Abstract
A cross-sectional survey to determine healthcare professionals’ confidence in recognising different skin conditions presented in primary care. A total of 209 clinicians responded: GPs (45%), Non-GPs (55%). Confidence was highest for acne, eczema, urticaria, and psoriasis. Lowest confidence was reported for pemphigus vulgaris, lichen planus, bullous pemphigoid, and discoid lupus. Most HCPs (93%) reported a need for further support, particularly in lesion recognition, skin of colour, and dermoscopy. Free-text responses highlighted difficulties in recognising skin cancers, atypical rashes, and limited access to advice and guidance services.
