Dr. Margaret Lally Joins DermatologistOnCall(R), Providing Online Dermatological Care to Patients in Pennsylvania

Dr. Margaret Lally joins DermatologistOnCall, a growing network of board-certified dermatologists nationwide, providing patients with dermatological care using a smartphone, tablet or computer.

With a shortage of board-certified dermatologists in the U.S., some patients wait up to three months or longer for in-office appointments. Additionally, of the more than 100 million dermatological conditions and diseases diagnosed each year in the U.S., only 35 million are treated by board-certified dermatologists, while 65 million are treated by primary care physicians, walk-in medical providers or via over-the-counter medications. Powered by Iagnosis, DermatologistOnCall, the nation’s leader in online dermatology, connects patients online to board-certified dermatologists.

“Our website application makes it more convenient than ever for patients to access DermatologistOnCall, especially in today’s digital age,” said Dr. Mark P. Seraly, board-certified dermatologist and DermatologistOnCall Founder. “Kids don’t have to miss school and parents won’t miss work to initiate an online visit for a variety of conditions like acne, rosacea, psoriasis, or suspicious moles.”

To use the service, patients simply visit DermatologistOnCall.com to provide a brief medical history, information about their condition and upload photos. After review, the dermatologist provides a diagnosis, comprehensive treatment plan including necessary prescriptions within 24 hours on average. When medically necessary, the patient will be referred for an in-office visit. Among the more than 3,000 conditions for which patients access the system are acne, dermatitis, eczema, rosacea, shingles, melanoma and other skin cancers. Online visits with DermatologistOnCall.com are a covered benefit for Highmark Commercial Insurance Members in Pennsylvania.

Dr. Lally is a board-certified dermatologist in private practice since 1989. She earned her undergraduate degree from the University of Notre Dame and attended the University of Pittsburgh Medical School. She completed a residency in

dermatology at the University of Pittsburgh/UPMC Health System. Her focus is on general pediatric and adult dermatology. Dr. Lally has been a member of UMPC St. Margaret medical staff since 1990. She volunteers with its family practice residency program educating residents who rotate through her office and has been named one of Pittsburgh’s Top Docs on three occasions.

“DermatologistOnCall is a unique offering to patients to receive timely attention in a convenient , confidential and effective way ‘virtually,’” said Dr. Lally. “I see it as a huge bonus to youth in school, working parents and traveling patients with limited time to spare. Additionally, the 24/7 availability is a win/win for patients with acute issues. Go to the experts in skin first and save time, money and worry.”

Dr. Seraly added, “We are very excited to add Dr. Lally to our network, allowing us to provide service to more and more U.S. consumers.”
