Philosophy

With a growing telehealth practice that spans across the country, board-certified dermatologist Dr. Anna Chacon is in the unique position of being able to treat her patients from anywhere in the nation and beyond. "I'm most proud of the fact that I am licensed in 50 states and three U.S. territories and can see my patients anywhere. I'm able to cater to their needs and schedules by accommodating same-day appointments, evenings and holidays." In addition to virtual visits that cover all aspects of dermatology, she also provides culturally-sensitive, high-quality dermatologic care to indigenous patients in hard-to-reach rural areas. "Indigenous dermatology involves more than just diagnosing and treating skin concerns," she explains. "With these previously underserved communities, there must be a respect and understanding for their culture, as well as providing education and awareness of health care inequalities that have existed for a long time." Meeting the needs of patients from coast to coast, Dr. Chacon represents the future of medicine with personal concierge-style, accessible care.

A Minute With

1

Describe your doctor-patient relationship dynamic.

Patients have symptoms 24 hours a day and we're here at all hours. There won't be an "I can't get a hold of your office or no one's picking up," situation. We're here on Thanksgiving, we're here on the weekends and we’re here when you need us.

2

Which aesthetic concerns do you find yourself treating the most?

Acne, hyperpigmentation, aging concerns and hair loss.

3

Which medical myth do you hear most often from patients?

That insurance will cover everything. In terms of virtual care, we are very reasonably priced for patients. Patients often think they should go to someone in their insurance network because they will pay less, however that's not always the case. We believe in transparency and so we don't currently take insurance because it doesn't always cover virtual care, but we keep our fees accessible and affordable for round-the-clock, concierge-style care.

4

How do you manage patient expectations?

With open communication and continued dialog to ensure I'm providing the care that patients expect and need. I listen to the patient to see what they want and try to give them exactly what they need if it's safe and suited for their condition. If they're able to produce information or find an option that supports what they want, even if it's not mainstream or common, then I'm willing to go along with them on that journey to finding the solution that works.

5

Which dermatological advancements are most excited about right now?

Longer-lasting neurotoxin injections and evolving telehealth laws.
