NORTH Hampshire patients who have been treated for any skin, nail or hair conditions are being sought to join a focus group.

The NHS North Hampshire Clinical Commissioning Group and Healthwatch Hampshire wants to hear about experiences of receiving care as to develop NHS services to reflect what local people want.

Dr Louise Beynon, local GP and clinical lead for clinical system pathways said: “This focus group is a great opportunity for anyone in north Hampshire to share their views, experiences and offer their suggestions on how we can improve the dermatology services.

“We are particularly interested in exploring the potential uses of technology to support patients.”

“The feedback we get from our patients, past or present, will help us create a new service specification which will better meet the needs of the people of north and west Hampshire.”

The group meets on Thursday, 9 August from 10am to noon at North Hampshire Clinical Commissioning Group’s offices in Central 40, Lime Tree Way, Chineham Business Park.
