Skin cancer doctor in Carindale, with onsite treatment.
See a skin cancer doctor in Carindale who can examine your skin, review your moles and manage suspicious spots in one place. If a lesion needs a biopsy or excision, it's arranged onsite rather than through another referral.
What a GP skin cancer doctor can do for you
Most skin cancers in Australia are diagnosed and treated by GPs. A skin cancer doctor at Carindale Doctors can examine your skin, assess suspicious spots with a dermatoscope, perform biopsies to confirm a diagnosis, remove skin cancers with excision and stitches, treat sunspots and superficial skin cancers with freezing or creams, and follow up your results.
For skin cancers that are large, deep, recurrent or in tricky locations such as the eyelids or nose, your GP will refer you to a dermatologist or plastic surgeon. Either way, you’ll have a skin cancer doctor who coordinates your care and keeps track of your skin over the years.
In short: Carindale Doctors’ skin cancer doctors inside Westfield Carindale examine skin, biopsy and excise skin cancers, treat sunspots and follow up results, with specialist referrals for complex cases. Most care happens onsite. Medicare rebates apply where eligible.
