How Telehealth Works?
Step 1: Schedule Your Appointment
Book your virtual consultation using our online scheduling system or contact our office for assistance.
Step 2: Upload Photos
Prior to your appointment, you may be asked to submit clear photographs of your skin concern. These images help your dermatologist perform a more accurate evaluation.
Step 3: Meet With Your Dermatology Provider
At your scheduled appointment time, connect securely through Zoom using your smartphone, tablet, or computer. During the visit, your dermatologist will review your concerns, discuss treatment options, and answer any questions you may have.
Step 4: Receive Your Personalized Treatment Plan
Following your consultation, a customized treatment plan will be provided. When medically appropriate, prescriptions can be sent electronically to your preferred pharmacy.
University Skin Institute providers are currently licensed in California and New York and can prescribe medications for patients residing in these states.
We may also recommend medical-grade skincare products that can be shipped directly to your home.
