      I have two small deep dark moles one arm and  foot. Although very small but it's very strange: no spread, periodically grow up with tough shell then drop, again and again for 3 years. After seeing some material, I'm so afraid that they are or would become nodular melanoma, which grow without spread.

      I will stay in San Francisco this winter, so want to see a dermatologist in UCSF (referenced by posts in this forum). However, some posts say that NM is so easy to be missed, so could anyone be so kind to recommend to me an experienced doctor in UCSF? Thanks a lot!
