What do you need to know when attending a Minor Surgery Clinic?

The doctor will assess and diagnose the problem and determine suitability for possible procedures. They will then explain your options to you, including the technique used, and any pros and cons to each option. Treatment may take place during the same appointment, but occasionally another appointment may need to be scheduled to carry out the procedure.

During treatment several techniques may be used such as:

Shave or curettage
Excision and closure of a skin lesion
Cryotherapy
Cautery
Nail removal

You may wish to bring a friend along, especially if you are driving as a local anaesthetic may be administered and depending on the location of your lesion you may find it difficult to get about following the appointment.

Where necessary, you may need to return for stitch removal in the weeks following the procedure, our doctors will advise you on this.

I wanted to let Valerie Peddie know that we are q weeks pregnant today and our scan shows the baby is well and developing as expected. Her kindness, patience and general support as I was going through the IVF process in London but attending your clinic in Aberdeen for scans was invaluable to me. Please thank her so much on my behalf.

I got a same-day appointment with Dr Dele-salawu on 14th October. She was very knowledgeable and attentive, she allowed me to tell her the details of my concerns and arranged appropriately for urgent tests. I was very pleased with the whole experience.
