Bundled with CourseWhat you’ll cover
Four sessions, organised the way primary care presentations actually arrive in clinic.
Approach to the Skin Complaint
Building a working differential from morphology, distribution, and history. The reasoning framework you’ll use for every patient that follows.
Common Outpatient Dermatology — Foundations
The high-frequency presentations: eczema, contact dermatitis, urticaria, acne, common infections. First-line therapy and when to escalate.
Inflammatory Dermatoses
Psoriasis, lichen planus, autoimmune dermatoses. Diagnostic clues, treatment ladders, and the comorbidities to screen for.
Tumours & Outpatient Procedures
Recognising benign vs concerning lesions, dermatoscopy basics, when to biopsy or refer, and the small procedures every GP should be comfortable with.
Bonus: Pocket-Reference PDFs
- Dermatologic emergencies — quick reference
- Outpatient dermatologic procedures — quick reference
- Geriatric dermatology — quick reference
- When to refer to dermatology — pocket card

Taught by a practising physician
I built this course around the dermatologic decisions I actually see physicians struggle with in clinic — not the rare zebras, but the daily ambiguity. Is this eczema or psoriasis? Topical or systemic? Treat now or biopsy first? Manage or refer?
Each session is structured around the reasoning, not the diagnosis — so the framework transfers to whatever skin presentation walks in next.
