Specialty description

Dermatology is a diverse specialty that combines medical, surgical and research skills with the curiosity and visual acumen of a detective. Dermatologists’ eyes are uniquely trained to diagnose and treat thousands of conditions that affect the skin, and they help improve the quality of life and save the lives of patients from birth to old age.

Dermatologists have expertise in the diagnosis and treatment of benign and malignant disorders of the skin, adjacent mucous membranes (mouth and external genitalia), hair and nails.
