PERSONALIZED DERMATOLOGY CARE
At Victoria Park Medispa Toronto Bay, our dermatology services are supported by Dr. Sandy Skotnicki, dermatologist, and Dr. Kai Man (Lily) Xu, a physician with a focused practice in skin disorders. Depending on the nature of your concern, care may be provided through our medical dermatology or aesthetic services.
A medical referral is required to access dermatology consultations through OHIP, and consultations are covered by OHIP. Certain treatments or follow-up appointments may fall outside of OHIP coverage and involve additional costs.
