Have standards of care changed?

I went for my annual skin check back in June and had a mole biopsied. It came back “in situ” and I had a WLE two weeks ago. Today, I went in to have my sutures removed and set up my next full body scan. She said my appointment was for next June which confused me. Ten years ago I went through this same scenario and they had me come every 3 months, then 6, and then annually.

When I asked her why it wouldn’t be in 3 months, she said it wasn’t recommended but she would ask the doctor for me. When she came back, she said, “The doctor said you were just here in June and nothing came back. So you don’t need to come back until next June.” 😵‍💫 I replied that I had just gone through a biopsy and excision surgery which is the whole reason I was there today. She offered to make me an appointment for 6 months if it would make me happy. 😑 At that point, I wasn’t going to argue any further so I made an appointment for 6 months and left.

Now I’m curious; have the standards of care changed for in situ or severely dysplastic diagnoses?
