Private child dermatologist recommendations

Can anyone recommend a private dermatologist in London for teenage acne, chicken pox scarring and eczema. The waiting list to be seen by a Derm is awful via the nhs route. Happy to pay for private,

Dr Karolina Gholam at the Cromwell - highly recommend, she is wonderful and helped DS1 hugely when he had molluscum.

We were fighting a particularly hideous combo of molluscum in areas where DS1 was already prone to eczema, so when we tried to treat the molluscum it caused such bad eczema flare ups that it all got infected. We couldn't figure out what to treat first and everything seemed to be making it worse. So we went to the dermatologist with the eczema/molluscum/infection issue and she said - treat the eczema first, the rest will fall into place once the skin barrier is repaired. And she was right!

If your DD has a dimple in the middle of each white spot and it itches like the blazes, it is likely to be molluscum. Bastarding infection - apparently it's a form of the pox.

Hope Dr Gholam sorts it all out for you Flowers
