Leeds Community Dermatology Service

Who We Are

The Leeds Community Dermatology (and Basal Cell Carcinoma) Service started in August 2022 and is provided by the Leeds GP Confederation (the Confed). We have brokered a powerful collaborative with providers who have the skills, expertise, and community insight to design and deliver excellent dermatology care for people in Leeds. Our collaborative is made up of:

  • Enhance Primary Care Limited
  • Chevin Medical Practice
  • One Medical Group
  • Leeds Teaching Hospital NHS Trust

We currently have 6 delivery sites across the city, our delivery sites are:

  • Bramhope Surgery
  • Street Lane Surgery (Roundhay)
  • Lingwell Croft Surgery (Middleton)
  • The Light Surgery (Leeds City Centre)
  • Gibson Lane Surgery (Kippax)
  • The Gables Surgery (Pudsey)

The Confed designed this partnership around a common vision; better dermatology care centred around the needs of patients, to improve referral routes between primary and secondary care, to make provision more equitable and accessible, and most importantly, to better meet the needs of our local communities. Our wealth of experience working with local partners and building at-scale delivery models, centred around communities, delivers great benefits to people and general practice.

I thought the service was very good, much quicker than waiting for dermatology at the hospital which meant treatment could start sooner. Referral to the hospital for further investigation means I am not suffering while I wait.
I was so pleased with my consultation and the results, I had been waiting for years. Very satisfied.
