I would like to get checked out by a dermatologist, but I need a referral from my GP. The situation is awkward at best, dangerous at worst. I really don't know what to do.
I would call the insurance company. They should be able to provide you with a dermatologist. I'm also fair-skinned, and I've had some pre-cancerous lesions on my face removed by dermatologists.
