3 GPs are often the first physicians to evaluate skin lesions. Their initial assessment is crucial for early diagnosis, timely referral, and proper management.

4 Assessing diagnostic skill in dermatology: a comparison between general practitioners and dermatologists. Australas J Dermatol consecutive general practitioner referrals to a private dermatology practice were assessed. Concordance (GP-D) in 42% of all biopsied cases General practitioners agreed with the histological diagnosis in 24% of cases Dermatologists agreed with the histological diagnosis in 77% of cases. Concordance (GP-D) in 45% of all non-biopsied cases.
