What happens
A trained melanoma Nurse Educator looks at up to three spots you are unsure about. The check is non-invasive and takes about five minutes, and you leave knowing what to watch for.
It is not a full-body check and it is not a diagnosis. Keep having regular full-body skin checks with your GP, a dermatologist, a surgeon or a plastic surgeon.
No appointment needed
Spot checks are first come, first served. On a busy day there can be a wait.
If we cannot see you on the day, you can book a free online consultation with a Nurse Educator instead. Book an online consultation
Before you come
Have the exact name of your GP or clinic ready, so we can pass on anything they need to know.
