The consultation is carried out as a collaborative team approach. The visit begins with a comprehensive nurse consultation, during which the medical history is collected, skin changes are assessed, and the necessary clinical photographs are taken. Dr Katri Helena Hackländer then reviews the collected information remotely from Germany as a teledermatologist, establishes the diagnosis, prescribes treatment and medications if necessary, and prepares an individual treatment plan with further recommendations.
If you are concerned about any skin problem, do not delay seeking help. We offer professional, modern dermatological care right here on Saaremaa.
