The MyDermaCare method
How Dr Philipp Gussek assesses your case
At MyDermaCare, Dr Philipp Gussek reviews your case individually. He needs two things from you: answers to a clinical questionnaire and three photographs of the affected area from several angles, in good light.
Dermatology is a visual specialty. A sharp photograph preserves the detail that matters and can be reviewed with time; the questionnaire captures your history in writing, at your pace. That way the doctor reaches the assessment with everything in front of them.
If something is missing, Dr Philipp Gussek will ask for another photograph via patient-area messages before closing the assessment, at no extra cost.
You then receive the report with the assessment and treatment plan, and have several days of messaging to ask questions without booking another appointment.
This is how he worked in Leipzig, where he helped create the university hospital’s remote assessment system.
