During a visit to a local branch, Robyn noticed that HCF offers MoleMap skin checks to eligible members### - so she took advantage and booked a skin cancer check.
When the results came back as very early stages of melanoma, Robyn was shocked but grateful to be catching it early and avoid surgery.
“I’m so grateful HCF offered me the opportunity to use this service, otherwise the melanoma could have been more aggressive. It makes me feel like HCF actually cares about my health.”
