Contrary to popular belief, a dermatologist may not be the first person to detect skin cancer. In the US two people die of skin cancer every hour. Due to the nature and proximity of our clinical examinations, we can detect abnormal growths on our patient’s faces, necks and scalps. In this course we will learn how to recognize abnormalities, provide patients’ education for oral side effects of cancer treatments, teach prevention techniques, screen for early detection, and provide prompt treatment.
