Whether you’re working on a construction site, in a shop, behind the wheel, or at a desk, skin concerns happen when you least expect them. A rash, eczema flare-up, suspicious mole, or painful skin infection shouldn’t have to wait weeks for treatment.

Teladoc Health Dermatology makes it easier for members to connect with licensed, board-certified dermatologists from the comfort of home. Members can receive expert skin care in 2 business days or less for a dermatology diagnosis, without the hassle of scheduling an in-person appointment.

Real Stories, Real Results

“My dermatologist was completely booked for weeks, and I had a bug bite that looked like it was just getting worse. Teladoc was a lifesaver! I used the app to upload a few pictures of the bite and in a few hours, I had a prescription waiting for me at my pharmacy and a note from the Teladoc doctor about what the problem was. Couldn’t have been easier.

– Anne S.

“It was going to be weeks before I could get in to see a dermatologist in person. The Teladoc dermatologist got back to me the same day with a diagnosis. He gave me an in-depth explanation of my condition, wrote me a prescription and answered all of my questions. So thankful I could get some peace of mind and a resolution without having to wait”
