DermatologistOnCall Launches New Mobile App

DermatologistOnCall launched a new mobile app that it says enables patients to quickly and easily start and complete an online visit with a board-certified dermatologist. The app is free and works with Apple's iPhones and iPads, and Android phones and tablets.

"Our new mobile app makes it more convenient than ever for patients to access DermatologistOnCall, especially in today's digital age," said Dave Zynn, president and CEO of Iagnosis, creators of DermatologistOnCall. "Kids do not have to miss school and parents will not miss work to initiate an online visit for a variety of conditions like acne, rosacea, psoriasis, or suspicious moles."

Individuals who are concerned with a skin, hair, or nail condition can create an account, answer a series of questions, and upload photos of the affected skin area. Among the more than 3,000 conditions for which can patients access the system are acne, cold sores, dermatitis, eczema, hair loss, moles, poison ivy, psoriasis, rosacea, shingles, melanoma and other skin cancers.

Within 24 hours on average, the patient will receive a notification to log back in to the system for a diagnosis and treatment plan, including necessary prescriptions or a recommendation to be seen in office by a dermatologist. This online visit costs $59 per condition.

With thousands of patients already having been treated using this online tool, approximately 98 percent of surveyed patients said they would recommend DermatologistOnCall to a friend or family member.

The DermatologistOnCall patient app, developed and powered by Iagnosis, is available in the iTunes App Store or the Google Play Store or through a link at www.DermatologistOnCall.com.
