Dermatology - information for professionals
Referral information
We only see patients following a referral from a doctor. Information for professionals about how to refer patients can be found in our professionals' section.
We also welcome email referrals from professionals for advice and guidance, ideally attaching good quality clinical photographs with appropriate patient consent.
GPs can make advice and guidance referrals via Choose and Book.
Consultants can seek a teledermatology opinion by emailing a referral letter and photographs to bwc.derm2@nhs.net.
A consultant dermatologist is always available out-of-hours to provide emergency dermatology advice to doctors. You can contact the on-call dermatologist through the hospital switchboard (0121 333 9999).
Courses
We run annual courses for both dermatologists and paediatricians.
