ZocDoc Adds Dermatologists To Service Offering; Shows Part of Business Plan

Appointment planning and physician review service ZocDoc continues to expand their offering. Today they are announcing that dermatologists are now available in the ZocDoc system. From what I understand, getting an appointment with a dermatologist can take weeks. ZocDoc shows you who is available same-day and next-day along with booking appointments with your normal dermatologist. The service is currently offered in NYC only.

Dermatologists are an important part of the ZocDoc system because this is one of the areas they are monetizing. They don’t charge any fees for primary care doctors, only for specialists. Some of the services include: skin cancer examinations, acne treatment, mole inspections, and laser hair removal as well as Botox and collagen injections.

When I signed up for the Freelancer’s Union insurance recently, I used ZocDoc to help me pick a primary care doctor. The reviews are really solid and I feel more confident with them since the reviews come from actual patients so there’s no padding. If you are new to ZocDoc, check out their video demo below.
