Dr Shammi Theesan, MBBS, BMedSci, FACD Dermatologist  (Skin, Hair and Nail Specialist)
Founding Dermatologist, ODE  Dermatology.

As one of Melbourne's leading medical dermatologists and the founder of ODE Dermatology, I'm passionate about sharing my innovative dermatology with the Melbourne community.

Here at ODE Dermatology, I proudly combine the ancient eastern medicine of my Sri Lankan Tamil heritage together with cutting-edge science and technology.

This means a focus on gut health and whole-body wellness— I fervently believe your body's internal state translates into your physical presentation. When this internal wellness is combined with our medical-grade treatments and technology, the results are transformative.

My expertise comes from a Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Medicine and Surgery, followed by a year of further studies in genetics at Harvard. Additionally, as part of my specialist dermatology training, I've had the pleasure of working at the Royal Melbourne, Skin Health Institute, and Western Hospital. I also spent two years of training at St George’s Hospital, London, and am a proud fellow of the Australasian College of Dermatologists

I've had the joy of giving numerous lectures and talks at dermatology conferences and GP educational events, as a keynote speaker, as well as speaking with 774 ABC Melbourne, House of Wellness - Channel 10, Vogue Australia, Harper’s Bazaar, Marie Claire, Australian Women’s Weekly, Adore Beauty, Pedestrian TV, Mamamia and Vogue Australia.
