Does this mole need a second opinion

I recently requested to be referred to a dermatologist for a mole which is new within my 20s and has grown quite large. It’s located on my shoulder and something in my gut was telling me it’s not quite right.

I was told it looked fine when I went to the hospital. However I have developed a bit of anxiety around medical things after I had a cyst removed last year which I was told was benign before removal and then pathology confirmed it had intact been malignant.

Basically said mole has now also developed a new dot on the border so I’m wondering if I should ask for a second opinion or request it be removed so that I stop obsessing. Just looking for anyone else who may have had a similar experience?
