Last Sep/Oct I went to the doctor about having a suspicious flat mole removed from my thigh and I was referred to the hospital/dermatologist quite quickly. The dermatologist looked at it and said it would be best for it to come off as it was a dysplastic mole. 

I had the surgery at the hopsital in November, but when I arrived I was seen by three nurses, one of which said they were a Clinical Nurse Specialist. I was kind of taken aback, as my 2 previous mole removals were done by a dermatologist. However, I didn't know what to do so I just went ahead with it. 

The mole was removed using an elliptical excision and I'm still waiting on results, but I'm left with a really horrible scar. When I looked at it 48 hrs after the surgery I noticed that there was a large divot/depression in my skin (about 5mm deep). It's like the mole was removed along with extra tissue and fat. The area is hard and flat. I am now six weeks post op and while the scar is healing, the divot/depression is still very much there and just as deep. This, on top of the worry of waiting for the results (apparently taking 12 weeks+) and the idea that I may have an even wider excision necessary, is making me feel very depressed. 

I am at the point where I don't know where to turn for advice. I know that having a bad scar/divot in my leg is minor if the biopsy results show that I have melanoma, but I can't help feeling upset with how my thigh now looks. 

My question is, is it normal to have a Nurse Specialist remove the mole without a dr/dermatologist present? And if so, is it normal for there to be a deep divot left in the skin after a ellpitical excision biopsy? I can't find hardly anything on the internet bout this. I don't know whether I'm right in considering complaining to the hopsital about this or not. Any advice is very much appreciated!
