About Dr. Nidhi Singh

Dr. Nidhi Singh is a Senior Consultant Dermatologist and Cosmetologist at Gleneagles HealthCity Chennai, with over 16 years of experience in clinical and aesthetic dermatology. She is known for her careful, evidence-based approach to skin health — whether she is managing a complex autoimmune skin condition like cutaneous lupus or helping a patient work through long-standing, difficult-to-treat psoriasis. Patients often describe her as someone who listens first and explains clearly, which makes a real difference when dealing with conditions that can feel overwhelming.

Dr. Singh completed both her MBBS and her MD in Dermatology, Venereology, and Leprosy at JIPMER, Puducherry — one of India's most respected medical institutions. Her early career took her through several hospitals including SVMCH&RC in Puducherry and ELMCH in Lucknow, building a broad clinical foundation across diverse patient populations. She joined Gleneagles HealthCity in 2015 and has since grown into her current senior role, a journey that reflects steady trust earned through consistent clinical outcomes.

Her clinical interests span both medical and cosmetic dermatology. On the medical side, she has deep experience in conditions such as severe psoriasis, chronic eczema, vitiligo, cutaneous lupus, and rare pediatric skin disorders. On the cosmetic side, she offers laser treatments for acne scars, pigmentation, and skin rejuvenation, as well as chemical peels and Botox injections. This breadth means patients rarely need to look elsewhere for a referral — she can often manage the full picture of a patient's skin health in one place.

For international patients travelling to Chennai, Dr. Singh is a reassuring choice. She is fluent in English, Hindi, and Tamil, so communication is never a barrier. Gleneagles HealthCity is a JCI-accredited hospital with infrastructure built for international visitors, and Gaf Healthcare can help coordinate every step — from the initial appointment to any follow-up care you need after returning home. If you or a family member is looking for expert dermatological care in India, Dr. Singh's combination of strong academic training, years of clinical practice, and genuine patient focus makes her well worth considering.
