Costs for going private - skin cancer removal

Hi all

My dad has a localised basal-cell tumour (a type of skin cancer) on his right temple on his head. It will take about 3 months before the NHS can see him to remove it.

Does anyone know how much this kind of surgery would cost in London if he goes private please?

Thanks very much

Elliot

    Hi please could you inbox me the information of the clinic I have a scc which is close to my eye and is growing rapidly. NHS waiting is at least 2 months. Probably longer due to the imminent 8day strike. Many thanks

    Hey Carrie, 

    I noticed you were hoping to hear back from CDE307.

    They haven't actually been on the forum in quite some time, and unfortunately the last time this discussion was active was about 8 months ago, so you may not get a reply.

    I really hope that won't be the case, but if no-one replies to you here you could try reaching out to others on more recent discussions you find about this topic or starting your own discussion.

    For further information and advice about your situation, our cancer nurses are available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.

    Kind regards,
