The Skin and Mole Clinic - Joondalup - FAQ
In Western Australia, 2 in 3 people will get
skin cancer. So it is recommended to get a skin check every 12 months.
Below is some information about the process of having a skin check at The Skin
and Mole Clinic - Joondalup
Location The Skin
and mole clinic is located at suite 1, 52 Davidson Terrace, Joondalup. Parking is available on most streets in Joondalup or there is
a car park at the Joondalup Library located across the road. What happens at the Clinic? Do I need a referral?
On arrival you will fill out a simple questionnaire
outlining you’re past skin cancer treatments, family history and other relevant
medical history. The doctor will then call you into the room and discuss this
with you to clarify any points of interest to him/her. After this you will
undress in private to your underwear.
Your examination

are a routine and vital part of your preventive healthcare routine. At The Skin
and Mole Clinic, we take this very seriously and no shortcuts are taken. Every
significant mole on your body will be subject to a computerized scan, including
all those that either you or your doctor is concerned about.
How long does it take?
Depending on the complexity of your skin &
moles, your examination should take approximately 15 minutes.
