Certificate of Skin Cancer Medicine and Surgery 2026

Presented by: Dr Kasia Mackenzie, Mr Richard Martin, Dr Chris Boberg and Dr Andrew MacGill.

This is our hands-on practical management course that encompasses both surgical and medical management of skin cancer. Our tutors are all clinicians who work full time in the field of Skin Cancer with decades of combined surgical and medical expertise. We are excited to share our knowledge with all our delegates and improve their confidence.
 

Highlights from this course:

• Tailored teaching - This course has been designed to cater for absolute beginners and seasoned practitioners. Those of you more experienced in cutaneous surgery will be grouped with similarly experienced practitioners and provided with the appropriate tutorage. For those more experienced you can learn whatever cutaneous surgical procedure you want. There is plenty of time for all to practise and get multiple differing tutors' perspectives and advice.
• Focussed and practical - For those new to cutaneous surgery, you will have plenty of time to decipher the simple suture, how to slide a knot, do a punch biopsy or even a shave excision. Having said that, the simple ellipse forms the backbone of office-based procedures and it is essential this is done well and we ensure all attending can do this to a high standard. The more experienced practitioners normally progress through this step quickly. We then quickly identify who needs what support.
• Complementary surgical kit - This includes artificial skin, suturing material and tools to hone the skills learnt on the day to take into everyday practice. We understand there is no substitute for repetition and practice.
• Direct tuition - This course is taught by leading surgeons and GP Skin Cancer Specialists. We keep the groups small so that our tutors can engage with everyone individually. Our tutors are all approachable and enthusiastic and will ensure you are comfortable asking those 'silly questions' we all have from time to time.
