Carolyn most likely saved my son's life last month...

Carolyn most likely saved my son's life last month. We have a family history of malignant melanoma. My 30 year-old son went to a dermatologist in Orem for an annual check who simply asked my son if he had any moles he was concerned about. Not acceptable when you re seeing a patient with a family history of malignant melanoma. My wonderful and vigilant daughter-in-law made sure my son had an appointment at Alpine Dermatology even though he was "seen" by the other derm just 2 months prior. During the full body check, Carolyn saw one little mole that "just didn't look like his neighbors" and did a biopsy. My son was diagnosed with aggressive but early stage malignant melanoma. Had he waited another full year and followed-up with the initial derm who wasn't as thorough as he should have been, we could have had a much different outcome. Thank you, Carolyn, we are forever grateful ... and to Dr. Eberting who has always taken such good care of our family.
