A skin cancer diagnosis can bring a lot of questions. Finding expert care close to home shouldn’t be one of them.

At Decatur County Hospital, Dr. Oben Ojong, DO, FAAD, offers Mohs surgery, a precise treatment for certain skin cancers that removes cancerous tissue one thin layer at a time. Each layer is checked under a microscope, helping preserve as much healthy skin as possible.

Having this highly specialized procedure available in rural southern Iowa brings care often associated with larger medical centers right to our community.
