“The physicians affiliated with QualDerm and The Skin Surgery Center are known for providing the highest-quality dermatological care. I’m excited to join this well-respected network,” says Dr. Landon Stigall. “My goal is to create the best and most comprehensive center for skin cancer treatment – a place where patients know they will be well cared for; a place where I would want to be treated myself.”
Dr. Landon Stigall is a Fellowship-trained Mohs surgeon with extensive experience in both skin cancer removal and head and neck reconstruction. He is a North Carolina native who is happy to call Wilmington his home.

He completed his dermatology residency at Geisinger Health System. He then completed a Mohs Fellowship in Cutaneous Oncology. Dr. Stigall has a special interest in the treatment of high risk skin cancers and has several publications on advanced facial reconstruction and the surgical treatment of melanoma. He is board-certified in Dermatology, a fellow of the American College of Mohs Surgery, a member of the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery, and a member of the American Academy of Dermatology. To date he has performed over 5,000 Mohs surgeries.
Dr. Erin Stigall is certified by the American Board of Dermatology. She has extensive experience in general and cosmetic dermatology and specializes in a variety of cosmetic procedures, including laser treatments, chemical peels, neurotoxins, fillers and Kybella. She completed a dermatology residency at Geisinger Medical Center and a medical internship at the University of Louisville School of Medicine in Louisville, KY.
“We’re pleased that Landon and Erin have chosen to partner with QualDerm and The Skin Surgery Center,” says Bill Southwick, Chief Executive Officer of QualDerm. “Their focus on providing high-quality dermatology and skin cancer care truly benefits patients throughout the Wilmington region.”
