. Com on. How many Dematologist can pretend to be something they are not and will never be? How many have wrote books who are either removed from pratice all together or have been the people who have harmed many? This is another misleading example of some trying mislead and bring harm to even more.They are nothing but two Dermatologist and not close to being surgeons.In thsi day it seems just about any can pretend to be something, how demeaning to the real Doctors and the well educated. Any fools who buy this book need to be handing out thousand dollar bills on every corner. Just another couple of phoneys in the Medical world. When will it all get stopped?
The only ones to read this will be more of the same types.
