Our Commitment to Paediatric Dermatology
Paediatric dermatology is a unique field that requires specialised knowledge and a gentle touch. Unlike adult dermatology, treating children's skin involves understanding the distinct physiological differences and communicating effectively with both young patients and their parents. At Dr Dropin, we pride ourselves on our ability to offer this specialised care with the utmost professionalism and empathy.

Our Services
Comprehensive Diagnosis and Treatment
At Dr Dropin, we offer a broad spectrum of services to diagnose and treat various paediatric skin conditions. Some of the conditions we commonly manage include:
Eczema and Dermatitis: These inflammatory conditions can be particularly challenging for children. We provide individualised treatment plans that include topical therapies, lifestyle recommendations, and strategies to avoid triggers.
Birthmarks: Whether dealing with vascular birthmarks like hemangiomas or pigmented ones such as café-au-lait spots, our advanced diagnostic and treatment options ensure effective management.
Acne: Often affecting teenagers but sometimes younger children as well, acne is treated comprehensively at our practice, using the latest therapies to address all severity levels.
Psoriasis: This chronic condition can significantly impact a child’s life. We offer tailored treatment plans to control symptoms and improve skin health.
Infections and Rashes: From bacterial and viral infections to fungal rashes, our expertise ensures accurate diagnosis and prompt treatment to relieve discomfort and prevent complications.
Same-Day Appointments
We recognise that paediatric skin issues often require immediate attention. That’s why we offer same or next day appointments, ensuring that your child receives timely care.
Flexible Consultation Options
Understanding the challenges parents face, we provide flexible consultation options, including in-clinic, video, and photo consultations. These remote options allow for initial assessments and even some treatments to be conducted without the need for an in-person visit, making it easier for families to access our services.
Affordable and Accessible Care
At Dr Dropin, we believe that high-quality dermatological care should be accessible and affordable. Unlike many private practices that require referrals and charge high fees, we operate on a model designed to make our expert care available to more families.
No Referral Needed
We streamline the process by eliminating the need for referrals. This direct access to specialist care allows for quicker diagnosis and treatment, which is crucial in managing skin conditions effectively.

Our practice is built around a patient-centred approach. From the moment you walk through our doors, you will experience our commitment to your child’s comfort and well-being. Our dermatologists excel in communicating with children and their parents, creating a trusting relationship that is essential for successful treatment outcomes.
Child-Friendly Environment
We have designed our clinic to be welcoming and child-friendly. Recognising that medical appointments can be daunting for children, our environment is soothing and engaging, helping to reduce anxiety and make visits more pleasant.
Personalised Care Plans
Every child’s skin condition is unique, and so is our approach to treatment. We take the time to understand the specific needs and concerns of each patient, crafting personalised care plans that address their individual circumstances. This tailored approach ensures effective treatment while considering the child’s overall well-being.
