Moles

One of my patients emailed me a little poem about moles this week.

Remember though-, as she refers to, "this medical mole", the NHS pays for problem mole removal, not cosmetic work.

If it's cosmetic work you are after, see a Plastic Surgeon!

Dr Watkins pet speciality is in Mole removal

He’ll soon get his scalpel out if you give your approval

You don’t have to worry because he won’t be pathetic

By expecting you to have it done without an anaesthetic

He’ll get rid of that thing that’s plagued you for years

That thing that looks ugly and has caused a few tears

That horrible Mole that sticks through your vest

The one that’s so big as it sits on your chest

You may have a little one that makes you feel sad

Best get it sorted though before it goes bad

Moles are funny things...some are harmful...some are not

Always best to check it out...see what sort you’ve got

The trouble with moles you can’t remedy with a pill

You’ll be happier when it’s gone...honestly you will

It’s not like yours will disappear down a hole

It’s got to be dealt with...this medical mole

Trust Dr Watkins for he’ll cause you no pain

And just think of the benefit of not seeing it again!
