Dermatologist Cronin is fourth candidate to seek Florida House seat Mayfield plans to leave
Dr. Terrence Cronin Jr., a Melbourne dermatologist, has become the fourth Republican candidate to announce his candidacy for the soon-to-open District 32 seat in the Florida House of Representatives.
That Central Brevard County seat now is held by Debbie Mayfield. But Mayfield plans to leave the seat to run for the Florida Senate in District 19, which covers Central and South Brevard. The Senate seat is being vacated by Randy Fine, who, in turn, is running for an open congressional seat.
Cronin is the immediate past president of the American Academy of Dermatology, and has advocated for skin-cancer patients for many years in Washington. He recently was appointed as an ambassador to the 26th World Congress of Dermatology, and has spoken internationally on skin-cancer treatments.
“As a physician, I know patients aren’t able to see their doctors of choice, and access to a physician has never been more difficult,” Cronin said. “I hope to be the patient’s voice in Tallahassee regarding health care.”
Cronin has been a local physician and business owner for over 25 years at the Cronin Skin Cancer Center, which he owns and operates with his father and niece. Cronin treats thousands of patients annually.
