In collaboration with the American Academy of Dermatology as part of National Skin Cancer Awareness Month, the physicians and staff at the UMMC Department of Dermatology offered a free skin cancer screening in May to UMMC employees and to the public by appointment. This past year, 120 patients were seen, and multiple patients were referred for suspicious lesions.
