Use case · 09

Dermatology clinics, with the photo evidence and clinical review trail the work actually needs.

Photo-led intake, standardised image angles, signed clinical assessment and a follow-up cadence per condition — built for clinician-led dermatology, not cosmetic-only.

Photo intake. Standardised angles. Signed assessment. Per-condition recall.

Dermatology is photo-led and review-led. A mole or condition photo, a structured history, a clinician's assessment, and a recall on the cadence the condition needs. PracticeWise captures all four with one patient record.

01 · End-to-end workflow

From first contact to follow-up.

Status, owner and next action visible at every step — to the patient, the admin and the clinician.

01

Photo-led intake

Patient uploads condition photos against standardised angle prompts (close, mid, wide) with ruler-scale where indicated. Structured history captured in the same session.

02

Pre-review verification

Admin verifies photo quality and history completeness before the case enters the clinician queue. Incomplete cases auto-prompt the patient.

03

Clinician assessment

Dermatologist reviews photos and history. Signed assessment recorded with clinical reasoning, recommended action and GMC reference.

04

Treatment plan or referral

Prescription, topical plan or in-person referral generated from the signed assessment; patient receives a plain-language summary.

05

Condition-specific follow-up

Recall cadence configured per condition — mole monitoring at 6 or 12 months, acne review at 8–12 weeks, eczema check-ins on the clinic's schedule.

02 · Regulatory considerations

The clauses your inspector reads first.

Specific to dermatology & skin clinics — configured into the workflow above, not pinned as an afterthought.

Photo evidence retention

Intake photos retained against the assessment for the period your governance policy requires, so future reviews can compare against the original record.

Same-session signing

Dermatologist assessments are signed in-session, not retro-fitted; the audit log captures the sign timestamp explicitly.

Referral-pathway audit

Cases routed to in-person review or to a specialist are captured in the audit log with the routing reason, not handled out-of-band.

GP-letter handoff

Where indicated, a letter to the patient's NHS GP is generated from the signed assessment and queued for clinician sign-off.

Operator quote

Same-session signing was the unlock. We stopped having Monday-morning catch-up sessions because every assessment is signed before the dermatologist closes the case.
