Dermatology Services

Benson Dermatology's physicians, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants treat patients of all ages with a full range of treatments for common to rare skin ailments. The mission of each provider with our dedicated support staff of Benson Dermatology is to provide an optimal patient experience with effective treatments in a comfortable office environment.

Spot (Mole) Checks

It is hard to believe that a dark growth as small as a pencil eraser can be fatal, but the reality is that melanoma is one of the most lethal forms of cancer, especially among young adults.

Skin Cancer Prevention

Skin cancer is by far the most common type of cancer, but it is also among the most preventable, through diligent use of sunscreen to avoid the sun's harmful ultraviolet rays.

Skin Cancer Treatment

Dr. Benson has a long-established reputation as an expert in the prevention, detection, and treatment of skin cancer, with over four decades of experience in the US and New Zealand, the skin cancer capitol of the world.

Skin Diseases

We offer diagnosis and treatment with expert care for the wide array of rashes, allergies, infections, and growths which present themselves every day in our practice.

Acne Treatments

Acne in all of its forms is commonly seen at Benson Dermatology, and our staff of board certified dermatologists, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants use a wide array of treatment options to remedy this often bothersome condition. 

Nail Disorders

Common fungal diseases are treatable with topical or oral medications, whereas painful ingrown toenails are immediately and permanently treated in our office.

Hair Disorders

We treat it all—from the distressing alopecia areata to ringworm of the scalp, from bothersome dandruff to severe psoriasis, from hereditary male baldness to thinning hair of middle-aged women.

Mohs Surgery

For particular types and potentially disfiguring skin cancers, Mohs micrographic surgery has now become the gold standard of treatment, and it is available at Benson Dermatology.

Dermatological Surgery

All dermatological surgeries are done under local anesthesia using refined plastic surgery techniques to insure the best possible cosmetic result.
