This clinic is dedicated to the identification and management of skin allergies. Contact dermatitis is an inflammation of the skin that results from direct contact with certain substances, such as soap, cosmetics, jewelry, skin care products, gloves, clothing or plants. It can be extremely itchy and uncomfortable. This reaction typically occurs between one and seven days following contact with the substance and usually lasts longer than a few days. The rash usually presents at the site of contact, but could present in a variety of locations and distributions.

The doctors of this clinic are responsible for doing patch testing for patients referred from general dermatology and for the employee referred from the General Medical Council(GMC). The results of the latter tests are recorded on a special form and handed over to the patient.
