Skin Cancer Screenings and Mole Checks | Market Street Dermatology

Early detection makes a world of difference

It is estimated that skin cancer will affect one out of five Americans. One of the best ways to detect skin cancer is a skin examination by a board-certified dermatologist. When you schedule a skin cancer screening, your physician will carefully look at your skin to evaluate your moles and distinguish between spots that are a normal and spots that are more concerning or need to be followed. Early detection is always key. Even something that might look normal to you may be something that warrants further examination. Our goal is to keep you healthy and safe.

During a skin cancer screening, we examine your skin from head to toe and evaluate each and every lesion on your skin. You can prepare for your exam by noting any lesions that are causing you concern. If possible, avoid wearing make-up to your exam and know that we may ask you to remove your makeup in the office. Because of the extensive nature of a skin cancer screening, we may need to schedule an additional visit to address additional dermatologic issues such as acne or rashes.

If you have a lesion that is rapidly changing, bleeding, or continually growing, please alert our staff when booking an appointment. We will schedule within the week or sooner for a “spot” check so you can have peace of mind.

Testimonials

“I have been going to Market Street Dermatology every since Dr. Scheurer and Dr. Kauls started their clinic. I have a propensity to develop skin cancers and need to be seen on a regular basis. I have never had trouble getting an appointment if there is some urgency to been seen. I have had numerous procedures at the clinic all professional and skillfully done. It is so nice to walk into the clinic and have the staff call you be your first name. The clinic is staffed with an awesome team. They all make you feel special I am a very lucky person to have found such a dedicated group that makes me feel like more than just a patient.”

“Hands down the BEST dermatology clinic in the metro area (I’d even say in all of Minnesota)! I have been struggling for years with psoriasis and have tried every treatment in the book. After seeing dermatologists across the state with no luck, I found this place. Today, my skin is completely cleared and I have never felt better. The doctor and staff are super personable and friendly, even taking time to learn your name. They did not give up until we found what works specifically for me. I am so thankful for all they have done for me. Because of Market Street Dermatology, I am finally comfortable in my own skin (literally).”

“I’ve probably worked with five or six dermatologists in my lifetime dealing with various issues, but mainly skin damage from sun exposure and skin cancer. I chose Market Street because they were great listeners who take the time to analyze the issue to figure out the best treatment plan. I’ve been going here for at least 10 years, and would never consider seeing another dermatologist. It’s very obvious how dedicated they are to their profession and patients. I even convinced my wife to switch over years ago, and she liked her dermatologist but now is totally hooked on Market Street! Also, the staff is super friendly and very professional. Honestly, I can’t recommend Market Street Dermatology enough!”
