Hello, how
are you?
I am Pedro
Navarro Guillamon, specialist in Dermatology and Venereology. Since 2018 I have dedicated
myself to taking care of the largest and most precious organ of the body, the
skin. The Dermatologist is the best trained specialist for the care of both
healthy and diseased skin.
And now I am going to answer some questions you might have...
Where were you trained as a Dermatologist? I had the honour of being trained at the Hospital Universitario Virgen
de la Victoria of Malaga. I was also able to complement this training with
stays in the Pediatric Dermatology service at Hospital La Paz in Madrid and in
the Dermatopathology service at UCSF (University of California San Francisco) in San Francisco (USA).
Where do
you work ? Currently I combine my practice in the public health system at the
Hopistal Universitario Virgen de la Victoria with private practice in my
personal medical clinic located in Malaga city center.
How do you
understand Medicine and Dermatology? My vision of Medicine and Dermatology has
three fundamental pillars: knowledge, closeness and communication. My medical
care is based on an anamnesis and dermatological examination to achieve the
desired diagnosis.
This examination will often include an iconographic study,
dermoscopy and/or trichoscopy. Next, we will establish together an
appropriate therapeutic strategy. Within the dermatological therapeutic arsenal
I will put at your disposal topical, oral and infiltrated medication directly
into the skin. We will also carry out medical cosmetic treatment to improve the
general health of your skin. Therefore, the approximate duration of the
consultations is 20-30 minutes.
What
languages do you speak during consultation? I attend both in Spanish and
English.
Which are
your pathologies of greatest interest? Difficult question…I would say Acne,
Rosacea, Melasma, Atopic Dermatitis, Tumoral and Inflammatory Pathology,
Dermatological Surgery, among many others.
What age
range do you receive in you dermatological clinic? From children to the oldest in the
house, everyone is welcome.
Do you work
with private insurance companies? No, in the consultation model that I carry
out I only see private patients or those
with medical reimbursement insurance.
What
happens if I don't live in Malaga? Nothing to worry about, the online
consultation modality is also available. Besides, medical prescription can be
sent via email.
