Top Dermatology Clinics in Ottawa
Finding a good dermatologist can be tough when you don’t really know what you’re looking for. This is why we put together this list of the top dermatology clinics in Ottawa to help you out!
1. Laserderm
LaserdermDr Sharyn Laughlin
They provide treatment plans that are customized especially for you and how your personal issues need to be treated. They deal with all sorts of common and uncommon skin issues that you can ask about.
They have 5 different types of laser hair removal. The machine used on you will depend on your skip and hair type to ensure the highest safety margin and efficacy possible.
Unlike most laser hair removal clinics, Laserderm doesn’t offer any packages because they really want each experience to be as specific to the individual patient as possible. Some may require 3-4 while some may require 5-7 so they’d rather do the job right with an 80-100% clearance.
They provide both in-clinic and virtual care to their patients. The initial consultation fee is $100.
Weirdly, they don’t offer online bookings so you’ll have to book with them through call. They also don’t mention any follow up fees so it must be on a case-to-case basis.
Customer Reviews
Here are a few good reviews of satisfied clients of Laserderm:
“I’ve had 3 treatments here so far. I’ve been very pleased with how everything has turned out and the professionalism of all the staff I’ve encountered. Sure sometimes they run behind but this is the case with many clinics, it’s hard to predict how long you’ll need to spend with each client.” -Eve

2. Ottawa Derm Centre
Ottawa Derm Centreaesthetic cosmetics
They seek to educate their patients on their personal conditions so that they can work together as a team to work through the specialized. For any medical dermatology conditions, they require you to visit a general practitioner and ask for a referral to the clinic.
They require you to arrive 15 minutes before your initial appointment to be able to fill out a medical intake form which is basically just your medical history. After this, they begin by doing a thorough exam from head to toe to address any concerns you may have forgotten to take note of.
After these exams and the assessment, a proper treatment plan will be drafted out for you which will be contained in an information package that is either hard copy or virtual.
Anyway, they don’t give any free consultations unlike most dermatology clinics and they’re also a tad difficult to contact. However, the majority of clients praise the quality and effectiveness of their services, so that must mean you can’t be great at everything.
Also, please note that they are strictly by-appointment only.

She has a wonderful bedside manner and ensures that you leave knowing what you need to do and when you might begin to see results. Thank you Livia for making my experience a positive one and for your follow – up phone call today. I greatly appreciate it. This is a wonderful clinic with an amazing staff !” -Maureen

I absolutely love the work done on my nose, it is looking better than I had ever imagined. My experience at the ODC clinic is always pleasant and enjoyable, the clinic has always been clean and welcoming.
