IF YOU DELAYED YOUR SKIN CHECK because of the Covid-19 shutdown, now is a good time to reschedule. Hudson Dermatology is operating a near-normal schedule and is ready to see you, with all appropriate protections in place. Let's stay on top of your regular skin health routine. (Have you been waiting for that cosmetic touch-up? We're now doing those too.) Message us or call (845) 473-2350 for more information or an appointment. And if you or your friends have learned that your regular dermatologist is retiring or closing their practice, please know that Hudson Derm welcomes new patients and accepts most insurance. Our board-certified dermatologists and other expert providers are ready to offer the best possible care.

HUDSON DERMATOLOGY IS OPEN, and we're moving gradually toward restoring our in-office services to normal. We've added a day in Fishkill with Dr. Julie Fridlington on Thursday, and as June begins, Dr. Hendrik Uyttendaele, P.A. Kristina Carr and P.A. Karl Kruszynski will start seeing patients in our offices again. More cosmetic services are available as well. For an appointment, message us or call (845) 473-2350. We follow strict routines to provide the safest possible environm...ent for our patients and staff. Face masks are required for all staff and visitors, and you can be called directly to an exam room from your car, to bypass the waiting room if you wish. You can minimize the check-in experience by filling out your paperwork in advance and making your copay online on our website. We look forward to seeing you again soon, in person or online. In the meantime, please stay safe.

HUDSON DERMATOLOGY IS OPEN. We continue to provide virtual online visits and have again expanded our office hours, following strict routines to provide the safest possible environment for our patients and staff. Hundreds of patients have visited us virtually by FaceTime or Skype for non-urgent issues like suspicious spots, minor skin problems, rashes, follow-up care and prescription refills. Increasing numbers are seeing us in person for conditions that are difficult to trea...t remotely. You can visit hudsondermatology.com/telederm to learn more, and message us or call (845) 473-2350 for an appointment. Hudson Dermatology remains committed to giving our patients the highest quality care available, especially during this health crisis. Please stay safe and follow the guidelines for social distancing, hand-washing, wearing face masks and reducing transmission of the virus. We look forward to seeing you again soon, in person or online.

Saturday often feels a lot like the rest of the week these days. But in case it helps with your schedule: Hudson Dermatology is open for telederm sessions tomorrow, Saturday, May 15. It's great for minor skin problems like acne, rashes, itches and weird spots. You can use FaceTime, Skype or Zoom and it will be covered by your insurance like an office visit. Message us on Facebook or give us a call at (845) 473-2350 and we'll take it from there.

Hudson Dermatology has expanded its office hours and adopted additional procedures to treat our patients safely during the Covid-19 pandemic. We also continue to provide virtual visits. Please visit http://hudsondermatology.com/telederm for more information.

If it feels like Zoom spotlights every blemish on your face, we can help. Using FaceTime, Skype or Zoom, a Hudson Dermatology provider can make an accurate assessment of your skin condition and provide a targeted treatment plan, including cleansing routines, prescription medications and non-prescription solutions. Your health insurance will cover the session as it would an office visit, and some health insurers, including MVP and CDPHP, are even waiving the copay during the ...Covid-19 crisis. To see if a virtual appointment can help you, or for more information, please message us or call (845) 473-2350. Let's work together to get the clear skin you deserve.

Dermatologists are seeing conditions like "Covid Toe" and skin rashes or mottling that appear to be linked to exposure to the Covid virus, particularly among teenagers and young adults. Younger people tend to have milder Covid symptoms, but they can still pass it on to others who are less resistant. Hudson Dermatology's new telederm service can examine unusual symptoms like these and offer advice -- without your having to leave home. For an appointment, message us or call (845) 473-2350. Stay healthy!

Our new telemedicine service can jump-start the process of finding an individually designed solution. For more information, visit our website at hudsondermatology.com/hairloss.

For the safety of our patients and our staff, and in line with New York rules, those visiting Hudson Dermatology's offices must wear a face mask. If you haven't got one, this short video will tell you how to make one, no sewing required. Keep in mind that we provide virtual visits for those who don't need in-office care. (See our Facebook page or http://hudsondermatology.com/telederm for more details.) Thanks for helping us stem the spread of the coronavirus.
