Sussex Community Dermatology Service

Sussex Community Dermatology Service (SCDS) is a specialized healthcare provider delivering community-based dermatological services to NHS patients across Sussex, England. The organization focuses on providing accessible care for a variety of skin conditions, including skin cancer diagnostics, minor surgery, and management of chronic inflammatory diseases like psoriasis and eczema. By operating out of local GP surgeries and community hospitals, SCDS aims to reduce the burden on acute hospital trusts and shorten patient waiting times. The service is currently managed by Omnes Healthcare, following its acquisition of the previous provider, About Health.
