R. Makala Anders, MD, FAAD

Dr. R. Makala Anders

Dr. R. Makala Anders sees patients with all types of skin concerns in the Sonoma and Napa clinics. In addition, he has received extra training and expertise in dermatologic surgery including Mohs surgery.  Mohs micrographic surgery is the most effective and state-of-the-art procedure for skin cancer today, which offers the highest potential for recovery - even if the skin cancer has been previously treated by another method and recurred.

For a physician to become board certified, the physician must complete a three-year residency in dermatology and pass a rigorous two-part test administered by the American Board of Dermatology.
