Skin Cancer Screening Montclair | Image Dermatology | Better TV Show

Dr. Jeanine Downie, a leading board-certified dermatologist from Montclair, NJ, appears on this segment of 'The Better TV Show' to talk about skin cancer screening. Many smartphone apps are out to help determine if a mole is cancerous, and Dr. Downie advises not to trust them. A recent study by the University of Pittsburgh shows several of these apps had actually mis-identified several cancerous moles on different patients as being benign. Those patients who do nothing about the cancer have died as a result of it. Dr. Downie estimates that if you live to the age of 65, especially if you are male, the chances are that you will have a form of skin cancer within your lifetime. The best way to tell is to go to a board-certified dermatologist. Dr. Downie is very experienced at treating different types of skin cancer.
