AI Medical Scribe for

Dermatologists

Full-body skin exams, biopsies, and 40-patient clinic days generate more lesion-level detail than any clinician can chart between rooms. Medical Scribe captures location, morphology, and plan for every finding as you verbalize it.

Sample note

What your notes will look like

A real example of the documentation Medical Scribe generates for dermatologists — ready before your patient leaves the room.

Skin Check Ready to copy

Summary

61M - Annual full-body skin exam. History of BCC (left nasal ala, excised 2022). New pigmented lesion left upper back biopsied; multiple actinic keratoses treated with cryotherapy.

Subjective

Presents for annual skin check. Reports a new dark spot on his upper back noticed by his wife 2 months ago, no bleeding or itching. Significant lifetime sun exposure (30 years outdoor construction), rare sunscreen use. No new medications; history of BCC excision 2022 with clear margins.

Objective

  • Full-body skin exam: Fitzpatrick type II, diffuse photodamage
  • Left upper back: 6mm pigmented macule, asymmetric, irregular border, variegated brown-black; dermatoscopy shows atypical pigment network
  • Scalp and dorsal forearms: 6 rough erythematous scaly papules consistent with actinic keratoses
  • Prior excision site left nasal ala: well-healed, no recurrence

Assessment & Plan

  • Atypical pigmented lesion, left upper back - shave biopsy performed today after consent; pathology to follow, patient will be called with results within 2 weeks
  • Actinic keratoses x6 - cryotherapy with liquid nitrogen to scalp and forearms; wound care reviewed
  • Photodamage/skin cancer risk - daily SPF 50, monthly self-examination taught; return 12 months, sooner for changing lesions

Illustrative example. Every note is fully editable, and you control the format — SOAP, DAP, or your own custom template.

Dermatology charting is precision work at production speed

Forty patients, forty notes

Derm clinics run some of the highest visit volumes in medicine — 10-minute slots, procedure add-ons, and a full waiting room leave no time to chart each encounter properly before the next one starts.

Lesion descriptions can't be approximate

A note that says 'lesion on back' is useless at the 6-month follow-up. Size, morphology, color, border, and precise anatomic location have to be captured for every finding — on every patient.

Every biopsy is a follow-up you own

Each shave, punch, and excision needs a documented site, indication, and plan for results — because a lost biopsy isn't a paperwork problem, it's a missed melanoma.

Lesion-level detail

Verbalize the exam, get the documentation

Call out findings the way you would to a human scribe — '6mm pigmented macule, left upper back, irregular border' — and the note captures each lesion's morphology, location, and dermatoscopic impression exactly as you said it.

Procedure capture

Biopsies and treatments documented as they happen

Cryotherapy sites, biopsy locations and technique, and injections spoken during the visit land in the Assessment & Plan with their follow-up — so the pathology callback list matches what actually happened in clinic.

Built for high-volume dermatology clinic

Skin checks, acne and psoriasis follow-ups, biopsy days, and cosmetic consults move fast. Medical Scribe records each encounter — including the findings you narrate during the full-body exam — and drafts the note before you’re in the next room, so a 40-patient day doesn’t end with 40 unfinished charts.

What the note captures

The built-in Dermatologist’s Note follows your charting structure: a Subjective covering the presenting skin complaint, treatment history, and sun-exposure risk factors; an Objective with examination and dermatoscopic findings lesion by lesion; and an Assessment & Plan organized per condition, with treatments, biopsies, lifestyle guidance, and follow-up intervals for each.

Precision you can audit later

In dermatology the note is the baseline: next year’s exam depends on what this year’s note said about that macule. Medical Scribe documents findings only as you stated them — never inferring what a lesion looked like — and you review and sign every note, so the chart stays an exact record of your exam.

Frequently asked questions

Can it document lesion morphology and location accurately?

Yes — from what you verbalize. Describe each finding aloud as you examine, the way you would with an in-room scribe, and the note records size, morphology, distribution, and anatomic site exactly as stated. It never invents exam findings you didn't voice.

Does it capture biopsies and in-office procedures?

Yes. Procedures spoken during the visit — biopsy site and technique, cryotherapy locations, injections — are documented in the Assessment & Plan along with the stated follow-up, so every specimen has a matching record of where it came from and what happens next.

What note format does it produce for dermatology?

The built-in Dermatologist's Note uses the Subjective, Objective, Assessment & Plan structure dermatologists chart in, with problem-by-problem plans. It's one of 280+ templates; SOAP and custom formats are supported, and a custom template takes minutes.

Is patient data secure?

Yes. Medical Scribe is HIPAA compliant, with recordings and notes encrypted in transit and at rest. Notes are drafts until you review and sign them, and it works for in-person and telehealth visits across iOS, Android, Web, Apple Watch, and Mac.
