I went to STAR Skin Surgery recently for a mole removal and was a little bit nervous. I needn't have been as the surgeon Samantha was incredibly welcoming, chatty and friendly but also very professional and helpful. Sam clearly explained the process and the options and kept me in the know the entire time which helped to put me at ease. The job was very well done and the efficient and the recovery steps were clearly outlined and easy. Heavily recommend.

Dear Miss Anthony,
Thank you for seeing me yesterday and for treating the lesions so promptly and carefully. I hardly felt the cryogenic application and any slight discomfort had disappeared within a couple of hours.

Miss Samantha Anthony was excellent. Would highly recommend. Throughly explained options and procedure beforehand. Whilst carrying out the procedure she continually explained what she was doing and gave reassurance.

In the last month I’ve had a couple of procedures with Miss Anthony. I was highly impressed with her explanation of what she was going to do including diagrams. During the surgery she warned me and reassured me about what was about to happen.
However it was after the appointments that she went from being excellent to superb. Her after the event care was exceptional. She swiftly followed up queries about post operative care and gave practical and caring advice. I consider myself fortunate to have had her as my surgeon. Cannot recommend more highly.

Dear Dr. Anthony,
Thank you for sending the information.
It was lovely to see you again as well. Ten years have passed so quickly!
I appreciate the time you took to explain what you were doing and that you treated all the spots that were worrying me. The treated areas are calm now and hopefully will heal quickly.
I will let you know if I need further treatment on my growths!
In the meantime, I wish you well and thank you once again.
Yours sincerely,

Dear Samantha,
You may remember that I came to your clinic on the 12th September to have a few skin lesions removed.
I just wanted to let you know how successful it all was. I had no pain at all, and once the scabs fell off there was hardly any marks - just a few were pinkish but now negligible. I really am so happy with the results.
I am attaching a photograph so you can see how great my procedure was - this was taken about two weeks ago.
Best wishes to you, and many thanks

Hello Samantha,
Thank you very much for your email and clinic letter. That’s great news that all moles were harmless! You would not know that two of the lesions removed ever existed. The larger mole on my face has left a slight indent (as you said was a possibility) but it is still very early days and I am happier with the indent than the mole itself. I am very happy with the results and will happily provide feedback via the link.
With kind regards and many thanks from both of us,

I had a large skin tag removed a few weeks ago.
Dr Anthony stitched it beautifully and I have had no issues at all with the healing process.
Although the procedure itself didn’t take long, Dr Anthony spent the time reviewing and explaining everything, understanding my concerns and I felt completely comfortable and at ease under her care. An added bonus was the lack of pain during the procedure and afterwards!
I have just received the all clear from the result in an email with a clear explanation and follow up of care.
A huge thank you to Dr Anthony and team- most grateful. I can’t recommend her highly enough.

Hi Samantha
I have been meaning to email and not quite found the time. I wanted to say how very grateful I am for your kindness last week, and Sue's too. It is not often you spend more than two hours having your head prodded and poked and come out feeling that you have been lucky to have been treated so well. It means a lot to be so well looked after and know what an excellent job has been done as well. I was showing my head to my folks yesterday so they could check it for me and they were very impressed with your handy work.
So a big thank you to you both for all your kindness and wishes for a lovely weekend.

Hoping you were able to enjoy halloween last night... we certainly did!

Keep up doing all your amazing work and making people feel so at ease.

10.11.24 JR 5 Star Google review
Fabulous experience with Miss Samantha Anthony and her wonderful team. I had procrastinated about having this procedure done for far too many years and I can honestly say that I really wish I'd have done it much sooner. It's only just been over a month and the deep scar is already beginning to look more like a scratch and a huge improvement on what was there previously! Think it's probably obvious now, but to anyone in any doubt I would say: just go ahead and do it. I was made to feel so relaxed too. Can't thank them enough.

Morning Dr. Sam, Hope you are all well. Thank you for your reply. My wound is healing well. The dark scab fall off for two days before and leaving a light redness scar. And I apply daily facial cream on it to keep moisture. I am happy that the histology result is benign. And you are so kind to provide the leaflet.

Thank you for getting in touch to ask me about my facial scar following surgery. I must say, your after-care has been amazing and not something I take for granted.
The wound has healed well and apart from a slightly raised area where you had to use a slightly different approach to the stitching (!), the scar is hardly noticeable. I daresay that in time, this will also disappear.
I hope you and your family are all well and I send you my sincere thanks for your friendly and professional care.

Miss Samantha Anthony was excellent. Would highly recommend. Throughly explained options and procedure beforehand. Whilst carrying out the procedure she continually explained what she was doing and gave reassurance.

In the last month I’ve had a couple of procedures with Miss Anthony. I was highly impressed with her explanation of what she was going to do including diagrams. During the surgery she warned me and reassured me about what was about to happen.
However it was after the appointments that she went from being excellent to superb. Her after the event care was exceptional. She swiftly followed up queries about post operative care and gave practical and caring advice. I consider myself fortunate to have had her as my surgeon. Cannot recommend more highly.

Dear Dr. Anthony,
Thank you for sending the information.
It was lovely to see you again as well. Ten years have passed so quickly!
I appreciate the time you took to explain what you were doing and that you treated all the spots that were worrying me. The treated areas are calm now and hopefully will heal quickly.
I will let you know if I need further treatment on my growths!
In the meantime, I wish you well and thank you once again.
Yours sincerely,

You really were so lovely and thanks to both of you for making it non-stressful.

