She should request a refund. That’s not good enough and Laura won’t know people aren’t happy unless they ask for their money back. She’s well within her rights to.

Now, this family member has gone in search of help everywhere and anywhere for a skin situation. It’s IVF induced acne / sores like the real sore acne plus hard coarse facial hair. And the prescription strength stuff required for hair/skin is totally something you really can’t often mix with IVF meds depending as many skin meds can be hormonal. This isn’t a few spots not this is quite bad. I got a shock when I saw myself. Anyway she found Dr Laura unhelpful, wanting to sell her products and really my family member felt Laura was too ‘ I’m sure that’s ok for IVF’ casual when in fact as we all know a paracetamol can throw IVF off sometimes it’s all about balances and hormones and science. So it’s €75 for €30 min consult and then €120 upwards for skin care that she will prescribe you, but she also stocks it so she can send herself your prescription that she wrote, and then post you the prescribed skin care. Surely be to god that’s not ethical and means she is more likely to only prescribe you with a brand she sells over a brand she doesn’t!! I can’t see how she’s getting away with that. But anyway the consult was booked out of desperation, to be fair, but she got nowhere . I think she’s going to try the skin nerd next ... not sure if that’s a con or what
I wouldn’t recommend the skin nerd, she’s not going to know the interactions with IVF meds. It’s not what you’re going to want to hear but the only safe and effective cure I’ve found is time. I’m trying another round of IVF and luckily (?) this time all the cystic spots are coming up on my back and not my face so far. The last few rounds though they’ve been on my face and neck (as you say not little spots that are annoying but large painful cystic lumps) I’ve tried everything but the only thing that really helps is the break between rounds when I’m not on the drugs.awful.

I believe you. Is there any possibility you can report her for breaking covid rules?would she be thinking that by when she had the negative test (think that was a week or less before the Positive one)that Her 14 days are up? Really don’t know!But I assure you, as my 7 month old is here sleeping next to me, Laura confirmed she is covid positive last Thursday to my close family member on her video consult - I can even tell you the booking system she uses is called Heydoc and it’s €75 a consultation. There’s no doubt she has covid. It’s her behaviour that’s questionable
Surely aswell her packing orders to send to people when covid positive and no Ppe on at the very least seems unethical.... I know I wouldn’t want to receive something packed by her right nowI believe you. Is there any possibility you can report her for breaking covid rules?
That’s so awful. The poor girl. Would she speak to her own GP and ask for a referral to a dermatologist?awful.

i used to have bad skin, not bad enough for the doc to treat it as full blown acne but I was nearly always battling a fricken boil on my fave. So I tried absolutely everything including the skin nerd before my wedding. It didn’t work- thank god for good make up! Since I got married I’ve adopted a much lower maintenance skin care regime, to save money and time (we have kids now) and I now have perfect skin abs rarely ever bother with make up!awful.

i also think --- that your family member going through IVF that there is a huge amount of hormonal changes and pressure on the on the body. She may find once (please god) she gets her little baby that her skin in time evens out. Large boils / cystic acne are 9times out of 10 hormonal related and no amount of cleaners or acids will help. its within - and has to be treated at a cellular level. i did a derm rotation as i really thought Derm was going to be my speciality... but couldnt get over the wide array of complex skin problems that exist. Derms know that creams/ acids dont work for most acne but take the free samples and push certain products - when people cant / wont go onto tablets. I know Dr Laura would know this. and she is just scamming people. .. Your family member just has to ride it out and when she has her little baby - then there is loads (tablet wise) available to her. Just its very toughawful. Now, this family member has gone in search of help everywhere and anywhere for a skin situation.

I’d agree- a pregnancy might see everything right itself so fingers crossed for her!i also think --- that your family member going through IVF that there is a huge amount of hormonal changes and pressure on the on the body.

I’m pretty sure it’s against the code of conduct for doctors and most definitely against the code of ethics.Guys thanks to everyone who kindly gave advice re the skin issue
For me with Dr Laura, I can’t see how it’s right she charges you for the consult, and she will prescribe you the item she SELLS and she will post it to you. So you’ll never get recommended skin care she doesn’t sell? Surely that’s not right
Well... you don’t need to be a doctor to chat to someone online and sell them a skin care line with retinol and hyaluronic acid etc etcSo is she qualified to prescribe skincare?!
I’d love more detail on this, I understand that there are medicines, topical and oral, that can only be prescribed by a dermatologist and not just a GP. What type of products is she writing prescriptions for? Is it not just a brand that she’s trained in?
Like a GP could prescribe an oral antibiotic or a topical treatment for acne for example, but it’s not a ‘big brand skincare’ product. I need more detail
She can prescribe things like tetracyclines and most other oral and topical skin remedies but the more severe cases would need a dermatologist’s input and they have a licence to prescribe stronger medication. Side effects are stronger etc. Many GP’s often take on extra training in the dermatology area too, but I really doubt this is what Laura did.So is she qualified to prescribe skincare?!
