One of five Americans will be diagnosed with skin cancer during their lifetime. To see if you are at risk visit the Melanoma Monday screening event.

For three hours on Monday May 4, dermatologists will be available to perform skin cancer checks. Lewis Drug at 41st and Minnesota will be the place and the timing will be from 4:30 PM to 7:30 PM.

This will be a collaborative effort among Sanford, Avera and Dakota Dermatology who will make their specialists available for this event. Even though the event is free, an appointment is required. To set your appointment, call Avera McKennan Hospital at 1-877-282-8372.

May is Melanoma/Skin Cancer Detection and Prevention Month. If you want to know more about the event, visit livewellsiouxfalls.org.
