In the United States, Black patients with melanoma have an estimated five-year melanoma survival rate of 70 percent, versus 94 percent for white patients. Late-stage melanoma diagnoses are more common in Hispanic and Black patients than in non-Hispanic white patients. Awareness is key to change this narrative! #skincancerawareness #melanoma #healthcare #healthequity #joelbervell #medicine #doctor
