Minor surgery

Back Home Up Next

Skin Surgery is undertaken in the practice.  You  will  need  to  discuss  your  requirements in an appointment with your  registered  doctor. We are  keen to  see  skin, which has changed or  you  are  worried about.  Our Thursday  clinic removes  a range  of skin  lesions  such as sebaceous  cysts,  suspicious naevi and  troublesome  ingrowing toenails.
 
Unfortunately we have had  a  funding  claw  back  from the  Primary Care Trust so many skin  lesions,  which  do not  need removal on purely  medical  grounds are no longer  funded. We are  looking at  setting  up  a service  with  Ocean Health  for  those  annoying  skin  tags and  seborrhoeic  warts that owners  would like removed.
