About Dr. Campbell
Dr. Ross Campbell is board-certified by the American Board of Dermatology and has completed fellowship training in Mohs Surgery and Procedural Dermatology. He has served on the board of the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery.
Although Mohs surgery can be performed by physicians without completing a fellowship, the pursuit of excellence in medical and surgical care led Dr. Campbell to spend an extra year of fellowship at one of the busiest and most acclaimed Mohs surgery and cosmetic dermatology practices in the country. During that combined ACGME procedural dermatology fellowship, he performed nearly 3,000 Mohs surgery cases and became an expert in aesthetic procedures.
Dr. Campbell has lectured nationally, instructing dermatologists and plastic surgeons on dermatologic and aesthetic surgery. He has published in numerous dermatologic and cosmetic surgery journals and authored several book chapters on surgical and cosmetic procedures. Most importantly, he has completed over 65,000 Mohs surgeries, with an infection and recurrence rate well below national statistics.

Why it matters
What "fellowship-trained" means for your Mohs surgery
Fellows of the American College of Mohs Surgery (ACMS) complete an additional one to two years of fellowship training after residency. It ensures the surgeon is expertly trained not only in removing the tumor but, more importantly, in accurately evaluating the pathology, so you and your surgeon can both be assured the skin cancer is completely removed. The training also includes extensive experience in reconstruction alongside plastic surgery, otolaryngology and oculoplastic surgery.
The ACMS graduates approximately 70 Mohs surgeons a year, and Dr. Campbell is one of the few fellowship-trained Mohs surgeons in North Georgia, reaching Gainesville, Lake Oconee, Athens and the surrounding communities.
Family
Dr. Campbell and his family, wife Leigh and sons Aidan and Silas, moved to Athens in 2007 to open Georgia Skin Cancer and Aesthetic Dermatology and to be closer to other family members.
Ross and Leigh both attended the University of Georgia and have a strong attachment to the region. Leigh is a medical illustrator and an accomplished equestrian event rider.
