Private Dermatology for Burgess Hill Patients

Urticaria (hives and allergic skin reactions) and hidradenitis suppurativa are among the more complex conditions we treat, alongside eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, rashes, warts, skin tags and suspected skin cancer, in patients aged 16 and over.

Skin diagnostics including biopsies, swabs and patch testing help pin down the cause of a stubborn rash or reaction.

A consultant examines your skin, reaches a diagnosis, arranges any diagnostics needed and sets out a treatment plan, dealing with you directly throughout rather than passing you along.

Inflammatory conditions such as eczema, psoriasis and rosacea are treated medically, with topical and oral therapies tailored to the diagnosis.

Where a lesion or mole needs removing, care extends to minor surgery and lesion removal. As a guide, procedure fees including hospital fees start from £350 for shave excision, curettage and cautery, £500 for cyst removal, and £775 for skin cancer excision including histology. These fees relate to lesion removal and skin surgery. Your consultant confirms all fees before anything goes ahead.

Consultant-led from day one, with a team covering skin cancer, acne and general dermatology and holding leading UK and international memberships.

The clinic is at Nuffield Health Haywards Heath, Burrell Road (RH16 1UD), about four miles from Burgess Hill, and sees patients aged 16 and over. No referral is required.

Hives that keep coming back, known as chronic urticaria, can be frustrating and are not always easy to pin down. A consultant can investigate the possible triggers, arrange relevant testing where appropriate, and put a management plan in place.

The same specialist assessment covers more complex conditions such as hidradenitis suppurativa, which causes recurrent abscesses and nodules and benefits greatly from proper dermatological care.

Burgess Hill patients can book directly at Haywards Heath. Consultations and recommended treatments may be covered by insurance depending on your policy, and self-pay fees are confirmed upfront.
