Special interests include the medical and surgical treatment of skin cancers and the diagnosis / management of challenging skin eruptions (rashes). Referrals are also taken for acne, hair disorders, and skin allergy.
Patients are seen for consultation at a convenient time and scheduled thereafter for skin surgery, allergy tests, laser treatment, photodynamic therapy and in-patient ward treatments as required.
Private appointments can be scheduled directly with the relevant hospital clinic as listed below. A referral letter is not essential but is preferred and may be a requirement for claims under health insurance. Late evening consultations are available by appointment.
