Department of Skin & VD of AWMCH provides advanced diagnosis and management of diseases of the skin, hair and nails, as well as venereal (sexually transmitted) diseases. The skin is the largest and most visible organ of the body and acts as a barrier. However, because the skin is more than just a simple wrapping for the body, it is also subjected to many diseases. At one time or another nearly everyone has had some type of skin disease. This is when dermatology and its practitioners, called dermatologists, play an important role. The Department aims to deliver the highest quality of care to patients with skin disorders, including skin cancers, immune and allergic processes (e.g. psoriasis, atopic dermatitis), diseases of other organ systems with skin manifestations and venereal diseases. We provide both adult and pediatric dermatological services.
