Weather OK... now catching up from the pandemic! Also new phone hours
3/2/22: **UPDATE: We have new phone hours.**☎️
We want you to always be able to reach a person that can help you.
Our phone hours are daily 9am -12:30pm and 1:30-4pm so staff has time for lunch and to finish tasks.
Please know we are working extra hours to take care of everyone.
We are prioritizing acute rashes, lesions at risk for skin cancer and other urgent needs.
I appreciate your patience and understanding.
THREE NOTES ON SKIN CANCER SCREENING EXAMS:
1) Do you need one? Most people don't.
But we do need to promptly evaluate lesions that change or are unusual.
Per CDC web site,
" The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) has concluded there is not enough evidence to recommend for or against routine screening (total body examination by a doctor) to find skin cancers early. This recommendation is for people who do not have a history of skin cancer and who do not have any suspicious moles or other spots. Report any unusual moles or changes in your skin to your doctor. Also talk to your doctor if you are at increased risk of skin cancer."
2) A skin cancer screening exam is to screen for cancers and educate you about your cancer risks/how to reduce risks.
It is a complex visit that requires concentration and careful charting. They take extra time both in the office and after you leave the office.
If you have other skin issues/questions we will need to schedule another visit for the problems not related to the screening. Please be respectful of this as we are attending to the needs of all our patients.
3) I am booked out a few months for screening exams.
It is OK but if you have a concerning lesion, we will get you in within 2 weeks. See note below about how to reach me if you have trouble booking and you are concerned about a cancer.
WHAT I WANT YOU TO KNOW ABOUT SKIN CANCERS:
80% of melanomas are new so they usually come up between "screenings".
It is important that you know the red flags. If any lesion on your skin (especially if new) is black, itches for more than a month, changes over weeks to months or is an "ugly duckling" that looks different I need to see you within 2 weeks.
Basal cell and squamous cell skin cancers are most common, also are new and high-risk areas are head/neck areas.
Many people say they, "looked like a pimple" when they first appeared. So, if a "pimple" or "blemish" or "scratch" does not go away in 60 days I need to see it within 30 days. If it is growing quickly, I need to see you within 14 days.
SO HOW CAN YOU REACH US IF YOU NOTICE SOMETHING UNUSUAL OR CHANGING?
Please call us at 512-302-4047 and my team will get you in within 1-2 weeks depending on your flexibility.
You can also send us an email any time in the "Contact Us" section at bottom of this page and we will call you to schedule.
IF YOU ARE HAVING TROUBLE BOOKING FOR A VERY URGENT MATTER
(LIKE A CONCERN FOR SKIN CANCER)
You can send me a TEXT at 512-799-7681 and I will work with my team to get you taken care of in a timely fashion.
**But please always call the office or send email first and do not send any photos to this number.**
Thank you!
