My elderly father has loads of warts on his back too many for our g.p. to freeze, he is to embarrassed to swim on hols, how can he get them removed?

Not warts: Seborrheic keratoses. A dermatologist can clear these. More important, he needs to understand that they are benign and tax-free. Your GP has no business fooling with this and should refer to a skin specialist.
