🎅🌲 CHRISTMAS CLOSURE NOTICE 🌲🎅

☀️💛 Just a reminder to all our wonderful patients – with summer just around the corner, now’s the time to be thinking about sun safety and getting those skin checks done. Australia has one of the highest rates of skin cancer in the world, but the good news is that it’s largely preventable if caught early.

This week is all about taking action. So, if you’ve noticed any changes to your skin or can’t remember the last time you had a skin check, it might be time to book in and see your GP. A quick check could make all the difference.

And remember, don’t forget the basics: slip on a shirt, slop on some sunscreen, slap on a hat, seek shade, and slide on sunglasses. Let’s stay sun smart and look after our skin this summer ☀
