2 Week wait Skin Cancer Clinic

"2 Week wait Skin Cancer Clinic"

About: North Devon District Hospital / Dermatology

(as the patient),

I visited the Clinic to have my 2 longstanding warty lesions to be examined and was greeted by very pleasant and polite Receptionist and Nurse, only to be shown to the examination room, where Dr Willcock checked my warty lesions, explaining as he went along, and eventually explained that there was no evidence of any skin cancer but they were seborrhoeic keratosis which does not require any treatment.

Dear leatheryq73,

Many thanks for giving your feedback of your recent visit to Dermatology with Dr Willcock.

I am delighted to hear you found the receptionist and Nurse to be pleasant and polite and that you felt Dr Willcock explained the procedure. I am so pleased to hear you do not have skin cancer, and that no further treatment is needed.

Kind regards

Alicia
