From my Mayo dermatology department (Jacksonville) Mohs surgeons are specialty trained. May Jacksonville does not have a lot of them so delay is common. I had to wait 2 months for my last one. I have had about 6 MOHS surgeries.

Five months seems like a long time and I sure emphasize with you as I felt same even for 2 months. Have you asked to be put on a cancellation list?

Basal Cell Carcinoma (per my dermatologist) are slow growing cancers. The biggest threat (again per Dermatology) is growing into other skin areas, muscles, bones, etc. But remember it is slow growing.
