Minor Surgery

We also provide minor surgical procedures to remove cysts, moles and skin tags for health reasons. The procedure will be perfomed by our highly experienced GP Darran Hill and AP Shelly, who will walk you through the entire process.

The surgery will be done under local anaesthetic which will numb the area and stop you from feeling pain.
