Dermatologist online: teledermatological consultation

Dermatologist online: Digital consultation by dermatologists

Dermatology is particularly well-suited for digital consultation, as diagnoses in most cases are made via visual assessment of the skin. The symptoms of skin diseases vary greatly. In this way, skin changes such as acne, eczema, contact allergies or urticaria can be quickly assessed and diagnosed by a specialist without losing valuable time.

The observation and documentation of chronic skin diseases such as psoriasis can also be well captured by teledermatology.

Online consultation thus forms a valuable supplement to classic dermatology.

Customer testimonials

“Only two hours after I filled out a short questionnaire, Dr. Greis called me. It actually turned out to be black skin cancer, but fortunately at an early stage so that no further treatment was needed after removal. I am so incredibly grateful!”

Mrs. G.H.B.

“For a long time, I never found the courage to show my birthmark, which had grown over the years. It took some time before I became aware of the online offer. The first consultation was very nice and and the whole USZ team caring.”

Mrs. M.O.

“While on vacation, I noticed an unusual “pimple” on my forehead. I was very worried. During my internet research, I came across the online dermatologist at the USZ, took a few photos and after just 2 hours I received a detailed report with a suspected diagnosis, suggested treatment and prognosis. A very practical and helpful service!”

Mrs. K.R.
