Five Minutes Could Save Your Life.
New Zealand has the highest melanoma incidence rate in the world. More than 7,200 melanomas are diagnosed each year and around 300 lives are lost. Early detection greatly improves survival.
Allevia Radiology and Melanoma New Zealand are partnering to provide free spot checks and melanoma education across several Auckland communities this April and May. A qualified Melanoma New Zealand Nurse Educator will assess up to three spots or lesions and advise if follow up with a GP or skin specialist is recommended.
