Reduce dermatology workload in primary care.
Pellis is a clinical decision support platform designed to help primary care accurately assess and manage skin conditions — reducing pressure on secondary care and accelerating treatment where it matters.
THE NHS CAPACITY CRISIS
Dermatology demand is outpacing capacity
Dermatology is one of the most overburdened specialties in the NHS.
A significant proportion of referrals to secondary care are avoidable, yet clinicians lack the tools and time to confidently manage cases in primary care.
→ Long waiting lists delay critical diagnoses
→ Primary care clinicians face increasing diagnostic pressure
→ Secondary care clinics are overwhelmed

See Pellis AI in practice
1. Patient-led assessment
Patients begin by completing a structured dermatology assessment on their smartphone, designed to capture the key clinical information required for safe and effective decision-making.
The guided flow prompts for symptoms, duration, relevant medical history, and high-quality images of the affected area. This ensures that each case is consistently documented, reducing the variability often seen in traditional consultations.
By collecting this information upfront, clinicians receive a more complete picture before reviewing the case, saving time and improving the quality of the interaction.
3. Decision & Outcome
Pellis AI provides suggested diagnoses and management pathways to support clinical decision-making, which are always reviewed and approved by the GP.
Clinicians retain full control, with the ability to accept recommendations, adjust the diagnosis, or select alternative management options based on their judgement.
Once approved, the patient receives a clear outcome, including guidance on self-management, treatment options, and next steps where appropriate. This can reduce the need for follow-up appointment while ensuring patients remain supported and informed.
2. Structured clinical summary
All patient-submitted information is automatically organised into a clear, clinically relevant summary, allowing GPs to review cases quickly and efficiently.
Key details including symptom history, visual inputs, and risk indicators are presented in a consistent format, removing the need to extract or interpret fragmented information during the consultation.
This structured approach supports faster decision-making, reduces cognitive load, and enables clinicians to focus on clinical judgement rather than administrative tasks.
Pellis AI integrates into existing workflows — reducing consultation time while maintaining full clinical control.
