I am going to see Plastic surgeon for Squamous Cell Carcinoma on top of nose.  I was referred to dermatology on 2 week referral but had Ai analytics and had to wait a further three weeks to see a dermatologist who said I needed to see Plastic Surgery for removal and skin flap.  I am having consultation on Saturday and terrified as it's grown so quickly

  • Hi  

    I'm sorry to read that you are terrified about how quickly your squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) has grown and I hope that the consultant at today's appointment will be able to reassure you that most SCCs can be completely removed.

    I haven't had SCC but I have been treated for melanoma and basal cell carcinoma in the past so know how worrying the waiting can be.

    Do pop back after your appointment to let us know how you got on.
