Our story
‘In 2021, we founded Welbeck Dermatology as practising consultants, united by a clear and ambitious vision: to create a consultant-delivered service designed entirely around the needs of people with skin problems and allergies.
From the outset, we adopted a unique consultant-partner model, enabling us to build our department deliberately — selectively inviting outstanding dermatologists, allergists, plastic surgeons, and specialist nurses to join us. Every clinician has been chosen for their expertise, judgement and commitment to exceptional standards.
Today, we are the largest dermatology unit on a single site in Europe, home to over 50 carefully selected consultant doctors working collaboratively. If you’re seeking expert advice about the health of your skin, hair or nails, we look forward to welcoming you.’
– Dr Edward Seaton, Consultant Dermatologist at Welbeck London
