Ashwin Kumar did a fabulous job during my visit for a full-body mole check. There were several "spots" that I felt needed close inspection which he did and explained whether they were concerning or not. He fielded all of my questions and gave answers that were well thought out, clearly communicated and based in science. I never felt like he was rushed which is a rarity in today's medical system. I would not hesitate to return for another mole check or any dermatological condition.
