Dermatological Telemedicine Services

Not everyone is available during regular business hours. Our dermatology practice opens early and stays open late. We maintain a calm, caring, soothing and sanitary environment in which you can simply relax and let go.

Our telemedicine services make seeing a dermatologist even more convenient. Teledermatology visits are covered by most insurance plans under Governor Pritzker’s Executive Order.

Schedule a consultation quickly and easily using our Telehealth online portal. Teledermatology is the cutting edge of dermatology services for busy people who want to maximize the use of their time.

A telemedicine visit can be as effective as an in-person visit. A study completed at the University of Southern California Keck School of Medicine found that patients with psoriasis receiving teledermatology services had similar treatment outcomes compared to those receiving dermatology treatments for psoriasis in person.

You might schedule a teledermatology appointment to evaluate and discuss treatment options. You might also want more information about a particular symptom or condition.

We can tell you whether a condition requires an in-person visit. In some cases, we can tell you how to treat the condition yourself at home. A quick consult could save you a trip to our office and give you peace of mind.

When to Make a Dermatology Appointment

We encourage our patients to schedule annual skin checkups and skin cancer screenings. Prevention is the best treatment.

Skin cancer in its early stages might only be visible to an experienced dermatology specialist. Because of this visibility, it can be identified early and treated effectively.

Skin holds the internal organs in place and wards off unwanted visitors like bacteria, fungi and viruses. To perform this role properly, skin needs regular maintenance and ongoing care.

According to the National Institute of Health, your skin can be an overall measure of your body’s well-being. Odd moles and rashes can be a symptom of lupus, allergies or skin cancer. Some skin issues can reflect trouble with an internal organ. For example, yellowish skin can be a sign of liver disease.

We take pride in our high-tech clinic, our best and brightest staff and the compassionate patient care that is our specialty. Whatever you’re dealing with, you’ll find solutions with us. There isn’t much that we can’t make better.
