About Dr. Anamika Wagh
Dr. Anamika Wagh is a qualified dermatologist with over 12 years of clinical experience in the diagnosis and treatment of skin, hair and nail conditions. She holds an MBBS in General Medicine and an MD in Dermatology, Venereology and Leprosy, a comprehensive postgraduate qualification that covers medical dermatology, sexually transmitted infections and the diagnosis and management of leprosy in addition to the full scope of general dermatological conditions. She is registered with the Maharashtra Medical Council under registration number MH/11-39398, confirming her standing as a regulated and qualified specialist.
Skin conditions affect a significant proportion of the population at some point in their lives, yet they are often undertreated or self-managed with over-the-counter products that do not address the underlying cause. Common conditions such as acne, eczema, psoriasis, fungal infections and pigmentation disorders each have distinct causes and treatment pathways that require proper dermatological assessment. Dr. Wagh takes a systematic approach to diagnosis, evaluating the clinical presentation, patient history and contributing factors before establishing a treatment plan tailored to the individual.
Hair and nail conditions form another important part of her practice. Hair loss (alopecia) is a concern that affects both men and women and can result from a wide range of causes including nutritional deficiency, hormonal changes, scalp infections, autoimmune conditions or hereditary factors. Identifying the specific cause is essential before treatment is started, as the management approach differs significantly depending on the type of alopecia. Dr. Wagh evaluates hair loss cases through detailed clinical assessment and appropriate investigations to determine the most suitable course of action.
As a specialist in venereology, Dr. Wagh is also trained to diagnose and manage sexually transmitted infections (STIs), which form a distinct and clinically important aspect of her postgraduate qualification. This training ensures she can manage dermatological presentations that may have an infectious or sexually transmitted component alongside routine skin and cosmetic concerns. Her scope further covers the evaluation and management of various skin infections, allergic reactions, chronic inflammatory skin disorders and dermatological presentations related to systemic diseases.
Dr. Anamika Wagh brings consistent, evidence-based dermatological care to her patients, with clear explanations and practical treatment plans at every consultation. She is registered with the Maharashtra Medical Council and maintains the professional standards required of a practising specialist. She also practises at Baner Multi-Speciality Hospital, Baner, Pune, where patients from Baner, Wakad, Aundh and Pashan can access her specialist dermatology care close to home.

Frequently Asked Questions
Dr. Wagh treats a wide range of medical and cosmetic skin conditions including acne, eczema, psoriasis, fungal infections, skin allergies, pigmentation disorders, warts and moles. She also manages chronic inflammatory skin conditions and dermatological presentations linked to systemic health issues. For each condition, she conducts a thorough assessment before recommending a treatment plan appropriate to the specific diagnosis and the patient's medical history.
Hair loss has multiple possible causes, and treatment depends entirely on identifying the correct type and underlying reason. Dr. Wagh evaluates the pattern and duration of hair loss, reviews relevant medical and family history and may recommend blood tests to check for nutritional deficiencies, thyroid function or hormonal imbalances. Based on the findings, she recommends the appropriate treatment, which may include topical medication, oral therapy, nutritional supplementation or referral for further evaluation where indicated.
The MD in Dermatology, Venereology and Leprosy is the full postgraduate medical degree in skin specialisation as defined by the Medical Council of India. It encompasses medical dermatology covering all skin, hair and nail conditions, venereology covering sexually transmitted infections and their dermatological presentations and leprosy which remains a notifiable disease in India requiring specialist training. Holding this degree means Dr. Wagh has formal training across the complete clinical scope of dermatological practice.
Mild acne can sometimes be managed with over-the-counter products, but moderate to severe acne, acne that leaves scars, acne that persists despite self-treatment or acne associated with hormonal changes typically requires a dermatologist's assessment. Pharmacy products are designed for general use and do not address individual causes such as hormonal imbalances, resistant bacteria or specific skin types. A dermatological consultation allows for a targeted approach that is more effective and reduces the risk of long-term scarring.
You can book a consultation by contacting Baner Multi-Speciality Hospital through the hospital helpline or the online appointment booking option on the hospital website. For your first visit, bring a description of your skin, hair or nail concern including when it started and any products or medications you have already tried.
