Why Choose Doctor247?

A dermatology service designed around Irish patients — built for convenience, speed, privacy and clinical quality.

Multiple Consultation Options

Choose the way you'd like to speak with your online dermatologist — whether that's a secure video call for a face-to-face visual assessment, a phone consultation if you prefer audio only, or a detailed symptom form if certain areas aren't visible during the call.

This flexibility means your skin doctor has the information needed for a thorough assessment and the right treatment guidance — without you leaving home.

Private, Encrypted Consultations

Every dermatology consultation takes place on a fully encrypted platform that meets strict GDPR standards. Your personal health information stays confidential at all times, protected both in transmission and storage.

That privacy lets you discuss sensitive skin concerns openly, with confidence that your information is safeguarded with industry-leading security.

Qualified Irish Dermatology Specialists

All of our dermatology doctors are registered with the Irish Medical Council the official body that upholds Ireland's standards of medical practice. Our specialists deliver care aligned with Ireland's healthcare regulations, local treatment protocols and the specific needs of Irish patients.

Quick Electronic Prescriptions & Referrals

Managing your skin medication becomes effortless. During the consultation, your online dermatologist can issue an electronic prescription immediately and transmit it securely to the pharmacy of your choice so you can collect medication without waiting for a paper script.

If your case calls for further specialist care, electronic referrals are sent through the same streamlined channel, keeping your treatment moving forward with reliability.

Flexible Access Around the Clock

Skin flare-ups rarely happen during clinic hours. Doctor247 offers dermatology consultations every day of the week including evenings and weekends so you don't have to wait for standard office hours to get professional guidance on a rash, breakout or sudden skin change.

Transparent Pricing from €45

Consultation fees start at an affordable €45 clearly displayed up front with no hidden charges or surprise costs. Pay securely online at the time of booking via credit card, so you always know exactly what to expect.

Skin Conditions Assessed Online

Our dermatology team evaluates a wide range of common and complex skin conditions, offering expert assessments and personalised treatment plans. Whether you're managing a persistent rash or noticing new changes in your skin, get timely specialist input without the long waits of traditional clinics.

Eczema & Dermatitis

Atopic dermatitis, contact dermatitis and seborrheic eczema cause dry, itchy, red skin that can become inflamed or cracked. Taking your full history into account, our doctors identify triggers and recommend soothing topical steroids, moisturisers and practical lifestyle modifications to control flare-ups and improve comfort.

Fungal Infections

Common fungal infections like athlete's foot, ringworm and yeast infections are easily assessed online. Travelling to see a skin doctor isn't necessary our dermatology GPs prescribe effective antifungal creams or oral medications with the prescription sent straight to your pharmacy.

Hair & Scalp Conditions

Your scalp deserves the same attention as your skin. We address dandruff, seborrheic dermatitis and alopecia (hair loss) through online consultations, recommending appropriate interventions — from medicated shampoos to steroid treatments — depending on the diagnosis.

Mole Assessment & Suspicious Lesions

If you notice unexplained or suspicious moles, our doctors conduct an initial evaluation during your consultation. Any growth that appears suspicious or potentially cancerous is promptly referred to dermatology specialists for biopsy and further care. For lesions that need only simple skincare or no intervention, you'll be told clearly so you can move forward with confidence.

Acne & Acne Scarring

Acne affects individuals of all ages appearing as pimples, blackheads and inflammation. Our skin doctors tailor treatment specifically for you, from topical creams and gels to oral medications that reduce breakouts and ease inflammation. Where acne scarring occurs, we offer personalised advice on the best management strategies and refer you to specialists if further care is needed.

Psoriasis Management

Dedicated support for managing psoriasis a long-term condition causing thick, scaly patches. Treatment may involve topical therapies like corticosteroids or vitamin D derivatives, referrals for phototherapy, or systemic medications to reduce inflammation and slow excessive skin cell growth. Every plan is made for your individual situation, helping manage symptoms and improve overall skin appearance.

Allergic Reactions & Rashes

For conditions like urticaria (hives) or allergic contact rashes, we provide online dermatology consultations with well-explained guidance to relieve itching and manage symptoms. You may be prescribed antihistamines or given personalised advice on topical therapies suited to your case.

Pigmentation Disorders & Sun Damage

We evaluate and manage pigmentation changes including melasma and age spots, along with sun-induced damage. Our dermatologists provide clear advice on sun protection and targeted treatment options to maintain long-term skin health and appearance.

How Doctor247's Dermatology Service Stands Out

Eight clinical and service standards that place our online dermatology care above a typical teledermatology platform.

IMC-Registered Skin Doctors Only

Every dermatology GP on our platform is registered with the Irish Medical Council, meaning your diagnosis and treatment come from a doctor verified to Ireland's national medical standards not an overseas general service.

Aligned with Irish Healthcare Protocols

Treatment plans are built around local healthcare regulations, medication availability, pharmacy systems and the specific needs of patients living in Ireland — from Dublin to Donegal, Cork to Galway.

Fully GDPR-Compliant Platform

Encrypted end-to-end, with strict confidentiality protocols and storage that meets Ireland's data protection requirements so sensitive skin concerns can be discussed with total privacy.

