Telemedicine
We are happy to announce that we are offering teledermatology visits. Online teledermatology visits are web-based, HIPAA compliant, real time visits with both audio and video capabilities. We can diagnose and treat many issues directly through our telemedicine platform. For other issues, we can determine if an office visit is needed. If you have skincare needs, including routine follow-up appointments, please reach out to our office to schedule an appointment. These visits are covered by most insurance plans.
New patients and patients needing updated paperwork can complete paperwork online.
To schedule a visit please call us at
952-920-3808.
Cosmetic consultations are now available through our telemedicine platform. Consultations will not be billed through insurance and are a $50 charge at time of service. This is a great way to update your skincare routine and learn what products are best for you. We will also mail any product to your home for no fee with a $50 minimum. Call us at 952-920-3808 to schedule a consultation.
