To assess Irish dermatologists' confidence with dermatology in patients with skin of colour (SOC), an online survey was distributed to all members of the Irish Association of Dermatology (IAD) by email.

Irish dermatologists have low confidence with skin pathology in SOC, and specific training could reduce this disparity.
