Our consultants

Our consultant dermatologists aim to help you get the most from your private healthcare experience and provide peace of mind with fast access to appointments, diagnosis and treatment, should it be required. In fact, our Consultant Dermatologist and Allergy Specialist Dr Roger Aldridge in 2010 was listed as one of the top five allergy specialists in Britain by The Times Listing (November 2010).

Dr Aldridge can refer on-site for nutritional medicine should that be required to support changes in diet to improve allergic sensitivity, and we have an on-site day-case operating theatre and separate treatment room so should any skin lumps or bumps be required to be biopsied or removed, this can be planned and delivered for you with ease on-site. Our pathology service means your results can be sent for lab analysis and returned quickly to your consultant, who can manage any ongoing treatment that may be required.
