Join our Dermatology Department for a free open house and skin cancer talk by Dr. Oliver Wisco.
With 3.5 million cases diagnosed annually, skin cancer is the most common form of cancer in the United States. Fortunately, skin cancer is also one of the most preventable forms of cancer. Dr. Wisco will talk about the effects sun has on your skin and what you can do to prevent sun damage.
The Summit Health Dermatology Open House is free to the public. In addition to Dr. Wisco’s talk, the public can meet Summit Health Dermatology providers and staff, visit with an Elta skin care representative for product specials and information and get exclusive access to a Skin Ceuticals light box which reveals visible and underlying skin imperfections. Enter to win skin care prizes throughout the evening; in addition, several skin care products will be on sale. Light refreshments will be provided.

Summit Health’s ENERGY Department Presents the July Healthy Life Lesson:
You’ve heard it before… Americans just aren’t eating enough fruits and vegetables. Fruits and vegetables are the foundation of a healthy diet rich in vitamins, nutrients, antioxidants, fiber, and water. It’s hard to understand how so many can resist that gorgeous nutritional profile. But the hard facts tell us that less than 30% of us – that’s 7 out of every 10 Americans – are failing to meet the recommended 5 A-Day.

Skin cancer is a lifestyle disease, affecting young women, older men and everyone in between. One in five Americans will develop skin cancer in the course of a lifetime; 13 million Americans are living with a history of nonmelanoma skin cancer, and nearly 800,000 Americans are living with a history of melanoma, the most dangerous form of skin cancer.
But there is good news: because skin cancer is chiefly lifestyle disease, it is also highly preventable.
About 90 percent of nonmelanoma skin cancers and 65 percent of melanoma cases are associated with exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun. Everyone, regardless of skin color, should make staying safe in the sun a priority and incorporate sun protection measures into their daily life.

About The Presenter: Oliver J. Wisco, DO, FAAD, FACMS, is a former US Air Force physician that joins Summit Health as a Mohs Surgeon, Melanoma Specialist & General Dermatologist. Dr. Wisco completed medical school at the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine where he was awarded the school’s highest honor upon graduating, the Simmy Ginsburg Humanitarian Award. He then went on to dermatology residency training through the combined US Air Force and Army program at the San Antonio Uniformed Services Health Education Consortium in San Antonio, TX, where he received the highest distinction as the MAJ David S. Berry Outstanding Resident. After serving two years as a faculty member of the Air Force/Army dermatology residency program, he completed a dual Mohs Micrographic Surgery and Melanoma Fellowship at Mystic Valley Dermatology, Massachusetts General Hospital & Harvard Medical School in Boston, MA under Donald J.

Prior to joining Summit Health, Dr. Wisco was last stationed in the Air Force at Keesler Air Force Base in Biloxi, MS as the Dermatology Clinic Chief.

Dr. Wisco is board certified through the American Board of Dermatology and is a member of the American College of Mohs Surgery.
In addition to his clinical work, Dr. Wisco is heavily involved in healthcare reform initiatives through the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD). His work guided the development of the AAD’s national performance measurement system for all of dermatology. Dr. Wisco’s interest in healthcare performance improvement parallels his research interest of understanding the risk factors that lead to high-risk skin cancer and advanced melanoma in order to improve care processes and promote health. Dr. Wisco brings to Summit Health a distinct patient-centered approach to treating patients with high-risk skin cancer, with an overlying priority of guiding the region’s population in the prevention of melanoma.
As a native Oregonian, Dr. Wisco is proud to have the opportunity to return home after his time in the military to serve his home state. During his free time, you can find Dr. Wisco with his wife and two daughters. Most of the time he will likely be somewhere outdoors with them either running, biking, or skiing…enjoying the beautiful Bend area.
