Mohs Micrographic Surgery Volume
Completed Mohs surgeries by year — the gold standard for treating basal and squamous cell skin cancer.
Where the Skin Cancers Are
Anatomic distribution of Belaray's Mohs cases.
Nearly two-thirds of Belaray's Mohs surgeries involve skin cancers of the head and neck (about 63% in 2025) — a high proportion of the anatomically complex skin cancers on the nose, ear, lip, cheek, and eyelid, where margin control and reconstruction matter most.
Biopsies & Conditions Treated
Annual clinical volume across medical and surgical dermatology.
Why This Matters
Volume and consistency are part of what makes a skin cancer practice reliable. Belaray physicians perform more than 2,200 Mohs surgeries a year — a depth of experience concentrated across three dual board-certified Mohs surgeons rather than a single occasional operator. Because nearly two-thirds of those cases involve the head and neck, the practice sees a high proportion of the anatomically complex cancers — nose, ear, lip, and eyelid — where margin control and reconstruction matter most.
For referring physicians, that means a dependable destination for difficult cases across Nassau and Suffolk County. For patients, it means that when reconstruction is appropriate, tumor removal and wound repair — including delicate periocular reconstruction — are generally handled the same day, under one roof.

Methodology
Figures are derived from Belaray Dermatology's own clinical records — CPT-coded procedures and ICD-10 coded diagnoses recorded in the practice's clinical systems. Mohs surgery counts reflect first-stage Mohs procedures (CPT 17311 and 17313); anatomic location is determined using the ICD-10 diagnosis associated with each Mohs case. Skin biopsy counts include all biopsy procedures (CPT 11102–11107). Condition counts are unique patients with the corresponding ICD-10 diagnoses — actinic keratoses (L57.0) and eczema, dermatitis, and related inflammatory skin conditions (the L20–L30 range). Patient counts are unique patients. Patients may appear in more than one clinical category, and figures are rounded where appropriate. 2026 figures are year-to-date through August 28, 2026.
