The Alfred's dermatology department is a large tertiary referral centre for adults with all inflammatory and genetic skin conditions, as well as non-melanoma skin cancers.
The unit is focused on new treatments for common conditions such as eczema and psoriasis as well as advancements in the treatment of more rare conditions such as vitiligo, hidradenitis suppurativa, bullous pemphigoid and urticaria.
