Dermatology

Hello, and welcome to the Dermatology section of the Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust (SaTH) website. Dermatology is the area of medicine that deals with conditions of the skin, nails, and hair. Here in RSH, we offer a wide range of services to help diagnose and manage symptoms. We are available to patients of all ages, and we strive to provide the best service possible. Our department runs Monday to Friday 9am – 5pm.

The Dermatology department works with St Michaels Clinic, a well established local provider of Dermatology services, who see Dermatology patients referred to the Trust by their General Practitioner and also provide a minor skin surgery service.
