FREE SKIN CANCER SCREENINGS
Did you know that skin cancer is the most common type of cancer in the world? A skin cancer screening session with a board-certified dermatologist is a crucial step in maintaining your skin health. During the session, the dermatologist will carefully examine your skin, looking for any suspicious moles, growths or discolorations. They will evaluate
the site, shape, color, and texture of these skin abnormalities. By having your skin checked, you benefit from identifying potential signs of skin cancer at an early stage, significantly increasing the chances of successful treatment and reducing the risk of complications. Regular screenings provide peace of mind and may just save your life. Michael P. Conroy, MD and a staff of Certified Nurse Practitioners will provide free screenings on: Saturday, October 7, 2023 8:30-10:30 am Dublin Community Recreation Center, Classroom A
