Mole Mobile bringing free skin cancer screenings back to Edmonton
The Mole Mobile is back in Edmonton this weekend.
The mobile skin cancer screening clinic will set up at West Edmonton Mall, at entrance 50 by the World Waterpark from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
According to Melanoma Canada, skin cancer is the most common cancer in Canada and getting access to dermatologists can be a challenge.
During the Mole Mobile's most recent launch in Alberta, Melanoma Canada said 932 people were screened for cancer at 14 stops around the province.
Dermatologists identified 15 possible melanomas, 62 suspected basal cell carcinomas and 33 possible cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas.
Two more stops in the capital region are planned for July at Save-on-Foods in St. Albert and Spruce Grove and Edmonton.
