Every appointment at the practice is with a consultant dermatologist, with time set aside to listen, examine and explain. Here is what each appointment is for and what to expect, so you can choose with confidence.
Whether you are seeing us for the first time, coming in for treatment or returning to review progress, each appointment has a clear purpose and is never rushed.
In person, with a consultant dermatologist
For any skin, hair or nail concern that is best assessed in the room. Your consultant takes a careful history, examines the skin closely and talks you through what they find, in plain language.
Planned and carried out by a consultant
When your care involves a procedure, it is discussed and agreed with you at a consultation first, then carried out by a consultant dermatologist. Nothing is rushed and nothing goes ahead until you are comfortable.
For patients already in our care
A return appointment to review how you are getting on after a consultation, treatment or procedure. It is a chance to check progress, ask questions and adjust the plan if your skin needs something different.
A first appointment for new patients. Your consultant gets to know your concern and medical background, then recommends the right next step, whether that is treatment, a procedure or simply reassurance.
