Dr. Richard White, Secretary-Treasurer-Elect of the South Carolina Dermatological Association, lectured at the recent SCDA’s annual education meeting on The Role of the Dermatologist in Inherited Cancer Syndromes. Dr. White also presented a similar lecture at the American Academy of Dermatology’s Annual Meeting in New Orleans this year.
To an audience of over 150 dermatologists from 5 states, Dr. White discussed ways in which dermatologists can identify and screen for patients and families who may be at risk for an inherited cancer syndrome such as breast, ovarian, colon, renal, pancreatic, and melanoma.
Dr. White’s wife, Brook White, is a genetics counselor at Carolinas Medical Center in Charlotte, NC.
