  • What is a D.O.?

    The osteopathic philosophy of medicine sees an interrelated unity in all systems of the body, with each working with the other to heal in times of illness. Osteopathic medicine is practiced by Doctors of Osteopathic Medicine, or DOs, who bring a whole-person approach to care by focusing on looking beyond your symptoms to understand how lifestyle and environmental factors impact your wellbeing. The profession is one of the fastest growing segments in health care today, with one out of every four medical students enrolled in an osteopathic medical school.

  • How often should I get my skin checked?

    As part of a complete early detection strategy, we recommend that you see a dermatologist once a year, or more often if you are at a higher risk of skin cancer, for a full-body, professional skin exam.

  • What sunscreen do you recommend?

    Dr. Campbell recommends a broad spectrum sunscreen, meaning that it will protect against Ultraviolet A (UVA )and Ultraviolet B ( UVB). Both UVA and UVB can cause skin cancer and advanced photo-aging. Minimum of SPF 30, preferably SPF 50. It is also important to use the correct amount of sunscreen. To cover all exposed areas of the body, one ounce (or enough to fill a shot glass) is needed. Ask our team for specific sunscreen recommendations!
