DERMATOLOGY AND VENEREOLOGY

Dermatology and Venereology is the branch of medicine dealing with diseases affecting the skin. It is a speciality with both medical and surgical aspects. A dermatologist is a specialist medical doctor who manages diseases related to skin, hair, nails, and a few cosmetic problems. Dermatologists also look after patients afflicted with Leprosy and Sexually Transmitted Diseases.

Dermatology is taught from the 4th Semester onwards. MBBS students have six weeks posting during their course. Our faculty holds theory and clinical sessions for MBBS students. Internal examinations are held regularly and this helps us to assess academic progress of our students. Our dedicated faculty and staff care for and offer procedures and services, both investigative and curative, pertaining to general dermatology, cosmetology and venereology at an affordable cost. Comprehensive care and treatment is provided for both outpatients and in-patients. Various treatment procedures are offered by our well trained dermatologists.
