​The first step
If you are concerned that you have developed psoriasis, you should make an appointment to see a primary care physician. In many cases they will be able to prescribe effective treatment directly. More complex cases will be referred to a dermatology specialist. Appointments to see HMC’s dermatology specialists can only be made with a valid referral. Referrals can be obtained from a Primary Healthcare Clinic (PHCC), private clinic or from another doctor within HMC if they are referring you across specialties.
