| Okay, first of all, take a deep breath and relax. This is Switzerland, not Botswana. Secondly, removing a mole is not a major operation. It can be done in the doctor's office with a local anesthetic.
Thirdly, all of my doctors here speak good English. In fact, several of them did residencies or Fellowships in the US at places like the Mayo Clinic and Mount Sinai School of Medicine in NYC.
All that aside, I have a very good dermatologist here, who is also a professor of dermatology at the Med School in Zurich:
Dr. Christoph Riess
Seefeldstrasse 4
8008 Zurich
Tel: 044 262 19 29
None of my doctors here have asked for letters from my US doctors, but it would help if you could give them a comprehensive medical history. I made up a Word document highlighting significant events in my medical history, listing all medications and supplements I take, any allergies and gave my doctors a printout. It saved a lot of time and gave them the necessary background info.
Good luck! | |

hi
its none of my business but i can understand her/his situation or worry regarding the mole. as i know i am even terrified of needles so if this person is something like me removing a mole can be a great deal.
i think you have been helpful to her but should be more sensitive.
best regards
