The impact of skin conditions in the quality of life of dermatology patients is usually unappreciated by many physicians, and it is one of our areas of interest. We have several projects evaluating different instruments and assessments. At the Skin and Cancer Foundation Australia a group of very keen medical students are working with our SCFA research team and Deshan (dermatology registrar) in the impact of non-melanoma skin cancer in QoL. Charles (one of the students) has reviewed the literature in this area. Hopefully soon, we will be adding our own data.
