What is dermago?

Given the technological advances and increased reliability of smartphones, asynchronous medicine allows for the exchange of information without the constraint of scheduling a virtual or physical session, giving patients and physicians more control over their consultation. This approach to consultation is patient-centered, emphasizing the essence of the interaction, regardless of time and place, allowing for a quick, clear and accurate diagnosis.

Dermago's team of doctors and nurses work together to provide the care you need using an array of state-of-the-art tools that have developed an expertise in identifying and treating skin conditions online. Their professionalism and speed of treatment has brought relief to thousands of patients.
