Doctors offer free health screenings

Free screenings will be offered Saturday in Simi Valley for skin cancer, blood pressure and blood sugar levels.

The screenings will be from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Suite 209 of the Aspen Outpatient Center, 2750 Sycamore Drive. Participants will receive a computer printout assessing their risks of skin cancer. People with suspicious lesions or growths will be provided with the name of a dermatologist for follow-up treatment.

The screenings are being provided by two doctors: internal medicine physician Mojgan Makhsoosi and dermatologist Shabnam Madani. People should make reservations by calling 915-0315.
