Initial Consultation - First Assessment
Minor Surgery
Our highly skilled and experienced GP(s) regularly perform minor surgical lists in NHS GP practice and use the very latest techniques. Dr Chris Olukanni has a surgical background, so you can feel confident you are in good hands. This level of leadership enables The Rochester Private Clinic to offer an extensive range of treatments tailored and personalised to the needs of individuals in a fully equipped, dedicated and bespoke minor surgery suite designed to provide the most comfortable and best environment for sterile and semi-sterile techniques.
Prior to any agreed procedure, you will have a thorough consultation, explaining the likely diagnosis of your lesion, a full explanation of the procedure (with benefits and risks discussed), and aftercare advice.
A minor surgery first assessment is essential for the specialist GP to conduct a physical examination of the area needing excised. This will allow the doctor to diagnose the exact issue and ensure it is appropriate for excision.
It is often possible to book in as early the following week for surgery.
Please also complete the online medical & COVID questionnaires e-mailed to you at time of booking.
