From personal experiences, I think that your first port of call should be a dermatologist. Depending on what they decide, they will be able to recommend a plastic surgeon to you. My assessment and subsequent surgery was in the UK so I can't recommend anyone here.

We also go to Dr Yiannis Neophytou who took a biopsy and subsequently removed a growth from my OH's cheek. The scar has completely faded. Highly recommended.

Absolutely agree. I had two suspicious blemishes biopsied and removed earlier this year with excellent results. I believe he is now with GESY. Due for check uo at end of the year. A lovely man and staff. Very informative. x

I think as of yet Dermatologist's are not on the Gesy register.

A couple of weeks ago, My wife needed to see one, and was told they had not been added to the Gesy list yet, they would be added next year, so she went private, I will get her to ask our GP again, thanks

I go to the General hospital dermatologist and have done for a while She is GESY. You still need a referral though. I also see a cardiologist at a different hospital who still works privately but is now on GESY.
