'Dermatologist near me', anywhere in Australia
20 January 2020 · Toni Corbett
Australians searching for a 'dermatologist near me' quickly discover that most specialist Dermatologists practise in the major cities and metropolitan centres. For regional patients, that has traditionally meant extensive travel, days off work, and all the costs that come with both.
That situation has changed. Teledermatologist brings the specialist to you, wherever you are in Australia, in three ways:
- At your local medical centre, with a GP referral, consulting alongside your own GP or practice nurse
- From home, with a GP referral, where Medicare rebates may apply
- Direct, without a referral, for busy people who want straightforward access to an FACD Dermatologist by video (no Medicare rebate applies without a referral)
How it works
Before your consultation you receive confirmation of the process and what to prepare. Your Dermatologist reviews your photos and history, then meets you by secure video to assess your condition, provide a diagnosis, and prescribe treatment where appropriate.
