Østfold Dermatologist Clinic is a specialist health service operating under an operating agreement with Helse Sør-Øst RHF. The clinic offers outpatient treatment that is equivalent to the services at the hospital outpatient clinics. To access consultations, a referral from a general practitioner or other doctor is required, and the clinic only handles problems that have been assessed by the referring doctor.
The clinic experiences high demand and therefore has limited capacity, which means that many referrals have to be rejected. This may affect the waiting time for patients seeking treatment. Østfold Dermatologist Clinic focuses on providing specialized dermatological services in line with current health regulations and guidelines.
