Now in their tenth year of operation, Shepparton Skin Clinic is a well-known team of General Practitioners with dedicated training and expertise in skin cancer and dermatology, catering for everyone in the Goulburn Valley and surrounds.

The clinic would like to welcome Dr Wod Al Khateeb and Dr Kylie Siauw, who are both GPs specialising in skin cancer. Both with many years of experience they join our existing 4 doctors to provide a complete service from consultation to treatment and surgery if required. They also offer mole mapping.

Shepparton Skin Clinic practice manager, Belinda Hook said, “We’re a friendly team of both male and female doctors who are all passionate about skin health and care.

“We try to educate our clients on skin and sun care as well. With skin cancer being five times more common than all other cancers, it’s so important to keep an eye on your skin and if you do notice a change, then get it checked right away. Early detection can be the difference between a small excision and a major surgery.”

Shepparton Skin Clinic can also help with everything from acne, pigmentation, rosacea/redness, broken capillaries, scarring, and unwanted hair.

Shepparton Skin Clinic is located at 43-45 Benalla Road, Shepparton. To book an appointment, visit Shepparton Skin Clinic’s website at www.sheppartonskinclinic.com.au or call 5822 2393. Shepparton Skin Clinic also accepts referrals from your GP.
