The only time it’s ok to be a TOTAL SPOTTER 👀

Skin cancer can be sneaky — but you don’t have to be caught off guard.

🔎 Use the ABCDEs of melanoma to check your skin:

Asymmetry
Border
Colour
Diameter
Evolving
Our handy guide below shows how to spot the signs and track changes on your skin.

💡 Melanoma is deadly if ignored — but highly treatable when caught early.

📍Need a check? Let Fairview Practice help you keep an eye on things (literally).

Call us on (021) 851-0665 to book a skin check.

🧴 And yes — sunscreen is still your best friend.

🌍💊 World Antimicrobial Awareness Week | 18–24 November

Antibiotics save lives — but only when used correctly. Misuse and overuse of antibiotics lead to antimicrobial resistance (AMR), making infections harder to treat and increasing the risk of disease spread, severe illness, and death.

At Fairview Family Practice, we’re committed to responsible antibiotic use.
👉 Always take antibiotics only as prescribed.
👉 Never share or reuse leftover medication.
👉 Ask your doctor if antibiotics are truly necessary.

Together, we can preserve the power of these life-saving medicines. 💙
