Can I bring my own medication to my dermatology appointment?

Green Square Dermatology generally does not administer medications supplied directly by patients.

Medications used during procedures are normally supplied by the treating dermatologist or obtained through controlled pharmacy supply channels. This helps ensure appropriate storage, sterility and medication integrity.

Possibly.

Dermatologists consulting at Green Square Dermatology determine their own clinical policies and treatment arrangements. Your treating dermatologist must be satisfied that any medication administered meets appropriate safety, storage and handling requirements.

In limited circumstances, a medication may be accepted if it is supplied directly by a pharmacy and delivered to the clinic, rather than brought to the appointment by the patient.

Any such arrangement must be approved in advance by your dermatologist. The medication must arrive unopened and in its original packaging.

No, unless your dermatologist has specifically asked you to do so.

If you believe a medication needs to be supplied for your treatment, please contact our staff before your appointment so that the appropriate arrangements can be confirmed.
