Trust in a Specialist

Why choose a dermatologist to treat your skin condition?

Dermatologists are specialists who are fully qualified in the diagnosis and management of diseases of the skin, hair and nails. They undertake at least twelve years of undergraduate and rigorous specialist training and examinations to qualify as a skin specialist.

All dermatologists in Australia are Fellows of the Australasian College of Dermatologists (ACD) and can be found on this specialist register here. The ACD is the only organisation accredited to train and assess dermatologists in Australia.