Have a lovely weekend

Dear Samantha,
You may remember that I came to your clinic on the 12th September to have a few skin lesions removed.
I just wanted to let you know how successful it all was. I had no pain at all, and once the scabs fell off there was hardly any marks - just a few were pinkish but now negligible. I really am so happy with the results.
I am attaching a photograph so you can see how great my procedure was - this was taken about two weeks ago.
Best wishes to you, and many thanks

I went to STAR Skin Surgery recently for a mole removal and was a little bit nervous. I needn't have been as the surgeon Samantha was incredibly welcoming, chatty and friendly but also very professional and helpful. Sam clearly explained the process and the options and kept me in the know the entire time which helped to put me at ease. The job was very well done and the efficient and the recovery steps were clearly outlined and easy. Heavily recommend.

Hello Samantha,
Thank you very much for your email and clinic letter. That’s great news that all moles were harmless! You would not know that two of the lesions removed ever existed. The larger mole on my face has left a slight indent (as you said was a possibility) but it is still very early days and I am happier with the indent than the mole itself. I am very happy with the results and will happily provide feedback via the link.
With kind regards and many thanks from both of us,

Dear Sam,
Thank you for your email.
Good to know nothing untoward….
It is healing beautifully, so I expect won’t be long before all stitches dissolve.
The whole procedure from start to finish was brilliant, and I can’t thank you enough.

I had a large skin tag removed a few weeks ago.
Dr Anthony stitched it beautifully and I have had no issues at all with the healing process.
Although the procedure itself didn’t take long, Dr Anthony spent the time reviewing and explaining everything, understanding my concerns and I felt completely comfortable and at ease under her care. An added bonus was the lack of pain during the procedure and afterwards!
I have just received the all clear from the result in an email with a clear explanation and follow up of care.
A huge thank you to Dr Anthony and team- most grateful. I can’t recommend her highly enough.

Dear Sam,

I apologize for not replying sooner, but I wanted to thank you for everything. The wound is healing very nicely, and everything seems to be progressing well. I still have a few remaining stitches, but I understand that this is normal. Thank you again for your care.

Thank you for you email and it was good to meet you too, thank you for looking after me so well.
Both wounds are healing slowly, the scabs have come off several times and reforming, but the dips are getting flatter.
I guess it’ll take time like you said before.

Hi Samantha
I have been meaning to email and not quite found the time. I wanted to say how very grateful I am for your kindness last week, and Sue's too. It is not often you spend more than two hours having your head prodded and poked and come out feeling that you have been lucky to have been treated so well. It means a lot to be so well looked after and know what an excellent job has been done as well. I was showing my head to my folks yesterday so they could check it for me and they were very impressed with your handy work.
So a big thank you to you both for all your kindness and wishes for a lovely weekend.

Hi Samantha
Thank you so much for your email and the results...I feel so much better without all the lumps on my head and have been venturing out for a run which always makes me happy!!
It's funny how you get so used to these things and I wonder why it took me so long to get them sorted. But thank you for all you've done.
Hoping you were able to enjoy halloween last night... we certainly did!
Thanks for all your kindness... it's meant so much.
Keep up doing all your amazing work and making people feel so at ease.
Take care

Hi Sam,
The scab fell off this morning, and already with still a bit of redness I’m delighted!
I can’t wait until it’s 100% healed. It has made me very happy and pleased that I went ahead with it.

10.11.24 JR 5 Star Google review
Fabulous experience with Miss Samantha Anthony and her wonderful team. I had procrastinated about having this procedure done for far too many years and I can honestly say that I really wish I'd have done it much sooner. It's only just been over a month and the deep scar is already beginning to look more like a scratch and a huge improvement on what was there previously! Think it's probably obvious now, but to anyone in any doubt I would say: just go ahead and do it. I was made to feel so relaxed too. Can't thank them enough.

Thank you for seeing me yesterday and for treating the lesions so promptly and carefully. I hardly felt the cryogenic application and any slight discomfort had disappeared within a couple of hours.

Just a short note to say that J’s ‘wart’ above her eye has completely disappeared and my few have virtually completely healed as usual.
Thanks for seeing us and dealing with our minor issues so efficiently.

Morning Dr. Sam, Hope you are all well. Thank you for your reply. My wound is healing well. The dark scab fall off for two days before and leaving a light redness scar. And I apply daily facial cream on it to keep moisture. I am happy that the histology result is benign. And you are so kind to provide the leaflet. It let me know more about it and how to decrease recurrent. On the other hand, I received the letter which is sent to GP from Egress. I am appreciate that you made a detailed medical report to my GP.

It’s healing really well thank you. She seems so much more confident now which is great.
Glad the flowers have lasted well and it was just a small gesture to say thank you for your skill and patience. I really appreciate you removing my skin tag too, there is absolutely no sign of it ever being there which is great.
I’m sure I’ll see you again at some point in the not too distant future with something for you to fix either with me or my girls.

Dear Sam
Thank you for getting in touch to ask me about my facial scar following surgery. I must say, your after-care has been amazing and not something I take for granted.
The wound has healed well and apart from a slightly raised area where you had to use a slightly different approach to the stitching (!), the scar is hardly noticeable. I daresay that in time, this will also disappear.
I hope you and your family are all well and I send you my sincere thanks for your friendly and professional care.
