Complete Mole Checks and Same-Day Skin Surgery in Christchurch: Why 1 Health is Your Top Choice


Are you worried about a changing mole or spot on your skin? Early detection is key, and getting a thorough mole check is the first step. At 1 Health in Christchurch, we use advanced dermoscopy for detailed mole checks—and offer immediate treatment options, all in a single visit.


Advanced Dermoscopy Mole Checks—No Referral Needed

At 1 Health, your skin is checked using a dermatoscope, a device that allows us to see early changes invisible to the naked eye. Every mole check is performed by Dr Bernard Teo, a GP with postgraduate qualifications in dermatology and skin cancer surgery. This advanced training ensures high accuracy in identifying suspicious lesions and skin cancers—giving you peace of mind.


Why 1 Health Stands Out: Treatment at the Same Appointment

Unlike many clinics that only screen for skin cancer, 1 Health is a true “one-stop shop” for mole checks and treatment. If we find a lesion that needs attention, Dr Teo can often proceed with treatment immediately. Services available during your visit include:

  • Skin excisions: Removal of suspicious moles or skin cancers
  • Skin flaps and grafts: Advanced surgical techniques for complex cases, right here in our clinic
  • Biopsies and cryotherapy: Fast assessment and management for a range of lesions


Experience You Can Trust

Dr Bernard Teo is not just a GP—he’s a doctor with extra training in detecting and treating skin cancer. He regularly receives referrals from other Christchurch clinicians who trust his expertise for both diagnosis and surgical management, including flaps and grafts. At 1 Health, you get:

  • Expertise in both melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancers
  • Thorough skin checks with dermoscopy
  • Clear explanations of results and next steps
  • Prompt, same-day minor surgery (where indicated)
  • Caring follow-up tailored to your skin risk


One-Stop Comprehensive Skin Cancer Care

No need for multiple appointments or extra referrals. At 1 Health, our complete service care means you get everything from dermoscopy assessment to surgical treatment, conveniently located for Christchurch and surrounding suburbs.

Book your comprehensive mole check appointment today with 1 Health and get the peace of mind you deserve—experienced, thorough, and ready to treat on the spot.
