Dr Alam seems very good. Overall, he seems like an experienced and talented doctor for Mohs surgery and generally a good communicator. However, when I had my first round of Mohs there were two fellows with him. I assumed that the fellows would be observing and learning from Dr Alam performing the procedure. There was no discussion/disclosure that they would be involved in performing the procedure and they covered my eyes before beginning the procedure so I could not easily see what each person was doing. During the first round I came to realize that although Dr Alam was talking me through what was happening, it was one of the fellows who was actually cutting into me. I also needed a 2nd round and Dr Alam did not even come into the room for the 2nd round. The fellow who performed the 2nd round did not communicate at all and the procedure seemed significantly rougher and rushed than the 1st round. Unlike when Dr Alam was in the room for the 1st round there was no forewarning of what would happen next (e.g., the cauterizing process). There should be full communication before the procedure begins about what role, if any, is intended for anyone other than Dr Alam with an opportunity for the patient to say yes or no to the proposed role of the fellow, particularly considering this procedure was cutting into two locations on my face. I was very uncomfortable with what was happening during the 2nd round, but I was put in a very difficult position to address it. I still do not know the name of the fellow who actually performed the procedure. I looked in MyChart today and there are no notes or records related to what happened, what was found, what was done during the procedure.

Dr. Alam is very skilled at reviewing skin concerns and analyzing oddities quickly; he also trusts his team to handle certain measures that most teaching doctors don't allow for. This improves the learning of the team and improves the patient's confidence in his skill level.
