Hello Kellie1988 and thanks for your post,

I am sorry to hear about your partner.

It is difficult to be too specific on when your partner will have surgery as a lot will be depend on capacity of staff and waiting

lists. Every hospital is slightly different.

There are national cancer waiting times that hospitals do their best to follow.

It is still early days that your partner has been diagnosed. I would wait for a for a few days and then encourage your partner to ring the dermatology secretary to see if they can get an idea on timings.

I do hope that you hear more soon.

Do give the nurses a ring on the helpline if you want to talk things through. the number to ring is freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open Monday to Friday 9 am to 5 pm.

All the best,

Catherine
