The Most Caring Doctor!
My husband was there for a Mohs Procedure and I was with him. He took one look at the growth on my lower eye lid which was big and offered to remove it right then. He didn’t know I had it removed 2 times already and was scared but I really trusted him! He is the best!!! Thank You!

Wow what a great experience Dr. Rullan Thank You
I cannot thank Dr. Peter Rullan and his caring staff enough for all they did to help me. Everyone was so nice and helpful. Such a very caring and professionally run office. I had to have several procedures done to eliminate a large tumor/abscess and minor cosmetic work. The entire experience went flawlessly. I have been a professional athlete my entire life and it had been over 15 years without having to go to any doctor so I was scared to death to see one. I do not always trust doctors or hospitals. I had been suffering with excruciating pain for almost a year (kept procrastinating) and I am telling you going to see Dr. Rullan was like a miracle and my life being given back to me. You have no idea. I thought I was going to be out for months longer, but what Dr. Rullan was able to do for me in such a short amount of time was a true blessing. The entire process only took about 6-7 weeks of treatments/procedures and was nearly painless. With Dr. Rullan's extreme knowledge in a seemingly

Dr. Rulan is a highly skilled, compassionate doctor. In fact, I think he is a perfectionist. A couple of years ago, he removed a cancerous skin growth on my face and he did such a perfect job (both medically and cosmetically) that I cannot even see the hair-line scar that should have resulted from the procedure.
