Dermatology
Our dermatology team provides expert care for all skin conditions.
We offer accurate diagnosis and effective treatment, with a focus on early detection of skin cancer and improving public awareness about skin health.
Most patients are seen in our outpatient clinic for assessment and treatment. We also run specialist clinics for specific skin problems and work closely with other hospital departments to provide joined-up care when needed.
Information for patients
If you are a new patient, please arrive 15 minutes before your appointment to register at reception. When booking, let us know if you need an interpreter so we can arrange this for you. Bring any creams you have been using for your skin and a list of all your current medications. Please allow up to one hour for your appointment.
We aim to keep to scheduled times, but delays can occur during busy periods.
