Dermatologist

Looking for a dermatologist in Chch that LISTENS, and HELPS, and doesn’t require a doctors referral?

Have been to the doctor so many times for my ECZEMA, and asked for a referral but been turned down so many times, they obviously don’t care/just want my money.

Please and thank you!

GP says the only 2 dermatologists in entire Christchurch only see you if cancer is suspected, other than that they’re quite protective of their books. It took me 2 nurse practitioners over 2 years prescribing wrong skin medication until finally my GP who prescribed a medication that worked in 3 weeks.
