*A spot check is skin cancer examination. This can be for 1 spot or several. This does not involve any prescriptions or treatments. If you require a procedure after an examination one can be scheduled for you. NOTE: Insurers normally cover the cost(s) for the examination & procedure – some insurers do not cover checks if a procedure is not needed - it is recommended that you check your policy.

Recently. I came across Dr Paul while attending Professional Certificate course in skin cancer at the University of Queensland. I was very impressed with his teachings from which we all benefited. His presentations were interesting, easy to understand and up to date… I have spoken to many of the attending doctors and found them to be full of praise and grateful to Dr Paul. I have put in practice some of the skin flaps he taught with great success.
