Follow up appointment mole biopsy

So I had a letter through for a follow up appointment after mole removal for biopsy, but it's for the 9th of June. It just seems an awful long wait for them to tell me a result (I'm assuming it's fine with how long they're leaving it). Has anyone rang and just asked for their results over the phone? I will drive myself insane waiting that long, thank you!

  • Hello bethanyann

    I'm sorry to hear that you're waiting on a biopsy result at the moment. It's certainly quite a while to be waiting for results if your appointment isn't until June and I can understand that you don't want to wait that long. 

    You could give the team a call and ask if you can be added to a cancellation list or if it's possible to have a telephone appointment. It's unlikely that you will be able to ring and that someone will be available to give you your results at that time but there's certainly nothing to be lost by asking if it's possible to arrange an appointment sooner. 

    I hope that you have some reassuring news soon. 

    Best wishes,