Clear, Understandable Communication

Our dermatologists take time to explain your condition, treatment options and expected outcomes in straightforward language helping you make informed decisions and manage treatments at home with confidence.

Specialist Training in Skin Health

Our dermatology GPs have specialist training in skin health, so the advice and treatment plans you receive are tailored to your skin never generalised GP-style care applied to dermatology.

Same-Day Prescriptions

Electronic prescriptions are issued during the consultation itself and transmitted securely to your chosen pharmacy within minutes so there's no back-and-forth after your appointment.

Empathetic, Patient-Centred Approach

Skin conditions deeply affect confidence and wellbeing. Our doctors approach every consultation with empathy and attentiveness, making sure care fits your lifestyle and preferences not just your diagnosis.

7-Day Availability, No Waiting Lists

Consultations are available every day of the week, including evenings and weekends meaning skin concerns get addressed when they arise, not weeks later on a traditional waiting list.

This combination of IMC-verified specialists, Ireland-specific protocols, and accessible technology is what makes Doctor247 a trusted leader in online dermatology care across Ireland.

Transparent Pricing — Dermatology Care You Can Budget For

At Doctor247, clarity on cost is part of the care. Our dermatology consultation fees start competitively at an affordable €45, putting expert skin care within reach for everyone across Ireland.

Payment is processed securely online at the time of booking using trusted methods including credit card and PayPal. No hidden fees, no surprise charges at the end of the consultation. You plan your treatment confidently, without financial stress.

Compared to traditional face-to-face dermatology visits — which often involve travel costs, time off work and longer waiting lists — our online consultations deliver excellent value without compromising clinical standards.

Care Built Around You — With Empathy & Privacy at the Core

Dermatology conditions can deeply impact your confidence and day-to-day wellbeing. That's why our doctors approach every consultation with genuine empathy and attentiveness not just as a checklist of symptoms.

Effective communication matters as much as the diagnosis itself. Our dermatologists take time to explain your condition, the options available and what to expect in plain, easy-to-understand language. This helps you make informed choices and manage treatments at home with confidence.

All consultations happen on fully encrypted, GDPR-compliant platforms, with strict confidentiality rules. You can discuss sensitive skin concerns openly knowing your personal health information is protected at the highest level.

How to Book an Online Doctor Appointment at Doctor247

We have deliberately stripped the booking process down to four steps because the whole point of a digital health service is that accessing primary care should take less effort than ordering groceries, and patients who feel unwell rarely have the patience for complicated forms and multi-step registrations.

Choose the Consultation That Matches Your Needs

Select from our service menu based on what you actually need, whether that is a standard online GP consultation, a dermatology review, a mental health conversation, a sick leave appointment, a treatment refill, or any of our specialist categories, because selecting the correct service at the start ensures your appointment follows the right clinical pathway from the first minute of the call.

Pick a Time That Works for You

Our live calendar displays real availability across the next several days so you can choose morning, afternoon, evening, late-night, or weekend slots depending on what fits your schedule, and the slot locks in the moment you select it so there is no risk of double-booking or losing your preferred time while you complete the rest of the process.

Share the Details Your Doctor Needs

A short clinical intake form captures your name, date of birth, current symptoms, relevant medical history, and preferred pharmacy for any prescriptions, which gives your GP a head start on understanding your situation before the consultation begins so that the time you spend speaking with them goes toward care rather than admin.

Speak With Your Doctor and Receive Your Treatment

At the scheduled time your GP connects with you by phone or video, conducts a thorough clinical assessment based on the intake information and the live conversation, and then delivers your treatment plan, issues any prescriptions directly to your chosen pharmacy through Healthmail, provides referral letters and medical certificates as needed, and confirms any follow-up that makes clinical sense — all handled electronically before the call ends.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before you book. Can't find your answer? Give us a call.

If a lesion looks suspicious, we refer you directly to a specialist for biopsy.

Can I show the doctor areas that are not visible in the photos?

Yes. During your secure video consultation you can show your skin doctor any area directly on camera. If a visual check is limited during the call for any reason lighting, location, or an area that's hard to film you can complete a detailed symptom form instead. This covers onset, triggers, history and affected regions, allowing a thorough assessment and accurate guidance.

How quickly will I receive my prescription?

Electronic prescriptions are issued during the consultation itself and transmitted securely to the pharmacy of your choice within minutes. You can collect your medication the same day no paper script, no posting, no delay.

How much does an online dermatology consultation cost in Ireland?

Our dermatology consultations start at €45. The price is clearly shown before you confirm your booking no hidden fees, no surprise charges. Payment is taken securely at booking via credit card or PayPal.

Are Doctor247 dermatologists registered with the Irish Medical Council?

Yes every dermatology doctor on our platform is fully registered with the Irish Medical Council (IMC), the official body overseeing medical practice in Ireland.

Can I have a consultation for my child?

For most common conditions, yes. Our Irish-registered GPs provide the same standard of care you'd expect in a clinic reviewing symptoms, issuing prescriptions, giving referrals, and providing sick notes. If in-person examination is required, your doctor will arrange a home visit or refer you to the appropriate specialist.
