Dr Cho takes a holistic, skin-health-first approach to her consultations, combining careful clinical assessment with dermoscopy and, where appropriate, biopsy or surgical treatment. She places importance on clear communication, ensuring patients understand their diagnosis and treatment options so that they can make informed decisions about their care.

Dr Cho is very pleasant, professional and most importantly got my skin much better
I've been seeing Dr Shin-Young Cho for a few years now and have always been impressed by her expertise, professionalism, and caring approach. She has helped me successfully manage both acne and rosacea, and my skin has improved significantly under her care. Dr Cho takes the time to understand your concerns and creates a personalised treatment plan that delivers real results. Thanks to her advice and treatments, my skin is clearer, calmer, and healthier than it has been in years. I've also noticed a remarkable improvement in my overall skin quality and rejuvenation. I would highly recommend Dr Shin-Young Cho to anyone looking for an experienced dermatologist for acne treatment, rosacea management, and skin rejuvenation. Her knowledge and attention to detail are exceptional.
Dr Cho analysed my personal patient history with much attention, explained her deductions in a way I could easily understand, performed a very thorough consultation, discussed with me the most appropriate therapy especially taking into account my personal needs, and even detected and corrected an inaccurate diagnosis for an additional problem that I had had from a less specialised public health practitioner. Would highly recommend.
Very helpful visit with Dr Shin-Young Cho for my daughter's gradual hair loss. She examined my daughter's case in details and gave us detailed course of what we need to do next.
Absolutely fantastic care! Dr Shin-Young Cho is brilliant, supportive and an expert in her field. She guided me through the process and made me feel very comfortable. Highly recommend!
Dr Shinny is a well experienced consultant dermatologist. I had my lipoma removed and I was impressed with her technique. The wound healed well and scar was small.
Very thorough skin check, I felt very reassured. I've recommended Dr Cho to my friends and family!

So comfortable explaining the procedure, reassuring and very professional
