Dermatology

The dermatology service in the United Lincolnshire Hospitals NHS Trust is organised on a hub and spoke model to provide effective care for the rural population of Lincolnshire.

The aim is to provide a comprehensive, high quality service whilst providing care as locally as possible. All dermatologists work at the hub and have commitments at spokes and peripheral clinics.

We aim to undertake definitive treatment for most skin lesions at the first attendance.

A web-based tele-dermatology service is available to selected general practices and there are four GPs across the county who have a special interest in dermatology, all of whom work as clinical assistants.
