Online Skin Cancer Consults during COVID-19
If you have any questions the FAQ section should be helpful:
During skin checks we use a couple of microscopes to check moles. These provides magnification, illumination and allows vision further into the lower levels of the skin. This is an essential tool in the assessment of suspicious skin lesions. Now obviously we can’t be there to use the scope for you so you will have to acquire one yourself. Below are a few options, and remember, this is an avenue we can continue long after COVID-19 lockdown ceases.
Currently $149 AUD if ordered through Dermengine
We hope you consider using this service we are providing to ensure the ongoing surveillance of your skin lesions. We are not currently doing any minor surgery at Henderson Medical Centre whilst in lockdown but I can still make referrals to the DHB Hospital Skin Cancer service.
