Our Essential Dermatology (ED) programmes have been developed in response to demands of VTS organisers and those involved in developing primary and intermediate care services. These programmes cover the essential information to enable a GP (plus some dermatology nurse practitioners) to cope with the vast majority of conditions encountered in day to day general practice. Please note there are two series ED1 and ED2, which cover different topics.
Essential Dermatology feedback
-
If more GPs attended these training sessions, referral into dermatology depts. could be decreased & therefore more cost effective
to the NHS & practices - The best talk on malignant skin lesions I have ever attended
- As a relatively new nurse prescriber found this study day really useful and think it would help to promote these clients for practice nurses/nurse prescribers in general practice

Just a quick note to say thank you so much for delivering such a brilliant day for our Essex GPs and Nurses.
At a quick glance of the evaluations it was very highly rated and many have asked for Essential Dermatology Series 2.
Essex EQUIP March 2017 - Impressive slides, excellent presentations. Not to be missed by any GP!
- Very clear, pitched presentations at correct level. Practically relevant & useful tips. Such personable and clearly experienced speakers – a pleasure to hear
- I think it was one of the best courses for GPs I have attended in a long time. I shall book again and already shared with colleagues learning points & advise them to attend too
