Melanoma is the fifth most common cancer for males and the seventh most common cancer for females.

That is why OhioHealth is taking a stand against skin cancer by offering free skin cancer screenings at our Radiation Oncology facility to the Marion and surrounding community.

This skin cancer screening includes a visual inspection of your skin by a licensed dermatologist. No blood work is conducted at a screening.

Screenings are being offered on Thursday, May 5, 2016 from 5 to 7 p.m. at OhioHealth Radiation Oncology, 1150 Crescent Heights Road, Marion.

No physician order is required. To make an appointment for a free screening, call 614-566-4321 or 800-752-9119.
