Skin Cancer Clinic
Queensland has the highest rate of skin cancer in the world, which is why it is imperative to visit a skin cancer clinic regularly to help protect your health. Two in three Australians will develop skin cancer in their life. The good news is it can be prevented. Most skin cancers can be treated if they are detected early.
It is recommended that you have a professional skin check every 12 months.
