Free Skin Cancer Screenings Offered at SKINtastic Saturday

Do you have a spot on your skin? If so, it could be melanoma, the most serious form of skin cancer, and early detection may save your life. Southeast GeorgiaHealth System will offer a day of free skin and health screenings at its annual SKINtastic Saturday on June 8, 10a.m.-1 p.m. The event will take place on the Camden Campus main lobby, 2000 Dan Proctor Drive, St. Marys, Ga.

In addition to the free screenings by board-certified dermatologists and plastic surgeons, expert physicians will be on hand to answer skin-related health care questions. Additionally, free blood pressure, bone density and blood sugar screenings will be offered.

Participating experts include DiPreta Dermatology, Renue Plastic Surgery, Southeast Georgia Physician Associates-General Surgery; and Southeast Georgia Health System’s Breast Cancer Center and Wound Care Center.
