Telehealth Visits Q & A
What are telehealth visits?
With telehealth visits, we'll conduct your visit using safe and secure telecommunication technology. This allows you to get the care you need without a trip to the office.
During telehealth visits, you can talk to your dermatologist on the phone or through a video chat app. Telehealth also includes communication with your health provider through email, text, or chat message.
Am I a candidate for telehealth visits?
We'll determine if you're a candidate for telehealth visits during a brief phone intake or consultation. Common reasons for a telehealth visit are skin issues they can diagnose by visual examination of your skin or if you need to maintain social distancing because of health risks.
In some cases, your provider at Integrated Dermatology of Tidewater may recommend an in-office visit after your initial telehealth visit. This may be needed if we have concerns your skin condition is cancerous.
What can I expect during telehealth visits?
You can expect comprehensive, patient-centered care during your telehealth visit at Integrated Dermatology of Tidewater.
Our providers always make sure patients have a great experience, whether your appointment is at the office or through telecommunication.
The specifics of your telehealth visit may depend on your concerns. During your exam, we'll ask detailed questions about your symptoms, medical history, and types of medications and supplements you take.
They may also ask to examine the skin problem during your video chat or request that you send photos for closer examination.
After your exam, we'll discuss your diagnosis with you and go over our recommendations. We may request additional testing to confirm or rule out a diagnosis.
What type of treatment can I get through telehealth visits?
Specific treatment for your skin condition following your telehealth visit may depend on your diagnosis. For a follow-up visit, we may refill your usual prescription or prescribe a new medication based on your needs.
For new patients, treatment may include prescription medication to address the underlying skin issue.
Telehealth visits allow you to get the dermatology care you need from the comfort of your home or office. To learn more about telehealth visits at Integrated Dermatology of Tidewater, call the office, or request an appointment online.
