Trusted Skin Care for Our Desert Community: Skin Cancer and Dermatology Services at Eisenhower Health

“In a community where skin cancer is common, medical dermatologists should be uncommonly good.”
Eisenhower Health Dermatology

In the sun-drenched Coachella Valley, skin care isn’t just about appearance—it’s about health. At Eisenhower Health, we understand the unique needs of our desert community and offer expert dermatology services with a strong focus on skin cancer prevention, diagnosis, and treatment.

Why Skin Health Matters

More Americans are diagnosed with skin cancer each year than all other cancers combined. With our region’s high UV exposure, regular skin checks are essential. That’s why Eisenhower’s Dermatology team provides comprehensive care — from routine skin exams to advanced treatments for complex conditions.

Eisenhower Health is home to a skin cancer clinic headed by Board Certified Dermatologist Keyan Matinpour, MD. According to Dr. Matinpour, “Mohs surgery offers the highest cure rate, lowest recurrence rate and best cosmetic results of any skin cancer treatment we have today.” The Mohs procedure, unlike traditional excisional surgery, is much more precise—only taking as much tissue as is necessary—and uses local anesthesia. Examination of the tissue is also done immediately, making it one of the most efficient and effective treatment options.

Our board-certified dermatologists specialize in:

  • Full-body skin cancer screenings
  • Diagnosis and treatment of all skin cancer types, including melanoma
  • Non-surgical treatments, Mohs surgery, and reconstructive surgery
  • Treatment of chronic skin conditions like psoriasis, eczema, and acne
  • Cosmetic dermatology services

Should your screening reveal anything suspicious, our dermatology and oncology teams work together to determine the best course of action—whether that’s surgery, Mohs, radiation, medication, or referral to our nationally recognized Lucy Curci Cancer Center for advanced care.

Accessible, High-Quality Dermatology—Close to Home

With multiple locations throughout the valley, Eisenhower makes it easy to access the care you need. Whether you’re scheduling a yearly skin check or seeking treatment for a specific concern, our specialists are here to support your skin health at every stage of life.
