As a clinician, Dr. Shelton is conservative and precise, guided by the necessary technology and mapping that reveals healthy vs malignant tissue. His explanations through all phases of surgery are clear and accurate. As an individual, he is intuitive, proactive, empathetic, and encouraging. His explanations throughout all phases of surgery are clear and realistic. While he shines on his own, he does as well as a team player, partnering with plastic surgery as needed to optimize patient outcomes.

I’ve been coming to Dr. Shelton for over ten years, staring with a minor lightening of a facial broken blood vessel but referred by a friend who’d had some pretty serious Moh’s done on his nose for skin cancer. I wouldn’t trust anyone else in NYC with my face or skin in general. He I s completely skillful, medically up to date and has probably the best judgment concerning aesthetic procedures that one can find. I feel sorry for people on the street who have obviously been treated elsewhere.

I came to Dr. Shelton for help with one specific skin problem. Through treatment, the problem was made much more significant.

Dr. Shelton is very good at what he does. He educates his patients because he wants them to feel comfortable. Unlike most doctors, he will actually spend the time with you to discuss treatment options rather than just handing over a brochure or pamphlet.

I have been seeing Dr. Shelton for about 10 years and I would highly recommend him. He stays up-to-date on the latest procedures and products, and answers any questions honestly - providing the pros and cons of any procedure. He wants his patients to look natural, so he will tell you when a particular product or procedure may not be a good choice.

I went to Dr. Ron Shelton today to have a Mohs procedure on a squamous cell carcinoma on my leg removed. The whole experience from beginning to end was excellent. Dr. Shelton took time to build rapport: he warmly introduced himself.. He explained the procedure clearly. He was very skillful in the surgical procedure and was assisted by competent nurses who were also kind and personable. I did not have a a minute of worry. I would say that he is an extra-good doc and highly recommend him

I've seen Dr. Shelton numerous times in recent years to have something excised, and his work is superb, especially in repairing the site of the incision: you can't make out a scar, even on my face. Also he is an utterly personable fellow, with an easy, outgoing manner, and explains clearly and calmly what's going to happen. Bonus: all the the people who support his practice, from nurses to the front desk, are a pleasure to deal with, including making appointments.

I am amending my previous review since Dr. Shelton deserves 5 stars not 4.
As I stated in my previous review, he is simply the best!!!

Dr Shelton performed Mohs surgery on my nose. The care I received from him and his staff was exceptional. He was very reassuring and spent time explaining the procedure to me. His staff was very professional and considerate on each of my visits. My post operative recovery was fine; in fact, there is no indication that I ever had any procedure done on my nose - a testimony to the doctor's skill. If I ever need any additional procedures done, I would only go back to Dr Shelton and his staff
