Australian Skin Cancer Clinics - Erindale
About the Business
Welcome to Australian Skin Cancer Clinics - Erindale! Located in Wanniassa, McBryde Crescent, our clinic is dedicated to providing top-notch skin cancer care and prevention services.
At Australian Skin Cancer Clinics - Erindale, we understand that skin cancers do not hibernate during the winter months. While it may be tempting to cover up and forget about our skin health during this time, it is crucial to prioritize regular skin checks. In fact, winter is an ideal time for a skin check, as our skin is less exposed and therefore less traumatised due to cover up.
In Australia, we do not have a formal skin cancer screening program, which emphasizes the importance of taking personal responsibility for our skin health and that of our families. By ensuring our skin checks are up to date, we can play a vital role in early detection and prevention of skin cancer. It is alarming to note that more than 2000 Australians lose their lives to melanoma each year, and 600 individuals die from squamous cell carcinoma of the skin.
At our clinic, we are committed to providing comprehensive skin checks, utilizing the latest technology and expertise of our experienced medical professionals. Our team consists of highly trained dermatologists and skin cancer specialists who will assess your skin thoroughly, identify any abnormalities, and provide appropriate treatment options if required.
We believe that prevention is key, and our clinic offers a range of educational resources and advice on sun protection, early detection, and lifestyle choices that can reduce the risk of skin cancer. We encourage you to visit QIMR Berghofer for additional information on skin cancer and its prevention.
Your skin health matters to us, and we strive to create a comfortable and caring environment for all our patients. Book your appointment at Australian Skin Cancer Clinics - Erindale today and take a proactive step towards safeguarding your skin against the dangers of skin cancer.

Reviews
"I booked in for a skin cancer check - got in almost immediately. Dr Fred was very thorough and personable and explained the process really well and what things were that a 65 year old has.... Sun spots skin tags etc.... A very good experience and I felt very comfortable with the whole deal there."
"thorough, efficient, and courteous."
"Unfortunately I cannot recommend this practice based on my unpleasant experiences on the phone following my appointment. At my appointment I was told I had a 50-50 potential BCC on my nose and Dr Vandenbergh said it would require a 'simple 4mm punch cut', so I made another appointment to have it removed. However I rang a couple of days later requesting to speak to the doctor again to get a bit more information about the procedure, being in the middle of my face I am worried about aesthetics, which were not discussed at my initial appointment. The receptionist rang me back saying the doctor was happy to give me a referral a plastic surgeon. As I was not after a referral I requested again if the doctor could please call me to discuss the procedure. When the doctor called me back the following day, he didn't want to hear my question just reiterated the incorrect advice he was provided by the receptionist, and raised his voice when I tried to clarify my query. I apologised about any confusion and explained I needed some reassurance about how would it end up looking afterwards and whether it would change how my nose looked. The doctor told me he could not perform the procedure as his insurance would not cover him. I asked about my options and was referred to another doctor at the clinic for a follow up appointment for a 2mm biopsy instead. After all this, I felt upset by the tense phone experiences, the changing course of advice and the lack of due care. I cancelled my follow up appointment and will go elsewhere in the future for the follow up."
"The clinic staff are excellent, the online booking is easy, the doctor runs on time and is open and friendly."
