After performing hundreds of skin cancer surgeries, he has now dedicated himself to increasing awareness of the danger of skin cancer and the importance of educating the public on prevention. At Deseret Aesthetic & Lifestyle Institute he has opened the door for this type of education, teaching all of his patients the importance of sunscreen and limited sun exposure.
