What's New On DermEngine

Documentation shouldn’t be the hardest part of your day.

Dermatology visits move fast: history, exam, dermoscopy, photos, procedures, follow-ups—then the real work starts after the patient leaves. Turning all of that into clean, consistent notes can steal time from care (and from your evenings).

That’s why DermEngine now includes Automated Visit Summaries—a new AI-powered feature that turns a completed visit into a clear, well-structured summary in seconds.

One click to a complete, readable summary

With just one click, DermEngine brings together the key details from that day’s visit—diagnoses, images, and clinical actions—and generates a concise summary that’s automatically added to your notes. You stay in control: review, adjust wording, and save. It’s a smart first draft built from what’s already captured during the visit.

Note: AI-generated summaries may contain errors. Please review before saving, and report any issues to help us improve.

How it works:

From the patient’s Spot page:

1. Select + Visit Notes
2. Choose Summary Length: Short, Medium, or Long
3. Select whether it’s written for the Provider or the Patient
4. Click Generate Visit Summary
5. Review, edit if needed, and Save
   

No copying between screens. No re-typing. No end-of-day backlog.

Choose the right length for the moment

• Short: the essentials
  
• Medium: a balanced recap for most visits
  
• Long: extra detail for complex encounters
  
  

Why clinicians are using it

• Save time on visit documentation. Automated Visit Summaries reduce repetitive typing so you can focus on patient care—especially when the schedule is full and the clock is not on your side.
• Create consistent, easy-to-read summaries. Standardized structure makes it easier to scan notes, prep for follow-ups, and maintain continuity across providers in the same practice.
• Share patient-friendly summaries when needed. When you choose the patient-facing option, DermEngine generates clearer language that’s easier to understand—helping patients remember the plan and feel confident about next steps.
• Reduce after-hours charting. Finish documentation while details are fresh, and reclaim time that would otherwise spill into evenings.

Better for patients, easier for staff

A clear recap helps patients remember the plan and follow through—especially when the summary is written in plain language. It can also reduce follow-up calls because your team can quickly reference a consistent visit story.

Because the summary lives in the visit notes alongside images and diagnoses, everything stays connected and searchable in DermEngine.

Built for real workflows

Automated Visit Summaries are most useful in two moments:

• Right after you complete a visit
• When you’re preparing follow-up documentation
  
  

Because the summary is added directly to your notes, it fits the way you already use DermEngine—no extra tools, no separate drafts, no disruption. And because you can edit before saving, your documentation stays clinician-led and tailored to your standards.

Try it on your next visit

Automated Visit Summaries help you stay focused on care, not paperwork—while keeping documentation clear, consistent, and ready to share.

Try it out during your next visit and let us know what you think. We’re excited to see how it fits into your workflow and would love to hear your feedback!
