Columbus, Ga. (April 16, 2026) — The John B. Amos Cancer Center, in partnership with Southeast Dermatology Specialists, will host a free skin cancer screening on Friday, May 8, from 9 a.m. to noon at the cancer center’s June Wright Conference Room.

“Have you noticed an unusual mole or spot on your body? It's important to keep an eye on any changes in your skin because that is the most common sign of skin cancer,” said Kim Connally, PA-C, with Southeast Dermatology Specialists. “Don't wait until it's too late, get checked by a dermatology provider because early detection is key.”

Skin cancer is the most common form of cancer in the United States with over 5 million cases diagnosed in the United States each year. However, it is one of the most preventable forms of cancer.

No reservations are needed for the free screening, just walk in and get a spot check performed. Contact John B. Amos Cancer Center Oncology Outreach Coordinator Tenetta Holt at 706.320.8700 or email Tenetta.Holt@piedmont.org for more information.
