Dermatologists specialise in the diagnosis, treatment and
prevention of skin diseases and cancers. Dermatologists are
initially trained as doctors, undertaking six or more years of
university study to gain their medical degree. Dermatologists look
after patients of all ages, from babies and children to adolescents
and adults.
Dermatologists at public hospitals are heavily involved in the
education of medical students, resident medical officers and
registrars, and work alongside other allied health professionals
such as nurses and pharmacists. Additionally, dermatologists run
courses and tutorials for general practitioners and other medical
specialists. Many dermatologists are involved in research, at both
the basic science and clinical levels.
