Skin cancer medicine
Skin checks for life under the WA sun.
Living in the South West is wonderful — and tough on skin. Our GPs offer thorough skin checks, dermoscopy and on-site minor skin surgery.
Australia has the highest rates of skin cancer in the world. Most skin cancers are highly treatable when caught early, which is why a regular full-body skin check matters — particularly if you have fair skin, a history of sunburn, a family history of melanoma, or have noticed a changing spot.

Skin checks
A thorough examination from head to toe, using dermoscopy to assess any spots of concern.
Early detection
Most skin cancers — including melanoma — are highly treatable when caught early.
Minor surgery
Biopsies and excisions performed on-site in our procedure room under local anaesthetic.
Radiofrequency removal
Quick, no-stitch removal of benign skin lesions such as skin tags, fibromas and seborrheic keratoses, plus treatment for telangiectasia.
Ongoing surveillance
If you are higher risk, we will work with you on a sensible schedule of follow-up checks.
