Dr. Adam Mamelak and Dr. Miriam Hanson are now featured in the recent issue of the Community Impact Austin, where Dr. Mamelak goes into detail about skin cancer awareness and its relation to pop culture.
“It sounds funny, but this is what people talk about,” he said. “They see it on TV, they see it in culture and the next thing they do is sign up for a [tanning] package.”
Dr. Hanson also highlights the importance of daily sunscreen use with her patients because it can reduce the risk of developing melanoma by 50 percent. Dr. Mamelak then discusses how Sanova Dermatology is different from other Austin-area Dermatology offices.
“No one likes the word ‘cancer,’ and it’s obviously a bit scary,” he said. “We’ve designed this in such a way that it’s extremely comfortable.”
He also shared information about the state-of-the-art Mohs surgery, referencing its ability to save lives of those affected by skin cancer.
“The biggest thing is by the time they leave here, they know with over 99 percent certainty that the cancer will never come back,” he said. “I don’t know of any other cancer treatment that can give you that kind of cure rate.”
