Regular mole checkup

Hi everyone. In my home country it is usual to go once every year or two to a dermatologist to get your skin and moles checked for irregularities in order to identify skin cancer before it gets serious. I recently had an appointment in a dermatology center in Basel where the doctor just briefly looked at me (did not even use a magnifying glass) and then told me that in Switzerland you don’t do a checkup but only go to the doctor if you detect irregularities yourself. (Ofcourse I got charged 200 CHF for these 5 min of consultation…). Was I just unlucky with my choice of doctor or do you really rather wait for something to grow before you go to the dermatologist?
