Advice

Hi,

My GP has referred me to a skin photo triage clinic due to several changes and inflammation to one of my freckles. I was just wondering if anyone could shed some light on the waiting time for these appointments as I am really quite worried about it.

Thanks

  • Hi LM21 and welcome to the forum.

    It may depend on the type of referral that has been made. If it's an urgent referral and you're based in England then it's usually within 2 weeks, but it may be a bit longer if you're in other parts of the U.K. 

    There are members that have been in similar situations so hopefully they will pick up on your post and share their knowledge and experiences with you soon.

    If you'd like to have a quick chat with someone about this then do give our cancer nurses a call next week. They'll be back in the office from Tuesday onwards and will be available between 9a.m - 5p.m.

    Wishing you all the best for your appointment when the time comes LM21.

    Kind regards,
