Free Skin

Cancer Screening

BROOKFIELD – On Saturday, November 6, from 9 am to noon, the Brookfield Health Center and Dermatology Associates will sponsor a free skin cancer screening. The screening will take place at the Brookfield Health Center located at 31 Old Route 7 in Brookfield.

According to the American Academy of Dermatology, skin cancer is the most prevalent of all cancers. Estimates vary on its occurrence, but it is estimated that approximately 700,000 Americans develop skin cancer every year. Fortunately, skin cancers are relatively easy to detect and most can be cured. Even malignant melanoma, if caught in its early stages, can be treated successfully.

Pre-registration  for this free screening is required and appointments can be made by calling 350-7217 or 800/350-1595.
