Dr. Eric Adelman earned his medical degree from New York College of Osteopathic Medicine in Old Westbury, New York, in 1998. He completed his Dermatology Residency at North Broward Hospital in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, where he served as Chief Resident. He then completed an extensive Mohs surgical oncology fellowship in Cincinnati, Ohio, under accomplished surgeon Dr. Brett Coldiron, M.D. Dr. Adelman is a member of the American Academy of Dermatology, American Society of Dermatological Surgery, American College of Mohs Surgery, American Osteopathic Association, and the American Osteopathic College of Dermatology. He is an expert in the prevention, detection, and treatment of skin cancer; as well as experienced in other disorders of the skin, hair, and nails.

Dr. Adelman grew up in Lakewood, New York, on Lake Chautauqua, spending most of his leisure time participating in sports -- from water skiing and sailing, to snow skiing and hockey. He attended Miami University of Ohio earning his Bachelor's Degree in Finance, while selecting his elective classes in the sciences and mathematics. After meeting a very successful osteopathic physician who was practicing orthopedics, Dr. Adelman discovered a passion for holistic medicine. He particularly associated with the concept of preventive medicine and found it very rational, which led him to apply to osteopathic medical school.

Dr. Adelman loves doing surgery and feels fortunate that he discovered this passion. He first performed Mohs surgery for a large group in south Florida where he developed an excellent reputation not only for his surgical skills, but for his unique approach to patient care. Dr. Adelman decided in 2007 that he would like to apply his ideas about medicine and patient care to his own practice.
