Review Process
Your information will be reviewed by Dr Johnstone or one of our other highly qualified specialists by the end of the next working day and you will be advised of the recommended course of action:
- In person attendance and clinical assessment by Dr Johnstone (£30)
- As appropriate booking of a removal/treatment appointment or referral
- Referral to a private specialist such as a Dermatologist, Plastic Surgeon or other appropriate consultant
- Optionally referral to your NHS GP for clinical issues treated by the NHS

Outpatient Procedure
All our minor outpatient procedures take place in our clinical treatment rooms at Candover Clinic. These procedures are performed under local anaesthetic. The area around the mole or skin tag is made numb with an injection. The mole or skin tag can be shaved or cut out and a small dressing is applied to the affected area. If necessary you may require a few stitches.
