YOUR LOCAL SKIN CANCER CLINIC
Skin cancer clinic near Hawthorn East
From Hawthorn East, SkinGP Glen Iris is a short drive down Tooronga Road to Malvern Road, around 5 to 10 minutes.
Close enough that keeping on top of your skin becomes easy: a yearly check, or a quick appointment the week you notice something new.
Everyday Hawthorn East
A walk to Auburn Village for coffee, the Saturday shop at Tooronga Village, a run along Gardiners Creek.
These small stretches outdoors make up most of the sun our skin sees over a lifetime, and quick errands rarely come with a hat. Yearly checks catch the damage that everyday sun can cause.

When a spot changes, close matters
It’s easy to put off getting a spot checked when it feels like a hassle. When the clinic is minutes away, it isn’t. If you notice a mole that’s new, growing, changing colour, bleeding or itching, book an urgent lesion review. It takes 5 to 10 minutes, and if your doctor recommends a biopsy, it can often be scheduled in quickly.
For the quickest appointment, call (03) 9969 5000.
Getting here
By car: south along Tooronga Road to Malvern Road, then to 1601 Malvern Road, Glen Iris. On-site parking.
Public transport: the nearest train station is Gardiner, on the Glen Waverley line, about a 5-minute walk from the clinic. The route 72 tram (Melbourne University to Camberwell) stops directly outside of the clinic.
Skin cancer doctors, not a general clinic
SkinGP sees skin cancer patients only. Our doctors work only in skin cancer medicine, and most are Accredited Skin Cancer Doctors, with advanced training and formal assessment through the Skin Cancer College of Australasia. You don’t need a dermatologist or a referral for a skin check; if a specialist is ever needed, we’ll refer you with your results and images.
