Of the total of over 16,000 dermatological consultations annually, a significant proportion comprises of highly specialized care, focusing on cutaneous oncology and complex inflammatory and immune-mediated diseases. The educational program in dermatology spans all levels of medical education from medical students to dermatology residency. We have an active, collaborative research environment, with an excellent publication record in cutaneous oncology, inflammatory diseases, skin immunology, and quality improvement.
