Get to know Dermatologist Dr. Matthew Leboeuf, who serves patients in Lebanon, New Hampshire.
A competent dermatologist, Dr. Leboeuf is in practice at Dartmouth Hitchcock Clinics Heater Road in Lebanon, New Hampshire. His clinical interests lie in caring for patients with either advanced skin cancers or those located in anatomically challenging areas and the use of Mohs Micrographic Surgery to remove these cancers.
“A positive patient experience is critical for the successful treatment of skin cancer. I am committed to providing each patient with the most comfortable experience, minimizing stress that can sometimes surround a surgical procedure. As a Mohs surgeon, my goal is to use microscopic examination to ensure complete removal of the skin cancer while minimizing the amount of tissue removed. Being confident that the skin cancer is gone with the least amount of normal tissue removed makes it easier to restore appearance and function. This powerful technique combined with a thoughtful and compassionate team is why I am committed to taking care of patients with skin cancer” expressed the doctor.
Educated in the United States, he graduated with his medical degree and Doctor of Philosophy degree from the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine. He then went on to complete his internship at the Pennsylvania Hospital, before returning to the University of Pennsylvania for his residency in dermatology. Finally, he completed his fellowship in Mohs micrographic surgery and dermatologic oncology at the University of Vermont.
Passionate about his profession, the doctor is board-certified in dermatology by the American Board of Dermatology, which is a voluntary, non-profit, private, autonomous organization formed for the primary purpose of protecting the public interest by establishing and maintaining high standards of training, education, and qualifications of physicians rendering care in dermatology.
Alongside his clinical role, Dr. Leboeuf serves as an Assistant Professor of Dermatology at the Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth.
A keen researcher, his research interests are focused on methods to improve tumor margin analysis and tumor clearance including the use of machine learning and artificial intelligence to accomplish this. This involves Application of Mohs Micrographic Surgery methodologies to build a model system that allows for accurate and efficient evaluation of tumor margins for the presence or absence of tumor and subsequent tumor mapping.
Dermatology is the branch of medicine dealing with the skin. The skin is the largest organ of the body. Dermatology is a specialty with both medical and surgical aspects. A dermatologist is a specialist doctor who manages skin diseases and deals with both internal and external causes and some cosmetic concerns involving the skin. Dermatological duties include taking consultations, providing screening tests, and undertaking non-invasive surgical procedures.
