We are a Solo Dermatologist practice and have been operating since 1999. Our staff are here to assist with your enquiry and arrange appointments. While we have both telehealth options and face-to-face consultations available, best practice is to have a face to face consultation especially for the first visit. When you ring us we will advise you our next available New Patient appointment and if you provide us with your referral we will be able to arrange a consult in a timely manner.
Some patients may require scripts or blood test forms outside of appointments and these may be need to be faxed or emailed to the pharmacy or pathology company. A processing fee applies.

Our mission is to provide you with personalized, high-quality care and our focus is on prevention, diagnosis of skin lesions and conditions as well as treatment of chronic dermatological issues.
Dr Oziemski is involved in undertaking consultations and conducts minor procedures such as biopsies and surgical removal of lesions.
However we do not undertake treatment with laser or perform cosmetic procedures with injectables.
We have an extensive network for referral on for other treatment or surgery if needed and we do not charge for providing a referral to another medical practitioner.
Dr Margaret Oziemski Dermatologist has been in practice at Morris Towers since moving with her family from Melbourne.
She participates in the Australasian College of Dermatologists continuing professional development programme and attends symposia and Clinical meetings to continue to update her knowledge of Dermatological advances.
You will find we now have no magazines on display but what has not changed is a warm greeting when you arrive.
We appreciate if you update us on any changes in your details when you re-visit for easier contact and communication.
VITAMIN D
It is important if you are sunprotecting or are in isolation due to illness and not able to be in the sun due to limitations in your environment or access to foods containing vitamin D, that you maintain adequate vitamin D for your bone health and you can discuss this with Dr Oziemski via telehealth methods.

It is important if you are sunprotecting or are in isolation due to illness and not able to be in the sun due to limitations in your environment or access to foods containing vitamin D, that you maintain adequate vitamin D for your bone health and you can discuss this with Dr Oziemski via telehealth methods.
VITAMIN B3
New research also regarding vitamin B3 tablets or cream and prevention of skin cancer is discussed when appropriate to your condition.
MONITORING OF MOLES AND LESIONS
If Dr Oziemski has taken pictures of any moles or lesions it maybe possible for you to take a picture and email that if you notice changes between your appointments.. Dr Oziemski may then discuss further management with you via the telephone or video link, depending on what you are capable of using, if you are unable to come into the office. It is however preferred to see changing pigmented lesions in a face -to-face consultation because other instruments may be needed to magnify the lesion as well as to perhaps collect a sample or a biopsy of the lesion.
SUNPROTECTION AND SUN SAFETY
And if you do have a yard and access to the outdoors, remember we do live in Queensland and sun protection may be very important for you to maintain all year round.
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN DERMATOLOGY
It is an evolving field at the time this is written however patients and health consumers need to have an understanding of the current AI-based software systems that are used in dermatology diagnosis and have some confidence in the information generated by these systems. At present, according to a recent review of these systems published in the Australasian Journal of Dermatology, of 21 mobile systems examined, none fully complied with the common labelling recommendations. Therefore there may be information gaps in how the alogarithm was developed and how it performs in practice which means we cannot rely on the information such systems may be genrating which may be being used for making clinical decisions. Dr Oziemski currently is using the clinical standard for pigmented lesions which is a hand held dermatoscope and image capture of pigmented lesions which may be used for recording in the clinical file but the decision is made by discussing the findings with you at your face to face consultation.
If you have a referral from your GP you may fax or email it to us and we will allocate an appointment in a timely manner..

We offer management for many acute conditions such as hand dermatitis which may be more common now we are all washing our hands more often or using hand sanitisers and may be caused by eczema or psoriasis.
Sometimes Dr Oziemski may ask you to email in photos of the lesion of concern or rash and discuss that with you via phone or video. However due to Changes in Telehealth item numbers, there may be a fee for communicating in this way if there is no valid referral.
It may be necessary to take a small skin sample or skin scraping and and a face to face consultation may need to also be arranged with Dr.
Sometimes removal of the mole or spot is needed and Dr Oziemski will discuss with you the best method to do so and provide you with a estimate of out of pocket costs if the procedure is done by Dr Oziemski. However you may wish to be referred to a Plastic Surgeon and Dr Oziemski will assist in providing you with a referral to allow the removal in a timely manner with the Surgeon or your general practitioner.
Many of the chronic skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis still require care and prescriptions may need to be filled. The video or phone consultation option may be perfectly suitable for communicating with Dr Oziemski in some cases but a face to face consult is optimal.

Many of the chronic skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis still require care and prescriptions may need to be filled. The video or phone consultation option may be perfectly suitable for communicating with Dr Oziemski in some cases but a face to face consult is optimal.
If you need a script outside of the consultation we may be able to fax or email a script to the chemist you usually use, however if we have not seen you for a while, Dr Oziemski would like to take a moment to talk to you and may need to ring you back if your enquiry is during her consultation with another patient.
Arranging scripts outside of appointments may incur a processing fee.

In a condition like acne often many over the counter creams have been tried before getting to the doctor or specialist for a prescription. There is also available a medication only prescribed by the Dermatologist which is oral Isotretinoin and it needs monitoring with review visits and blood test. Existing acne patients may be able to request subsequent review appointments via teleconsult some of the time. This will save time in parking and in transit so our fees are accordingly reduced. You will still receive the Medicare rebate that applies if you have a valid referral.
