Aus­tralia has one of the high­est rates of skin can­cer in the world. Two out of three Aus­tralians will be diag­nosed with skin can­cer by the age of 70. If detect­ed ear­ly most skin can­cers are suc­cess­ful­ly treat­ed. Our doc­tors are expe­ri­enced in per­form­ing skin checks. A der­mato­scope which allows high mag­ni­fi­ca­tion of the skin lesion may be used to assist the doc­tor in per­form­ing skin checks. Minor lesions may be removed or biop­sied by the doctor.
