Dr McKellar was exceptional in helping evaluate my recovery from surgery for removal of melanoma on my right temple. She works closely with the surgeon Dr Lowe and my dermatologist Dr Levine. As such, she was not only able to update me on my progress but also keep the two physicians informed as well.
