Patient Education Handouts Now Offered Online by Dermatology Partners of Western New York

Dec. 23, 2011 - PRLog -- Dermatology Partners offers practical health information on its website that supports the needs of its patients and members of the community.  The practice provides comprehensive dermatology services in the Western New York area with offices in Rochester and Canandaigua.  The Dermatologists at Dermatology Partners are all Board Certified by the American Board of Dermatology. Their team of highly trained Dermatologists and their courteous office staff provide excellent care for their patients.

Surveys have shown that U.S. adults frequently search online for health information, but are frustrated by the large volume of information they find from questionable sources. A majority of health consumers state that they would prefer to get that information directly from their own doctor. Unfortunately, a majority of physicians report finding it difficult to provide education during an office visit and most medical practice websites lack health information.

Dermatology Partners understands the importance of patient education (http://www.vivacare.com) and has taken measures to improve clinical care and patient satisfaction. The practice now provides its patients with convenient, online access to educational resources on their practice website.

Their dermatologists are physicians specially trained in diagnosing and treating any condition involving the skin, as well as disorders of the hair, nails or mucous membranes. To remain abreast of the latest advances in dermatology, the physicians and staff at Dermatology Partners participate regularly in continuing medical education programs and seminars to provide the most up-to-date and effective care available.

The physicians at Dermatology Partners (http://dermpartnerswny.com/services/index.html) show their commitment to patient care by making health information available online regarding the conditions they treat (acne, actinic keratoses, rosacea psoriasis, and skin cancer), the procedures they perform (Botox, Dermal Fillers, Mohs Surgery), and the medications they prescribe.
