Their dedication to providing the best care possible to each and every patient, and the kindness and compassion our nurses have shown to them and their families during these incredibly difficult times, are constant reminders of what it means to have a true passion for improving the lives of others. Our communities are very proud of our healthcare heroes. Let’s continue to celebrate the accomplishment of our nurses! ColumbiaDoctors

In an effort to provide dermatology care to patients at home during COVID-19 Columbia University Medical Center had launched a robust Telehealth system so patients can see a dermatologist from any location. There are no barriers to being seen across state lines so anyone across the country can call for an appointment during the crisis and they should be covered by insurance. The can be verified prior to scheduling as well. If anyone needs a dermatologist at this time Columbia University is available at 212-326-8465.
