Hi, I'm Mary Frausto, a dermatology nurse practitioner with over 10 years of experience. I'd like to share a story about a patient who came in to have a spot checked. She wasn't sure if it was concerning, but after a biopsy, it turned out to be melanoma, one of the most dangerous types of skin cancers.
She had to undergo surgery and a sentinel lymph node biopsy, which revealed some metastasis. Thankfully, because she sought care early, her outcome was positive. She often tells me how grateful she is, saying I saved her life.
This story highlights the importance of regular skin checks. If you're unsure about a spot on your skin, we're here to help. Early detection can make all the difference.
