What should I expect in an initial consultation?
For your initial consultation at Dunedin Skin and Surgery, you can expect to receive a comprehensive assessment of your skin condition from Dr Sharma. This assessment will typically include a review of your medical history, a physical examination and an evaluation of your current symptoms. Based on this assessment, we will work with you to develop a personalized treatment plan. We will also take the time to answer any questions you may have and provide you with education on your condition and how the treatment can help.
