Location

Most Dermatology outpatient appointments take place in Stirling Royal Infirmary, mainly in the dedicated Dermatology Centre or at Falkirk & District Royal Infirmary in the Dermatology Day Treatment Centre.

In order to improve access to our Dermatology clinics, we also hold clinics in Alloa Health Centre, Balfron Clinic, Callander Health Centre and Park View Practice, Stenhousemuir.

The Forth Valley Dermatology Centre at Stirling Royal Infirmary

The Dermatology Centre at Stirling Royal Infirmary is situated at the old Ward 2 site. 

To find us, if you are coming in the Queen Elizabeth Wing entrance, you should walk through the shopping area, turn right, past the Conference Centre, then along the corridor, past the Chapel, and turn right.  You will pass the 'tunnel' with the clear plastic doors on your left, and the new Dermatology Centre is situated slightly further up the corridor on your left hand side.

Finding us in Falkirk & District Royal Infirmary, walking from Main Entrance

If you are walking in to the Hospital through the main entrance at the front of the Infirmary, walk to the top of the carpeted area, then turn left until you reach the 'Bistro' restaurant on the left hand side.  Opposite the 'Bistro', there is a corridor - walk to the doors at the end of the corridor, then turn left through another set of doors, and turn right through the green door.  The Dermatology Day Care Centre is a cream coloured door, which is facing you at the end of the walkway.

Services

Forth Valley Dermatology services are currently undergoing some changes.  The purpose of these changes is to provide a quality service, in the quickest time, in the most appropriate location, offering choice where we can.  You may already have confirmed your appointment through the patient focussed booking system.  This allows you to telephone the appointment booking centre to arrange a suitable time for your appointment.

Referrals

Referrals should be made via your GP to a Consultant Dermatologist at either Falkirk & District Royal Infirmary or Stirling Royal Infirmary.  The Dermatologists will then decide whether they consider the appointment to be urgent, soon or routine, and then they will forward the appointment letter to Patient Focus Booking, and an appointment will be arranged to suit you (see 'Services' above).
