David Lortscher, MD

Board-Certified Dermatologist

David Lortscher, MD started out at a dermatology practice in New Mexico. He saw how a person’s skin could have huge social and economic impact on their life — and how many people experienced economic, geographic, and psychological barriers to seeing a dermatologist. That’s why he created Curology in 2014. Since then, David’s helped many more patients online. He still serves as a remote dermatology consultant for rural healthcare clinics in Arizona and New Mexico that lack specialty medical care.

Jasmin Chang once worked in California at the City of San Jose's occupational health center, where many of her patients were firefighters and police officers whose unusual schedules made it difficult to see health care providers. Jasmin encouraged telemedicine among these patients, advocating its benefits in terms of saved costs and time. She’s now excited to be part of Curology and make high quality dermatology products and services available to the general public, uninhibited by insurance companies and high healthcare costs.
