Our Physicians

	Dr. Sidney Olansky In loving memory of Dr. Sidney Olansky. (1914-2008) Dr. Sidney Olansky was a pioneer in the late 1950's as the Director of Venereal Disease Research Laboratory at the CDC in Atlanta. In 1981, Dr. Sid, as he is affectionately called, left Emory to join his two sons in the practice of dermatology. Dr. Sid had many years of experience. He believed that patient education was a vital part of therapy, and that an informed patient was most likely to have the best outcome. Click Here for Full Profile.
	Dr. Alan Olansky Dr. Alan Olansky has over 20 years of experience in Dermatology. The formation of the group happened somewhat by chance in that patriarch Dr. Sidney Olansky happened to reach mandatory retirement age at Emory University by the time his two sons, David and Alan, finished residencies in Dermatology. Hence, Olansky Dermatology Associates was born! Click Here for Full Profile.
	Dr. David Olansky Dr. Dave is a MOHS micrographic surgeon. This surgical technique treats difficult skin cancers with over a 99% cure rate and is a highly specialized area. Dr. Dave studied this technique under Dr. Mohs, the founder, at the University of Wisconsin. Click Here for Full Profile.

Originally hailing from New York City, Dr. Ganz fell in love with the South while training at UVa.
