Department of Dermatology
The Department of Dermatology, Venereology and Leprosy was established at Government Medical College, Surat in 1967 and the Post Graduate centre was started in 1982. As the branch of dermatology has evolved immensely over the years, the department at Government Medical College, Surat has grown beyond leaps and bounds. The newer equipments and techniques are being introduced in the department at a scorching pace. The department now boasts of being in the elite list of very few colleges in the Government set up possessing CO2 LASER, Diode Laser, Long Pulsed Nd YAG LASER, and Skin USG. We are seeing almost 450-550 outdoor patients daily and the number of indoor patients is 30-40 per month on an average apart from the references from various departments of New Civil Hospital, Surat.
