Private melanoma removal

North east based or will travel abroad to Italy, where my partner is from if I can get a quick and affordable mm removal. 

I've heard it is pointless to go privately as the waiting list is just as long, unless anyone knows any differently please? This thing is changing daily and I'm sure it will be too late by the time the NHS get round to doing anything. 2ww yet not a word, nor have I even been seen. I need this off withing the next week or 2..

Any recommendations please?

  • I've just joined the forum. My father has been diagnosed with a skin cancer and the hospital say the wait list is 12-18 months. I'm looking for private treatment. the first private place I contacted said they could treat within 6 months. Good luck with your search for treatment. If I find somewhere will less of a wait list, I'll let you know.

  • In case anyone is looking for private treatment, a private healthcare provider who have a national network offered me a consultation for £200 within a week and said removal of a 15mm skin cancer might cost £1500 with a 6 week waiting list. This sounds more hopeful than waiting at least of a year for NHS treatment. We shall see...
