We’re delighted to announce that all golfers affiliated with Auckland Golf are now eligible for a 22% discount on full-body Molechecks.
Golfers spend a lot of time out in the sun – even if the golf is not up to par, the health benefits of spending time in the outdoors is well documented and helps us feel good. But too much time in the Kiwi sun can be a killer – more New Zealanders die from melanoma than die on our roads. The good news is that most melanomas can be successfully treated if detected early.
The doctors at Molecheck use the latest dermoscopy techniques to detect melanoma and other skin cancers at the earliest possible stage. They provide on-the-spot diagnosis – and in some cases on-the-spot treatment. All patients leave the consultation with a clear assessment of any lesions of concern, an understanding of personal skin cancer risk and a plan for any treatment and follow-up that may be required.
Our new partnership means all golfers who are members of a golf club affiliated with Auckland Golf can now receive a 22% discount for a full mole check examination. The examination includes a full-body assessment and, if required, treatment of any precancerous lesions with cryotherapy. If clients require a biopsy or lesion removal, this can sometimes be accommodated at the time or arranged for another day at the client’s convenience. Please note that biopsies and lesion removals are charged separately.
Cameron Fyffe, a semi-retired golfer who follows all sports – even the Warriors (it’s our year, he says) – has already benefited from the discount.
“I have fair skin, burn easily, and I’m bald, so I’m an obvious target for moles,” he says.
Although he wears a hat and sunscreen, even in winter, a regular Molecheck is an invaluable step further.
“I gratefully accept the discount available because of the Auckland Golf partnership, and I encourage all golfers to get annually checked out! It could save your life.”
To receive the discount all you need to do is let the Molecheck reception team know at the time of your booking that you are a member of one of the 20 golf clubs affiliated with Auckland Golf and take along proof of this at the time of your appointment. Members who have health insurance may also have some or all of the cost of the GP consultation and treatment covered.
