COVID-19 Statement From Dr Alia
"The global Covid-19 pandemic has challenged each and every one of us. Keeping the concerns of my patients at the forefront of my care, I have decided to continue the option for video consultations. We are in a new world of medicine and remote consulting has proved a great adjunct to my practice. I have also recommenced face-to-face consultations and am delighted to be able to see my patients again in person. Please contact my admin team to book an appointment.” Dr Alia - The Psychodermatologist, September 2020

What We Do
As a fully GMC certified, UK trained Consultant Dermatologist, I am pleased to provide medical and surgical dermatology services for children and adults with skin, hair and nail conditions. Being dual trained in dermatology and psychology I have a special interest in Psychodermatology and also consult in this exciting new field.

Medical dermatology services encompass diagnosis and management of a vast number of dermatological conditions, including skin, genital, hair and nail problems.

I regularly see babies and children in my practice and have worked in combined clinics with allergists and general paediatricians.

As a dermatologist with a specialist interest in psychodermatology (a ‘psychodermatologist’) I treat the mind and skin together.

In addition to psychodermatology services I offer extended consultations to assess and manage other skin conditions (e.g. acne, eczema, psoriasis).

Supporting your skin with appropriate skin care helps to maintain and enhance its natural properties as well as protecting from damage.

It is well known that skin cancer is the most common cancer world-wide, and the rates continue to rise.

I am trained in performing minor skin surgery for the purposes of diagnosis and management of skin lesions (including skin cancer) and other skin problems in children and adults.
