Melanomas, in NZ, kill as many people a year as cars do

Marianne Davidson-Beker from Rodney Surgical Centre

Melanomas can occur anywhere on your skin. Sun exposure will increase your risk of developing a melanoma but they can also occur in places the sun never shines.

Melanomas can occur anywhere on your skin. Sun exposure will increase your risk of developing a melanoma but they can also occur in places the sun never shines.

To reduce your risk of all forms of skin cancer minimize your sun exposure. But like all things in life moderation is key. Enjoy the outdoors and sunshine, but cover up and protect yourself as best you can. In addition, maybe once a year get your skin checked.

Also it is wise to have a good look at yourself once a month with the help of the bathroom mirror. You’ll be surprised how good you are at seeing a new or different “mole”. In my experience most melanomas are recognizable by patients before they are lethal.

Come and get yourself checked by our skin specialist - Andrew MacGill

It's such a lovely sight to see our infant classes in action and both little ones and caregivers having a great time together in the water. We run infant classes at all seven of our locations from 3 months to 3 years of age and each child has an adult in the water with them. Water activity is proven to help with cognitive and motor skills development and it’s also a great way to build the bond between child and caregiver.
If you are keen to come along with your little ones to lessons, either give us a call on 09 666 0240 or pop in to visit us at 5 Rawiri Place, Hobsonville - we'd love to meet you!
