WALK IN CLINICS HELPING TO CHECK SKIN MELANOMA
I'm finding it difficult to find a Walk-In clinic that I would have access to to have my moles looked at.
I've also emailed this clinic but not sure it'll get responded to, so I've registered here and also sending the pictures of my moles on my body again.
I'm scared as my uncle who's a doctor died of Melanoma at 55 ! Caught too late we think.
Thanks

NB: the 5 pictures that I had taken of my moles is too big to attach it here. Maybe someone can get back to me that I can email them pictures to a skin specialists to review. Thanks again.

Dear Lee Lawler,
thank you for your questions. I am afraid we can not provide comments on images.
I would suggest that you would ask your GP to check your moles. If necessary your GP can sent you to a local moles and melanoma clinic. You can also self book yourself to see a dermatologist privately but this is expensive.
I hope this is helpful.
