E-Visits with UPMC Dermatology
You can engage with Dr. English and his UPMC leading dermatology team with eDermatology, a type of E-Visit. To start an E-Visit, you will need to log in to your MyUPMC* account, complete a questionnaire telling us about your symptoms, upload photos, and one of UPMC's Dermatology providers will get back to you with professional medical advice, a diagnosis, and treatment plan within three business days. Each submission should focus on a single skin concern opposed to a request for a full-body skin cancer screening.

Please note: E-Visits with UPMC Dermatology are not a video visit or an in-person office visit. Visit the eDermatology website to learn more.

      I felt more like a science problem that had the inconvenience of a person attached than a patient per se. I'm pretty conversant in medicine and wasn't included in discussion of diagnosis, and felt like I had relatively little agency as they decided to do things like take a biopsy.

      Like every one there was phenomenal. They listened to me, and talked to me like it was happening to my body and didn't treat me like I was too stupid to understand my body. They were all very good. I have had a lot of really bad experiences in specialists office, and this was a good experiance.
