Dermatology – Children and young people’s clinic
Our dermatology department is child friendly and we have a highly skilled team of Nurse Specialists and a Nursery Nurse to help distract our young patients.
We know that coming into hospital can often be upsetting for children and their parents. To help make your child’s experience as stress free as possible, we have a special clinic just for children in our Dermatology Outpatient Department.
Most of our patients are referred to us by GPs, but we also see patients from other hospitals across the region.
