We knew we needed to offer virtual care, but off-the-shelf solutions didn't fit our workflow. Developers.dev built a custom application that feels like it was designed by dermatologists, for dermatologists. It has transformed our practice, and our patients love it. The team was incredibly responsive and understood our needs perfectly.
Dr. Anil Sharma, Owner
A well-regarded multi-location dermatology practice in Australia was struggling with long patient wait times for non-urgent consultations and follow-ups. They wanted to offer virtual "store-and-forward" and real-time video consultations to improve patient convenience and create a new revenue stream.
The clinic needed a custom, secure teledermatology platform that supported both asynchronous (photo-based) and synchronous (video-based) consultations. The solution needed to integrate with their existing practice management system and be compliant with Australian privacy laws.
Handling high-resolution medical imagery securely and efficiently.
Designing a workflow that was intuitive for both patients and physicians.
Integrating with a legacy, on-premise practice management system.
Ensuring compliance with the Australian Privacy Act and other local healthcare regulations.
We provided a dedicated "Healthcare Interoperability Pod" to tackle this custom development project.
We worked closely with the clinic's dermatologists to design a unique "store-and-forward" workflow where patients could securely upload high-resolution images for review.
The platform seamlessly combined secure messaging for asynchronous consultations with scheduled, encrypted HD video calls for real-time appointments.
We built a custom middleware agent to securely connect their cloud-based application with their on-premise practice management system, syncing patient demographics and appointment data.
Our legal and compliance experts ensured the platform's architecture and data handling practices fully complied with Australian regulations.
Developed native iOS and Android apps for the best patient camera experience.
Created a web-based portal for physicians with tools for image annotation and comparison.
Implemented a secure, DICOM-compatible image storage solution on AWS.
Integrated a local Australian payment gateway for patient billing.
Provided a 2-week paid trial period for a small group of patients and doctors to refine the user experience.
Delivered a comprehensive admin panel for the clinic staff to manage users and appointments.
The app created a significant new income stream from virtual consultations.
Many non-urgent cases were handled virtually, freeing up in-clinic appointment slots.
Patients praised the convenience and ease of use, leading to higher retention.
The clinic was able to serve patients in remote and rural areas who couldn't travel to their physical locations.
