Dr Ben’s skin cancer services are open to everyone, not just Devonport Health Centre patients—anyone can book an appointment.

Why Check?

New Zealand has some of the highest skin cancer rates and skin cancer-related deaths in the world. Every year, around 80,000 Kiwis are diagnosed with skin cancer.

Thankfully, early detection makes treatment more effective. Melanoma, for instance, has an 85% cure rate when found early.

Everyone should get to know their skin by doing regular self-checks every three months. Staying familiar with your skin means you’re more likely to notice suspicious lumps or spots as soon as they appear—when Dr Ben can effectively treat them.
