A few months ago I returned to Dr. Sharad Paul and his Skin Surgery Clinic.
To have a quote for more moles removal. I was told over the phone that prices had increased even for a returning customer who has spent rather a lot of money in the past. I booked an appointment and came in, I was quoted over $440 for one mole of which I wanted two removed and $90 each for two other moles and was told each mole would take under 10 minutes. Now if this was a cancer situation who has over $900 on hand? I'm not surprised New Zealand has a high melanoma rate, this is day light robbery. I agreed on 3 moles, I booked in to come back not having been told about a cost to this first appointment. The following week I had to cancel the appointment for money concerns, I talked to an horrible lady on the phone who made me feel quite ashamed of cancelling, I still wasn't told about the money I owe. A few days later I called to rebook to have to two cheaper moles removed and was over quoted what I was in my first appointment, the same catty lady was quick to correct me and yet again made me feel like an idiot, I hung up without rebooking and was still not told that I owed money. A week later I received a letter saying I owed $40. $40 for my first 4 minute appointment. What an absolute joke! I have since gone somewhere a lot cheaper with much nicer staff. Your establishment is ridiculous and is taking advantage of a much needed service, shame on you! I suggest you all to shop around and avoid Dr. Sharad Paul and his Skin Surgery Clinic at all cost. read more
