Our location

We are situated on the third floor of the Gwyneth Huelin Wing of the General Hospital.​ Enter via Outpatient department and follow the directions.

Parking is available in Patriotic Street car park. Ensure you put enough time on your parking ticket.

Referral process

If you have a skin condition that needs support of our team, you must get a referral from your GP. We cannot see patients without a referral.

All referrals are systematically sorted by the Consultant Dermatologist according to the urgency of need for care.

Information about current waiting times is available at Hospital waiting lists.

To optimise appointments, we can only see you for the condition you are referred for. If anything develops once you are referred, or your skin condition changes while you are waiting for an appointment, discuss this with your GP.
