The Department of Dermatology at Stanford Hospital is offering a free skin cancer screening on Saturday, May 14 from 9:00 a.m. to noon at the Stanford Cancer Center. The screening is open to everyone on a first-come, first-served basis at the Stanford Cancer Center.
Stanford dermatologists will be on hand to check for unusual moles or irregular blemishes that could be the beginnings of melanoma or the more common type of skin cancer, including basal cell and squamous cell carcinoma.
High risk individuals or those without regular dermatologic care are encouraged to attend. Individuals at a higher risk of developing melanoma are those who have had excessive exposure to the sun, have many moles, and/or have a first-degree relative who has had the disease.
