An online consultation with Dr Anita Amin as your virtual dermatologist can mean you get an answer about your skin problems rapidly. Teledermatology is when a dermatologist diagnoses a skin problem at a distance, using online photographs. Telederm is recognised as a safe way of rapidly getting a dermatolgist’s opinion about skin problems- including skin cancer and rashes. Further advice is provided on who to see and how quickly, saving a visit to the GP 70% of the time.

What is Teledermatology?

Teledermatology provides access to a dermatologist online, using photos and an online symptom checker questionnaire. Based on photos and your dermatology symptoms, an online dermatologist can diagnose skin problems and sign post you for simple treatment in up to 80% of cases, without the need to see a GP. Where treatment is needed, you will be advised of this.
