Technology, creativity, and networking can make this quick and affordable. This company created a website that is basically an online clinic. Patients can upload photos of their dermatological concerns and a doctor addresses it within 24 hours. As noted by Lewis (2018), it is difficult to access timely and quality dermatological care. Resources are not adequately used as one-third of primary care visits are about dermatology concerns. ]]> 2018-02-26 01:44:53 UTC https://padlet.com/atellz84/tl1r5gy5su4l/wish/235186210 atellz84 https://padlet.com/atellz84/tl1r5gy5su4l/wish/235188913 2018-02-26 01:58:05 UTC https://padlet.com/atellz84/tl1r5gy5su4l/wish/235188913 atellz84 https://padlet.com/atellz84/tl1r5gy5su4l/wish/235188982 •Potential serious issues could be missed

While this might need to be perfected and adequately regulated I believe it is something valuable despite Bergmo (2009), concluding that telemedicine is largely ineffective.  ]]> 2018-02-26 02:07:50 UTC https://padlet.com/atellz84/tl1r5gy5su4l/wish/235190174 atellz84 https://padlet.com/atellz84/tl1r5gy5su4l/wish/235190762 2018-02-26 02:12:54 UTC https://padlet.com/atellz84/tl1r5gy5su4l/wish/235190762 atellz84 https://padlet.com/atellz84/tl1r5gy5su4l/wish/235190849 2018-02-26 02:13:33 UTC https://padlet.com/atellz84/tl1r5gy5su4l/wish/235190849 atellz84 https://padlet.com/atellz84/tl1r5gy5su4l/wish/235191016 2018-02-26 02:14:36 UTC https://padlet.com/atellz84/tl1r5gy5su4l/wish/235191016 atellz84 https://padlet.com/atellz84/tl1r5gy5su4l/wish/235191097 2018-02-26 02:15:10 UTC https://padlet.com/atellz84/tl1r5gy5su4l/wish/235191097 atellz84 https://padlet.com/atellz84/tl1r5gy5su4l/wish/235191169 Bergmo, T.
