FREE Skin Cancer Screening

Skin Cancer affects 1 in 5 Americans. If detected and treated early, there is a 98% cure rate.

Free melanoma and other skin cancer screenings, available to the public, will be conducted from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. April 13 at Advanced Dermatology, 315 Grant Ave. in Lake Katrine, in partnership with HealthAlliance Hospitals, a member of the Westchester Medical Center Health Network (WMCHealth).

The painless, quick visual exams — performed by Kenneth T. Kircher, DO, FAOCD, a board-certified dermatologist and member of the HealthAlliance medical staff, along with Lia Basso, PA-C, and Emily O'Carroll, PA-C — will be done through the SPOTme skin cancer screening program, the American Academy of Dermatology’s longest-standing public health program.

Screenings are free and open to the public. Appointments are required. To make one, please call the HealthAlliance Oncology Support Program at 845.339.2071.
