Care without the long wait

Many people wait months to see a dermatologist in Canada. They need a referral first, and then a place on a waiting list. Meanwhile their skin gets worse, and their worry grows.

We built Modern Dermatology to shorten that path. More than 1,500 patients have trusted us with their skin.

No referral needed

You can start without a referral or a family doctor. You do not need to book an appointment first. You complete a questionnaire and send photos from home.

With your consent, we send your plan to your family doctor if you have one. Your care stays connected.

A fast review

A Canadian-licensed medical professional reviews your symptoms, photos and health history online.

Speed does not mean a shortcut. Your clinician reads your history and looks at your photos before they choose a treatment. If photos are not enough, they book a video consultation.

Canadian-licensed professionals

Every person who reviews your case is a Canadian-licensed medical professional. They follow the rules of their province and their college. You can see their names and credentials on our authors page.

Care in French and in English

You can use Modern Dermatology in French or in English. The site is available in both languages. We believe that you should be able to describe your skin in the language you know best.

Follow-up that does not stop

Treatment for skin takes time. Many treatments need weeks before you see a change. We stay with you for that whole time.

  • Send progress photos.
  • Message your care team.
  • Ask for refills and plan changes.
  • Get help with drug plan forms.

Treatment that fits your skin

Your skin is not a template. Your clinician chooses from proven options and prescribes only when it is appropriate. Some plans start with products that you can buy without a prescription. Explore the conditions we treat and the treatments your clinician may consider.

Clear prices

Each consultation costs CA$175. Medication is billed separately, and we tell you the price before you pay.

What we do not do

Modern Dermatology does not provide emergency care. In an emergency, call 911. If your concern needs an in-person exam, we tell you and say where to go.

Start today

It takes a few minutes to start your assessment. Your clinician takes it from there.
