Summer is coming and before that happens, the skin experts at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital recommend that you have your skin checked for moles or irritations.

Moles can often turn into pre-cancerous lesions—which, if removed, are not a problem. Other moles or irritations may actually be skin cancer—which is often treatable when caught early.

The physicians in the Department of Dermatology at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital will host two free skin cancer screening sessions.
