Private Dermatology Services at The Kings Park Hospital in Stirling.
The Kings Park Hospital offers a comprehensive dermatology service. Our skin specialists (Dermatologists) diagnose and care for all skin conditions, including skin cancers, rashes, and hair, scalp and nail disorders.
Over 2,000 diseases of the skin, hair, and nails give our experienced dermatologists 2,000 possible diagnoses.
The main treatments we offer are:
You’ll be well cared for from the moment you enter the hospital, and once you have been introduced to your consultant, they will show you to a private consultation room.
Your Consultant Dermatologist will give you the time you need to explain your concerns and answer any questions you have about moles, skin growths, changes in the skin, or the nature of unexpected hair loss and nail disorders.
Sometimes a blood test is performed in the same setting. A plan for a biopsy or removal, or patch testing, may also be arranged to be done at a later date, giving you the chance to mull things over.
We also specialise in photodynamic therapy, an incredibly safe, non-surgical treatment that treats certain types of cancer. In part one of the treatment, your Consultant Dermatologist will put a light-sensitive cream on your skin. When you return to the clinic, they will shine an LED light on the area to be treated.
Dermatologists often use cryotherapy, - freezing damaged skin areas- to treat warty growths and certain pre-cancerous skin changes.
Benefits:
The Kings Park Hospital is one of a limited number of places in Scotland that offers photodynamic therapy, attracting many patients outside the central belt.
Dermatologists are effective gatekeepers to other disciplines as well and can refer you to other consultants if required.
