On my last visit I casually mentioned a small growth on my buttocks that was hanging by a thread. I told Dr. Andersen that I was so squeamish I failed to get up the courage to snip it off myself (and this a number of times over several years). Dr. Andersen immediately warned me that snipping it off myself was not recommended. He proceeded to have his assistant freeze the area; then he removed it and gave no charge for the procedure.
