My Clinic: Northern Sydney Dermatology and Laser
Northern Sydney Dermatology & Laser began nearly two decades ago as a partnership between Dr Nina Wines and Dr Liz Dawes-Higgs. Since then, it has grown into a team of three principal dermatologists, with Dr Shreya Andric joining the leadership group.
From humble beginnings—an empty appointment book in an unfinished building—we are proud to have grown into one of the largest dermatology and laser clinics in the Southern Hemisphere. Today, our team includes 12 dermatologists, over 45 staff, and a community of more than 60,000 patients in our care.
Our mission remains the same: to deliver excellence in dermatology through clinical integrity, innovation, and personalised care.
