Skin evaluations by phone
Because a large part of dermatology is physical examinations for definitive diagnosis of skin disorders, it’s easier than ever to see a doctor with telehealth. The video screen on your phone, tablet, or laptop allows the doctor to see the concern and provide a diagnosis quickly and easily without ever having to step foot in the dermatology practice. Some of the skin conditions that can be diagnosed over telehealth options include:
- Acne
- Eczema
- Hair loss
- Psoriasis
- Rosacea
- Cold sores
- Rashes
- Hives
- Shingles
- Impetigo
Many of these conditions can be addressed with medication. If our dermatologist gives you a diagnosis of your condition that can be improved using prescription medications, we can easily send off your prescription to your local pharmacy for simple pickup at your convenience. If you require further evaluation, we will arrange for a visit to our practice if necessary. In our facility, we are taking great care in ensuring safety and health by following strict protocols and recommendations by the CDC.
