Skin Cancer - Are we fighting a losing battle

Skin Deep

Show Notes

Today I am joined by Dr Jenny Linders from Skincheck Clinic in Bayside, Jenny, under the guidance of Dr Steve Karagiannis, a fellow of the skin cancer institute, who spends most of their time doing melanoma surveillance in their five clinics dotted around Dublin. I have spent a considerable amount of my time campaigning for more awareness in this arena, as it sometimes feels that despite applying copious amounts of SPF, skin cancer continues to be the fastest-growing cancer in the world. We, as an industry, need to do more. My team and I have gone into schools to educate the next generation of parents, and I have worked with VHI on a corporate level, raising awareness and educating people. This is the only way to soften the curve, in my opinion. A podcast episode dedicated to what more we can do is a natural next step. For more information on Skin Check or to make an appointment to see Jenny, Steve, and their team, heads to https://www.skincheck.ie/contact-us. Thank you so much to Jenny for giving up her time to be with us today, and please share this episode amongst friends and family, and together, we will make a positive change for our children.
