Skin check clinic in Carindale, all in one place.
Our skin check clinic in Carindale brings full body examinations, mole reviews and spot checks together in one practice. If treatment is needed, biopsies and excisions happen here too, without a separate referral.
From skin check to treatment in one practice
Finding a suspicious spot is only the first step. What matters next is how quickly it’s diagnosed and treated. At our skin check clinic in Carindale, the same practice that checks your skin can also take a biopsy, remove the spot with an excision, send it to pathology and follow up the results, without a separate referral or long wait for most procedures.
Keeping everything in one place means fewer appointments, faster answers and a GP who knows your history. If a skin cancer needs specialist treatment, such as a complex melanoma or a lesion in a difficult spot, we’ll arrange the referral and stay involved in your care.
In short: Carindale Doctors’ skin check clinic inside Westfield Carindale offers full body checks, mole reviews, spot checks, biopsies, excisions and pathology follow-up in one practice. Specialist referrals are arranged when needed. Medicare rebates apply where eligible.

If your skin check finds something
If a spot needs attention, the next step depends on what it looks like:
- Monitor: photograph and recheck in a few months.
- Biopsy: a small sample taken for testing.
- Excision: removing the whole spot with a margin of normal skin.
- Referral: to a specialist for complex cases.
Your GP will explain why each option is recommended.
