Dermatovenereology

A dermatologist (dermatovenerologist) specializes in diseases of the skin, hair, and nails, as well as the examination of skin lesions and moles. This helps in the early detection of changes, including melanoma.

When should you see a dermatologist?

You should contact us if you:

• have noticed a changing mole or a new skin lesion;
• wish to have a skin lesion removed;
• experience rashes, itching, or inflammatory skin changes;
• need treatment for acne, eczema, or psoriasis;
• are concerned about hair loss or nail fungus;
• suspect a sexually transmitted infection or wish to have preventive screening.

We provide professional foot care and treatment services. We also manage a variety of foot-related conditions, including ulcers, skin injuries, inflammatory diseases, and diabetic foot problems.

Who should visit the podiatric nurse?

We welcome all patients who need to pay special attention to their foot health, including:

• patients with diabetes;
• patients with rheumatic, cardiovascular, or thromboembolic diseases;
• elderly patients with foot health concerns or mobility limitations.

Cryotherapy is an effective and quick procedure in which corns, warts, or other benign skin lesions are removed using liquid nitrogen.

Cryotherapy is suitable for both the feet and other areas of the body.
