“Our primary objective is to educate GPs, nurses, other health professionals, and the general public on skin conditions.” Though some of the information is focused on clinicians it has a good patient and carers sections. In particular:

• There are some excellent patient leaflets for some common conditions which replicate what information a GP is likely to provide, including on when to consider a referral to a specialist. Patient Information Leaflets
• Under the patient and carers section there is information on how to apply various creams Patients and carers
• For common conditions not covered by the patient leaflets you will likely be able to find information under the A to Z of conditions but this is more clinical level information (e.g., for GPs). Clinical A-Z list
