Our Dermatology Service runs from Thornbrook Surgery in Chapel-en-le-Frith and Chinley Surgery in Chinley for adult and paediatric patients. Waiting times for appointments are 10 to 12 weeks.
We can provide some procedures in clinic offering patients a choice of a comprehensive “one stop” service such as cryogenic therapy and some minor surgical procedures. Patients that require more specialist treatments or procedures will be brought back to clinic at a later date or if needed, referred on to another provider.
