Monterey, CAÂ Don’t Let COVID-19 Prevent You From Regular Skin Cancer Checkups
Coronavirus may be keeping you from going to the doctor as much as you need to. However, telemedicine makes it easy to see a doctor. Even dermatologists are now available via videoconference. A company called DermTech is transforming telemedicine to detect skin cancer. According to the American Cancer Society, melanoma has a 99% five-year survival rate if caught early. However, this survival rate drops to 65% if it has spread locally and 25% if spread distantly. If you are looking for a great local dermatologist, I recommend Joe Rheim. Give him a call at 931-373-4404. For more information, go to https://dermtech.com/
