Welcome to Dermatology at KSS. Our exciting 4 year training programme has been specifically developed in line with the 2009 Curriculum in order to enhance theknowledge and capability of each trainee in the treatment and the management of children and adults with skin disease.

 

 Dermatology is the diagnosis and treatment of over 2,500 different skin disorders. The scope of skin conditions seen includes inflammatory diseases like psoriasis and eczema, genetic and autoimmune disorders such as bullous pemphigoid, and skin cancers like malignant melanomas. Skin disease can affect individuals of all ages from birth to old age, and therefore treatments are also varied and can be challenging.

 

Each Dermatology department within the KSS programme has different strengths and features such as inpatient care of adults and children, outpatient general and specialist clinics, dermatological surgery, day treatment, phototherapy and patch testing. All our hospitals provide advanced dermatological surgical services, extensive day treatment care and outpatient clinic space for consulting and minor procedures.
