According to the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD), approximately 9,500 people in the U.S. are diagnosed with skin cancer every day. Therefore, the chances of developing skin cancer are higher than ever. It’s critical to catch melanoma and other skin cancers early.
What should and can you do if you have a mole, scar, freckle or pimple that looks abnormal?
This article aims to help you find the best dermatologists and most proven skin cancer spot checks, looking at rashes, eczema, moles and more in Boca Raton, Florida.
So where can you find the best dermatologist screening in Boca Raton, Florida.
Modern Ritual Health – Dermatology Provider
Modern Ritual offers an entirely different solution than other clinics in the area.
We allow you to have a mole, rash or lesion checked without the complicated waiting times of a traditional dermatology appointment.
How’s that possible?
The answer lies in Modern Ritual’s Dermatology Spot Check. Modern Ritual works with pharmacies, primary care providers and in-home care takers to offer a dermatology consultation that takes 10 minutes from start to finish, with feedback from a dermatologist in less than 48 hours.
Modern Ritual provides these locations with a dermascope, a small camera device that takes high-resolution photos of patient's skin that can help increase photo accuracy from 40% up to 95%. These cameras attach magnetically to a standard smartphone, tablet or Ipad.
How can I get an appointment with a Modern Ritual Dermatology provider?
The process is very easy.
-
Click on this page to find a location that is closest to you. Simply type in your zip code and follow the instructions on the page (we'll discuss pricing later!)
-
You'll either go into a pharmacy, primary care office or urgent care center who will take an image of your skin using a highly specialized camera called a dermascope, and will securely submit that photo to a top dermatologist for their review
- You will hear back on your results and recommendation within 2 days or less.
Now you might think: “Why wouldn’t I just use my smartphone and teladoc? Is there any difference?” As you can see in the photo below, there is a big difference between a dermascope and a regular smartphone image.
What if I’m not from Boca Raton?
Modern Ritual is available anywhere in Florida. We are available in several other states as well.

-
If you don’t mind going to the clinic, you can choose any of the ones we mentioned since they all have very strong ratings. However, if you lack insurance or cannot be seen within 3 weeks or live far away, it can be challenging.
