• For patients where getting a comprehensive skin check for new or changing spots, especially with a history of significant sun exposure or family history of skin cancer is a concern, Dr. Nasirzadeh focuses on plans that lead to feeling genuinely and consistently supported by Dr. Nasirzadeh during emotionally difficult health transitions, when facing a serious or life-altering new diagnosis, or when undertaking the demanding role of caring for an ill or aging family member, supporting their ability to independently and efficiently performing all personal grooming and hygiene tasks (bathing, dressing, toileting) without any difficulty, assistance, or associated pain, maintaining their dignity.
• Dr. Nasirzadeh frequently helps patients who are dealing with needing support, resources, and a concrete plan to help them quit smoking for good this time.
