Skin Cancer Screening
Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer in the world. Detecting skin cancer early is the most important way to prevent it from negative outcomes. Skin cancers can present in various ways, therefore it is vital to have your skin checked by a Board Certified Dermatologist at least yearly, and it is especially important for those who have a personal or family history of the cancer, have a history of sunburns, or spend a lot of time outside.
Our Board-Certified Dermatologist will carefully inspect your skin for signs of any abnormal moles or other growths that might be cancerous or precancerous. You can contact us to book a consultation today to learn more about Skin Cancer Screening.
