Amy Perkins — Head of Design
✨ Consultant Dermatologist | Educator | Public Health Advocate | AI Collaborator | Skcin Ambassador 📱 Instagram, TikTok, Substack: @dramyperkins 🌐 Website: www.amyperkinsdermatology.com I’m a dermatologist with a vision that goes far beyond the clinic room – rooted in education, evidence, equity, and impact. Based at NHS Forth Valley, I’m progressing through the GMC Portfolio Pathway to join the Specialist Register as a Consultant Dermatologist. 🎓 With an MBChB (Distinction, Edinburgh), PGDip in Medical Education (Dundee), and an MSc in Skin Ageing & Aesthetic Medicine (Manchester, ongoing), I bring clinical acumen and pedagogical insight to everything I do. I’ve contributed to national guidelines, presented at national and international conferences, and published in peer-reviewed journals. 🧑🏫 As an Honorary Clinical Lecturer at the University of Glasgow, I lead tutorials, design modules, examine students, and support postgraduate learners through my work with the Royal College of Physicians, where I sit on the Board of Examiners. 📲 I’m a Social Media Reporter for the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology (EADV), covering key updates from international meetings. I also use Instagram, TikTok and Substack to unpack skin myths, explain the science, and advocate for evidence-based practice in an era of viral misinformation. ☀️ As an ambassador for Skcin, the UK’s leading skin cancer charity, and a member of the Scottish Government’s Sunbed Working Group, I campaign for better sun safety and improved regulation. I’ve also represented the UK at the European Parliament on sunbed legislation. 🗞️ Featured in The Daily Mail, Sunday Post and STV News, I use both traditional and social media to advocate for public health, patient safety, and responsible aesthetics. 💻 As a member of the OpenAI Forum, I explore how large language models (LLMs) can support healthcare innovation. 🤝 I actively contribute to dermatological science through roles with the British Association of Dermatologists, British Dermatological Surgery Society, British Photodermatology Group, Scottish Dermatological Society, and EADV.
