Our Story

Old School Surgeon, New School Knowledge

A Modern Practice with a Personal Touch

As modern medicine has become more impersonal and rushed, many of us miss the days when physicians and staff took the time to provide kinder, higher quality, and more individualized care.

Dr. Dhir and his wife of 28 years, Nathalie Dhir, BSN, created Arizona Mohs Surgery & Dermatology to provide the best of both worlds: top-quality, experienced surgical & dermatologic care in a personable, attentive, cost-effective setting.

Arizona Mohs Surgery & Dermatology's team has worked together for many years, and is committed to compassionate care and the pursuit of excellence. We pride ourselves on attention to detail. Our dedicated staff looks forward to treating you with the same kindness, respect, and concern that we would extend to our own family and friends.

Outside of medicine, Dr. Dhir and Nathalie enjoy physical fitness and cooking, and spend as much time as possible with their two grown children, Joshua and Emilie, who both live in New York City. Dr. Dhir has also pursued an amateur career in automotive racing, and Nathalie has produced an award-winning feature film, Burning Kentucky.

Shelby Coplen, PA-C, Taylor Foxworthy, PA-C, and Tabitha Bayne, PA-C, joined our experienced team from 2024-26.  Shelby has practiced medical & surgical dermatology in Tucson since 2018, and Taylor has worked in both dermatology and pediatrics. Tabitha has practiced Dermatology since 2015 at Massachusetts General Hospital, Tucson, and then Oregon.  They also previously all worked together at another local practice.  They are experts in skin cancer screenings, non-Mohs treatment of skin cancer, and treatment of rashes, psoriasis, rosacea, and acne.

Our facility was constructed using the highest quality, "Made-in-the-USA" components and local Tucson talent wherever possible. Over 94% of our building materials, furnishings, fixtures, and equipment is manufactured in the United States, with some surgical instruments and our Zeiss microscope sourced from Germany, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom. Other than our Apple iMacs and iPads, very few items were sourced from China and only when no other viable option was available. We would like to acknowledge the outstanding work done on our behalf by local businesses such as Eglin & Bresler Architects, Venture West Construction, Goodmans Interior Structures, National Bank of Arizona, Desert Lab Studio, AV Specialists, Stat Computer Services, Illuminations, Millwork by Design, Achilles, Aztec Flooring, Effective Signs, Hall Custom Painting, and Creative Printers. Many of these companies went the extra mile to achieve our Made-in-America goal.

Arizona Mohs Surgery & Dermatology demonstrates its commitment to community and country via support of several nonprofits, including Arizona Heroes Memorial, Los Charros Foundation (FFA and 4H), Therapeutic Riding of Tucson, the Jewish Community Center's Garden of Hope, Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Camp Valor Outdoors, Wreaths Across America, and Angel Charity.

You have been absolutely wonderful during this surgery. Thanks so much for your genuine concern and kindness.

You truly are the epitome of a great physician—one to be highly recommended, respected, and recognized. Thanks so much for a job well done and for treating your patients as people, not simply a paycheck.

While it's never fun to have surgery, the staff at Arizona Mohs Surgery make it the best possible experience.  I hope that I'm forever cancer free but if I have to have more surgery, thanks to your team, I won't go into it with fear and trepidation.

I felt compelled to write you based on my superior care.  There is not a 'health grade' that is high enough to describe your caring of me.  I have had some excellent care in Tucson but your efforts are over the top of the others.

Dr. Dhir and Jackie, I am blessed to have you be my Mohs team!  Thank you!

I guess that is what makes your so special. And for all the phone calls you have made, checking on me after surgeries, that means the world to me. I just hope you and your staff realize how special you are to me and my family. Without you, this journey might not have lasted this long. Thanks for everything in helping me fight this disease.
