At Kelowna Skin Cancer Clinic we support early detection and treatment of high-risk skin cancers.
We provide clear, evidence-based information and patient-centred care in a welcoming environment.
OUR APPROACH
Technology
Focused on high-risk skin cancers, our Western Canada-based clinic uses skin cancer screening tools and technology, emphasizing the importance of early detection.
- Dermoscopy
- Skin Screenings
We use a tool called a dermatoscope that features high-quality magnifying lenses (x10) to closely examine the skin’s surface. This helps us identify unusual changes at an earlier stage and guide next steps in your care.
This visual exam of the skin checks for lesions that look suspicious. Our physicians focus on assessing these concerns and providing clear next steps in your care.
WE’RE HERE TO HELP
Our Treatment Options
If a biopsy confirms skin cancer, there are a variety of medical and surgical procedures available based on your needs.
These may include: Cryotherapy, Topical, Surgery, Systemic Chemotherapy or Immunotherapy, and Curettage & Electrodesiccation.
