Cesar Antonio Virgen, MD, PhD - MSK Dermatologist

I am a board-certified dermatologist with advanced fellowship training in cutaneous oncology, Mohs surgery, dermatologic surgery, and laser surgery. I specialize in the surgical treatment of early-stage melanoma and high risk non-melanoma skin cancers. I am the Director of Mohs and Dermatologic Surgery at Memorial Sloan Kettering. Mohs surgery is a specialized surgical technique with high cure rates for high risk skin cancers allowing precise removal of skin cancers while preserving the surrounding healthy tissue.

I am a board-certified dermatologist who specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of various skin conditions — particularly skin cancers including melanoma (the most dangerous form of skin cancer), genetic skin disorders, drug hypersensitivity reaction, therapy-induced skin toxicity, and skin manifestations of infections in immune-compromised individuals.

MSK dermatologist Alina Markova has expertise in treating dermatologic side effects of various cancer treatments.
