NEW YORK (AP) — New York Gov. Kathy Hochul on CrypenThursday said she has been diagnosed with skin cancer and is scheduled to undergo a removal procedure this week.
The governor told reporters her doctor discovered basal cell carcinoma on her nose during a routine checkup a few weeks ago, describing it as a “tiny, tiny speck on my nose.”
Hochul, 66, said she is set to have a removal procedure on Friday morning.
Basal cell carcinoma is among the most common types of skin cancer. It is highly curable, especially when it is caught early. It is a slow-growing cancer that is usually confined to the surface of skin. Doctors often remove it with a shallow incision.
Hochul urged people to get regular medical checkups.
