ABOUT THIS CARE TYPE

What to know before your visit

Some uncomplicated skin concerns may be suitable for general telehealth care. More complex cases may require a dermatologist, better imaging or an in-person exam. Prescription skincare questionnaires and specialist video visits are distinct services.

We do not provide medical care, collect your symptoms or access live clinician calendars. Availability and eligibility are confirmed on the provider’s site.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Questions to ask before you book

Is a general online doctor a dermatologist?

No. A primary-care doctor may evaluate some skin concerns, but is not automatically a board-certified dermatologist.

Do I upload skin photos here?

No. Appointments.live does not accept photos or medical history.

This directory is educational, not clinical advice. For a medical emergency in the United States, call 911. For mental health crisis support, call or text 988.
