Do you know the ABCDE’s of melanoma?

When checking your moles, these five features help flag lesions that may need closer evaluation:
A – Asymmetry: One half doesn’t match the other.
B – Border: Edges are irregular, scalloped, or poorly defined.
C – Color: Multiple colors or uneven shading within the same lesion.
D – Diameter: Larger than 6 mm (about the size of a pencil eraser), though melanomas can be smaller.
E – Evolving: Any change in size, shape, color, or symptoms (itching, bleeding).

This image shows a benign-appearing mole on a young female patient. It is symmetric, has smooth borders, uniform color, and has not changed over time—features that are reassuring. Still, any new or changing spot deserves medical attention.

Skin checks save lives!

Forever learning! ⚕️

Dr. Gerace spent the evening becoming certified in the insertion and removal of the Nexplanon contraceptive implant. A tiny rod implanted beneath the skin of the upper arm, Nexplanon is one of the most effective forms of birth control, providing 99% effective contraception for up to 3 years.

We’re always excited to grow our skills and better serve our patients. ✨

Thank you to Organon for the excellent training!

Before & After: 3 weeks of healing ✨

This patient came to us with a painful, swollen abscess on his arm. We were able to get him in within a couple of days, drain it right here in the office, and provide all necessary follow-up — at no extra cost beyond his monthly membership.

Three weeks later, he’s pain-free and healing beautifully!

At Highlands DPC, we’re grateful to be able to offer this kind of timely, hands-on care when our patients need it most — without the delays, copays, or urgent care bills.

October marks Breast Cancer Awareness Month 🎗️

Did you know that 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime?

The best defense is catching it early — and that starts with regular screening. If you’re due for a mammogram, now is the time to schedule it!

Talk with your primary care physician about your personal breast cancer risk — screening recommendations can look different for everyone.

Healthcare just got smarter for 2026 ✨

Starting January 1, individuals who don’t qualify for ACA subsidies will be able to buy catastrophic Marketplace plans—not just those under 30! Even better:
- These plans will now be HSA-eligible
- DPC memberships count as HSA-qualified medical expenses
- Patients can pair a low-cost catastrophic plan with unlimited DPC access—and pay for DPC pre-tax with HSA funds.

This means: unlimited primary care via DPC, steep discounts on labs/imaging, wholesale meds, and true catastrophic protection.

A major step toward accessible, affordable, patient-centered care!
