About Dermatology Department
Established in 1990, the department of Dermatology at Shalamar Hospital delivers individualised diagnosis and treatment services to people suffering from conditions related to the skin, hair and nails.
In response to the growing need in clinical care, the Dermatology Department expanded its operations in 2010 to include phototherapy, cryotherapy and cauterisation services. Recognizing the need to train the future leaders, the Dermatology Department has excelled in academic dermatology at Shalamar Medical and Dental College. In 2015, the department received accreditation from College of Physicians and Surgeons Pakistan (CPSP) for its postgraduate training programmes of FCPS and MCPS.
