I went to Dr. Krell to check a mole that my primary care doctor did not like and to treat a rash I had been told was contact dermatitis by other doctors. The mole was fine but he found a melanoma others has missed, removed it, followed up and I have had no other issues in that area for 7 years. He also said the "rash" was psoriasis. When it did not clear he got me into a drug study. When that failed he worked aggressively to help. It is now clearing and I am much better. I can now sleep at night without waking up itching and I can wear shorts, etc. without being stared at. Previous to him I was given creams and other treatments for dermatitis and exema. So both times Dr. Krell went beyond the norm and really solved my problem. More importantly three other doctors did think dark spot on my arm was a concern and one told me it was a birthmark even though I had only had it a year. Dr. Krell did the biopsy, his office called me the next day for immediate removal of the melanoma.
