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

Dr. Justin Vujevich 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.

He continued at the University of Miami Department of Dermatology, conducting cosmetic dermatology research under the mentorship of cosmetic dermatologist, Dr. Leslie Baumann. Dr. Vujevich then completed his dermatology residency at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. Dr. Vujevich is a fellow of the American Board of Dermatology and Fellow Member of the American College of Mohs Surgery.
