Make an Appointment

A provider in an appointment with a patient.

To schedule an in-person, virtual, or telephone visit, please call 503-418-3376.

From here, an Access Support Specialist will help you with scheduling. Due to federal privacy regulations, we may not be able to answer health questions over e-mail.

Virtual Spot Checks (email-style appointment) can be submitted at any time. Instructions can be found on our Virtual Skin Cancer Spot Checks page.

Note: OHSU is an academic healthcare institution.  We are committed to the training of the next generation's medical providers. During your visit, you may be seen by trainees in addition to your provider.

Appointment information

You may need a physician referral before scheduling an appointment. We require a referral to establish service for:

  • New patients
  • Patients who have not been seen in three (3) or more years

If you are new to OHSU, you will need to register as a patient before your appointment. Contact registration at 503-494-8505. After registering, please request to be transferred to Dermatology. 

A patient form will be sent to you before your first appointment. Feel free to print out the health history questionnaire, complete, and bring to your appointment. For pediatric patients, please use the pediatric health history questionnaire.

  • Please note:
    • Our appointment cancellation policy is to notify us at least 24 business hours prior to your appointment. A failure to comply with this will result in a no-show appointment. Two or more no-show appointments within a calendar year could result in a dismissal of services.
    • A referral is not required If you have a personal history of melanoma skin cancer (unless your insurance requires it).

For some insurance plans, patients must obtain a referral or authorization prior to care. Failure to do so may result in the insurance not paying for medical services. If you have questions, contact your insurance company.

Note: Our clinic requires referrals for all patients with Oregon Health Plan (Medicaid)

If your insurance requires prior authorization, please contact your primary care provider to begin insurance approval. Have your primary care provider fax the referral and health records to 503-346-6854.

If your insurance requires you to obtain an authorization or referral and you do not have one at the time of the visit, you will need to register as a "self-pay" patient.

If you are not covered by your insurance for this visit, you need to register for your appointment as "self-pay" prior to your appointment. Payment is due at the time of service. Also, pelase be prepared to make any payments or co-payments.

You may qualify for financial assistance. To see if you are eligible, please contact registration 503-494-8505.

  • Billing and Insurance: Confused about the health care billing process? We have resources to help walk you through it. Read more.
  • Financial Assistant Programs: The OHSU Financial and Medicaid Services office provides screening, intake or referral, and follow-up service for those uninsured and under-insured OHSU patients who might qualify for state and/or federal medical assistance programs. We can assist you with the application process, if appropriate. Read more.

Please utilize a menu-driven phone line at 503-494-1390 or please see Maps and Directions.

Insurance registration

If you are new to OHSU, you will need to register as a patient prior to your appointment. Contact registration at 503-494-8505.

Has your insurance changed since your last visit? If so, please call registration at 503-494-8505 ahead of your appointment.

Self-pay patients still need to register as an OHSU patient. You will indicate self-pay during registration. To register as a patient before your appointment, contact registration at 503-494-8505.

Self-payments are made at the time of service.

Appointment Cancellation Policy

It is our goal to provide timely and quality care for all those in need. Late cancellations or appointment no-shows penalize other patients who would have otherwise been able to be seen sooner.  The Department of Dermatology requires that patients give at least a 24-hour (1 business day) notice to cancel or reschedule a medical appointment.

Established patients may be discharged from the practice if they no-show or miss three appointments with their medical provider without giving 24-hour cancellation notice.  New patients may be referred back to their primary care provider without a visit by the Department of Dermatology if they no-show or cancel two new patient appointments.
