more I have been a user of this app for >3 years from dermatology residency to clinical practice as a board-certified dermatologist. Very easy to navigate and nearly comprehensive listing of dermatological disease. Whether you are using it as a learning tool (med student, resident) or clinical assistant (ED, IM, dermatology, etc.) it is a “must have” if you encounter cutaneous disease in practice.I use the app multiple times a day and use it to assist with diagnosis, differentials, quick treatment guide, and most importantly as an education tool for the patient. I often will pull up a known diagnosis and show the patient similar photos to their condition from the expansive photo bank to help support a diagnosis. Furthermore, i frequently print out patient handouts for patients so that they have a reliable and physician-vetted document to help answer any questions that remain after our patient encounter.All in all, this is the single best and most used app I use in clinical practice as a dermatologist. Very useful for med students to experienced physicians and I highly recommend.

VisualDx was recommended to me by multiple colleagues. I am a new PA and have found this app to be very helpful. Many pictures, descriptions of conditions, differentials, best tests, tx options. The important things you need to know are there. Also, when looking up conditions, you are accumulating CME for every search. Love the app. Wish they had a better setup for their quizzes for dermatology, as they just have a photo, and is sometimes hard to see what body area you are even looking at. 5/5

I used this app daily in my derm residency. It was incredibly helpful to put in a morphology and build a differential diagnosis in my head and then see what else I should be thinking about or consider based on the app findings. There are tons of Kodachromes, clinical pearls, treatment guidelines, and even dermpath images at the tip of your fingers. I recommend VisualDx to everyone. I was lucky enough to have my residency buy the subscription, check with your program and if they don’t have it - con them into it lol

This app is the holy grail for derm residents and for general medicine. I use it multiple times a day in my clinic and on consults. It has the peer reviewed literature, excellent photos, and even treatment plans with doses. It’s your one stop shop for all things dermatology. Even the “build a diagnosis” part is helpful for my differential. It’s not only helpful for diagnosis on the spot, but also for teaching about conditions. I really appreciate the incorporation of Skin of Color images and text. They did a fabulous job with this.

Bug fixes and improvements
8.12.0 6d ago
We've made it faster to build and refine a differential - even when the patient findings are hard to pin down.
• Guided Workups: Not sure how to describe a lesion? Step-by-step prompts for skin, oral, eye, nail, and hair/scalp.
• More refined "Consider First": Differential results are shorter, giving you a more targeted starting point for any patient case.
• CompareView on mobile: Compare individual diagnoses side by side, pulled straight from diagnosis text or a custom differential.
• Dynamic Differential: Remove diagnoses you've ruled out, or add ones to a working set to view in CompareView.
• Mobile single sign-on: Just enter your email and sign in with your institution's credentials (requires institution setup).
As always, this release includes performance improvements and bug fixes. Questions or feedback? We'd love to hear from you.
