Psoriasis
Psoriasis is a chronic (long term) skin disease affecting approximately three percent of the Qatari population. It has a range of physical, emotional and social effects. At Hamad Medical Corporation (HMC), we offer a range of treatments and education to facilitate the management of this condition to patients and their families. We also work towards raising awareness of this commonly misunderstood disease.
