Merkel Cell Carcinoma
Skin cancers account for one of the most common types of cancer in the United States, most of which are non-melanoma skin cancers. One such cancer includes Merkel cell carcinoma. Treatment options for Merkel cell carcinoma depend on the patient’s history, clinical status, and cancer stage, and the options include surgery, radiation therapy, systemic therapy such as chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and even clinical trials. Therefore, it is important for patients to be educated by their team on all of their treatment options, not just surgery, before proceeding with treatment.
Sarcoma
Skin cancers account for one of the most common types of cancer in the United States, most of which are non-melanoma skin cancers. One such cancer includes sarcoma and even dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans. Treatment options for sarcoma depend on the patient’s history, clinical status, and cancer stage and subtype of sarcoma, and the options include surgery, radiation therapy, systemic therapy such as chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and even clinical trials.

Dr. Rashid saved my life! He was compassionate and walked us through every step of my surgery and recovery. His nurse Khin was amazing and understanding.

Amazing doctor! Dr. Rashid allowed me to be part of a new castle scan study that allowed us to find out if my melanoma tissue shows high or low risk for recurrence and how likely it is to be in my lymph nodes. The result of this test gave me peace of mind that I’m low risk and my anxiety has gone down tremendously!! thank you for that! When i did go to his office to speak with him, he sat with me for almost an hour explaining everything in detail and taking his time to make sure I understand everything. He is very kind and patient and I highly recommend him if you are researching to find a doctor!
