Skin Cancer Clinic

Skin cancer is the most commonly diagnosed form of cancer. 2 out 3 Australians will be diagnosed with skin cancer by the age of 70.

Our clinic uses the latest high-resolution Total Body Photography and Dermoscopy skin imaging technology. It enables us to detect and diagnose skin cancers at an early stage and to monitor any suspicious lesions, as well as avoid unnecessary surgery.

Comprehensive skin checks are now a two-step process, starting with Step 1. Total Body Photography followed by Step 2. Dermoscopy skin cancer check with the skin cancer doctor where highly magnified images of atypical moles can be assessed and analysed.

If you have more than 100 moles a longer appointment is required.
