1 in 3 of us will get cancer in our lifetime. It could be you; it could be someone you love.

Daffodil Day is more than just a fundraiser. It’s a symbol of hope, resilience, and support for every New Zealander affected by cancer, and we’re proud to stand behind this cause.

Our work in skin cancer prevention is driven by the same values Daffodil Day represents: early detection and compassionate care. That’s why you’ll find a collection box at our clinic reception.

Small acts of generosity can lead to big change, and your support will help fund free transport to treatment, nursing and psychology services, and vital cancer research. Together, we can make a meaningful difference!

❄️ Winter Skin Reminder ❄️ Bundled up in layers? Your skin might be hidden, but it still needs care. Cold air, indoor heating, and low humidity can quietly dehydrate your skin, even when it’s covered.

💧 Stay hydrated inside and out: drink plenty of water, moisturise daily, and don’t skip your skin check. Winter’s actually the ideal time to spot changes early and keep your skin healthy.

✨ Need a little help choosing the right products? Check out our range of dermatologist-recommended skincare available in clinic - handpicked to support your skin through the colder months.

📅 Book your skin check and be sure to ask us about our skincare range next time you’re in.

🫶 Last week we said thank you and farewell to Dr Geoff Tvrdeich as he begins a well-earned retirement. As a founding clinician of the Carefirst Group and Skin Clinic Taranaki, Geoff has been a guiding presence for nearly 30 years. He led with quiet strength and unwavering commitment, shaping the clinics that continue to serve generations of patients today.

🫶 His legacy is defined by clinical excellence, deep compassion, and a passionate advocacy for skin cancer prevention and early treatment. His impact touches both the lives of his patients and the colleagues he supported along the way.

❤️ While we say farewell to Geoff, the journey continues.

Our team of five experienced skin doctors proudly carry forward his dedication, offering:

👉 Comprehensive skin cancer screening, diagnosis & surgery
👉 Specialist non-invasive varicose vein treatments, led by vascular consultant Mr Steve Benson and sonographer Daryl Queenin
👉 Cosmetic & regenerative medicine, with the latest in doctor-led aesthetic and medical treatments.

🫶 We thank Geoff for his immense contributions – we're honoured to continue serving our community with the same dedication he exemplified. Join us in farewelling Geoff by leaving a message in the comments below.

Pregnancy is a wild ride, and sometimes it leaves a few souvenirs, like varicose veins.
Increased blood flow, hormonal changes, and the pressure of a growing uterus can all contribute to visible, sometimes uncomfortable or painful veins in your legs.

While many women find they fade after giving birth, varicose veins don’t always disappear on their own. If they’re sticking around (or causing discomfort), you’ve got options.

💙 At Vein Specialists at Skin Clinic Taranaki, we offer personalised treatment plans for non-invasive varicose vein treatments. Book your FREE initial assessment now - no referral needed.

Your legs will thank you.

Got heavy, itchy, swollen or aching legs? Even though you might not be able to see anything, you could be experiencing the early signs of varicose veins. Symptoms can include:

💥 Heavy or tired legs
💥 Night cramps
💥 Swelling or itchiness around the ankles
💥 Aching that gets worse after standing

Don’t ignore what your body is telling you. Vein Specialists at Skin Clinic Taranaki use gold-standard ultrasound technology to detect varicose veins, even the ones that aren’t visible yet. With safe, effective, and minimally invasive treatments, we’ll help you feel confident and comfortable again.
