What has been achieved?

• Surgical dermatology service provided at a local health centre.

“It was much more convenient having my surgery done at the Health Centre rather than at hospital, I was dealt with quickly and saw the same Doctor throughout my treatment and appointments”.

“I would like to congratulate you on your new Dermatology Department. I felt more comfortable in a situation I knew with my own Doctor, I was in and out quickly and parking was much more convenient”.
