St John's Institute of Dermatology
St John's Institute of Dermatology is one of the world's leading centres for patients with skin disease.
It began life in 1863 as both a skin diseases hospital and a postgraduate teaching institute. Both entities relocated in the 1980s to St Thomas' Hospital, when they were also formally joined and renamed St John's Institue of Dermatology.
