Thirty years ago, very little was known about skin cancer and the importance of sun protection. A visionary young doctor saw the need for an organization devoted to skin cancer awareness. Under the leadership of Perry Robins, MD, The Skin Cancer Foundation has become the foremost organization devoted to educating the public and the medical profession about skin cancer, its prevention by means of sun protection, the need for early detection, and prompt, effective treatment. In honor of the Foundation's 30th Anniversary, a few of Dr. Robins' closest friends and colleagues gathered together for a unique opportunity to "roast and toast" him.
