Abstract

To the Editor: In the era of COVID-19, dermatology practices have rapidly adopted teledermatology.1,2 Prepandemic research showed physician and patient satisfaction; however, these studies included groups who chose the telemedicine medium.3,4 Pandemic-related restrictions on in-person care catalyzed a broader adoption of telemedicine among both physicians and patients. This study examines the experiences of both groups with teledermatology during the COVID-19 pandemic.
