Lee Colette, 09 Sep 2020
The bad attitude and poor level of service by one of the nurses , Sharon is a complete turnoff. Despite the diagnosis from Dr Khoo which is not aesthetic related she refused to

Find a different clinic. Emailed ahead of my appointment to check my mole checkup would be covered by insurance. They said 'it depends on the diagnosis' but surely it's the procedure you're paying fo

I’ve been a patient of Mr Khoo for around 20 years since I’ve first visited him during my army days. Saw his transition from Changi General Hospital to his own specialist clinic now in Naaman skin

I'm happy for those who got the right treatment by Dr. Khoo. Our experience was radically different. I brought my 6 yo son who got a growing, round, red legion on his face and GPs couldn't figure out.

Ya. Have the same feeling, one of the receptionists doesn't look happy to serve customer, no greeting, no smile. Dr. Khoo is good, but hope his staff can be more happy when serve the customer.
Chee Yin Liew, 15 Jan 2018
Receptionists don't look like they are happy working here. Very little eye contact with patients. No smiles.
Javier Perez, 11 Feb 2016
The clinic stuff is highly unprofessional and unreliable. I came with a referral letter from GP and my insurance card and passed it to the staff. I consulted my insurance agent earlier about the insur

Risk-Free What you need to know about Skin Biopsy in Central
A skin biopsy is a procedure in which cells or skin samples are removed from the surface of the body to be tested. The sample taken from a skin biopsy is sent to a laboratory and examined by a pathologist under a microscope. By looking at the sample, the pathologist can diagnose or rule out skin cancer. In some cases, it can also be used to remove skin lesions.
A skin biopsy is needed to diagnose or to help treat skin conditions and diseases, including skin infection, warts, actinic keratosis, skin tags, suspicious moles or other growths, blistering skin disorders (such as bullous pemphigoid), inflammatory skin conditions (such dermatitis and psoriasis), and skin cancers (including melanoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and basal cell carcinoma).
What's the Recovery Time?
In general, you should rest as much as possible for the remainder of the day and go back to your normal activities the day after. However, you need to take it easy and avoid vigorous activities for a few days to avoid complications. How long it takes your biopsy site to heal depends upon the depth and size of the biopsy, which may take about 2 to 3 weeks.
What's the Success Rate?
A skin biopsy is a safe and accurate method to diagnose skin conditions and diseases. The accuracy of a shave biopsy is 97%, while a punch biopsy is shown to be 85% accurate. The result of a skin biopsy is highly dependent on the quality of the biopsy submitted. It is possible to miss the diagnosis of a skin tumour.Â
The result of your skin biopsy will include a diagnosis and a description of the skin condition. If the sample is found to be cancerous, the description will include information about how quickly the cancer cells are dividing, the thickness and margins of the tumour, the presence of tiny tumours near the main tumour, as well as invasion of the tumour into a nerve, blood vessel, or lymph vessel.Â
While a skin biopsy is a generally safe procedure, complications can still occur. These include bleeding, bruising, infection, scarring, and allergic reaction to the anaesthesia.
