Dr. Christopher speaks regularly on prevention, early detection, and systemic failures in dermatology training across health, wellness, and longevity-focused media, and has made it his mission to change the standard of care before more people die from a cancer that is almost always curable when caught early.&nbsp; &nbsp; Dave and Dr. Christopher break down why a standard skin exam with no&nbsp;additional&nbsp;tools is&nbsp;essentially a&nbsp;guess, how&nbsp;dermoscopy&nbsp;changes everything, and why most dermatologists who claim to use it&nbsp;actually cannot&nbsp;interpret what they see.
