Dermatologists do important work, but not every patient who needs access lives in a city centre. Medical couriers help create access for those who live further from major hospitals.

Even those who do occasionally need specimens and samples moved, and medical couriers do it reliably and quickly. Let’s check out a few reasons why dermatologists partner with R Courier to deliver better service.

Tracking Made Easy

Dermatologists and their patients want to know where the package is when it isn’t in their possession. You can assure them it’s on the way, but they feel truly assuaged seeing precisely where it is at any given time.

Our medical delivery service makes tracking easy, so dermatologists and patients are effortlessly looped in at all times.

Safe Handoff

Handling the contents of medical packages is not like shipping other types of products. The medical courier needs to have a safe and reliable chain of custody. Our specialists have processes in place to ensure the packages are received.

We use a secure e-signature technology at the hand off. If someone can’t be there to receive the parcel, you can let us know and we’ll make an alternate arrangement. We can leave it on the premises, should you need. Checking proof of delivery by logging into your account is easy.

Safe Vehicles

Dermatologists need to know that the packages will arrive when they’re supposed to, and running into problems on the road can jeopardize that. As a reliable courier service for medical clinics, we put a lot of work and time into maintaining our fleet of vehicles to ensure they’re in tip-top shape before they hit the road.

As an additional layer of protection, we also keep a well-stocked fleet of vehicles in reserve in case something does happen to a vehicle while in transit. We do everything possible to minimize the chance that something goes wrong.

Our vehicles are also equipped for whatever type of shipment you’re sending, whether it’s patient medical records or sensitive specimens from the lab that need to be in a safe and stable temperature-controlled environment.

Stay Connected

Dermatologists need to be assured that they’re never out of reach with the driver. Our vehicles are equipped with two types of communicative devices in case one of them, for some reason, faces a problem, radios and phones.

Route Optimization

Finally, medical couriers need to be quick and reliable, too. We use powerful mapping technology that puts drivers on the shortest route to their destination, so they arrive promptly without ever being hasty.

There’s no tension or conflict between being quick and safe, so dermatologists can sit back knowing their packages will arrive when they’re supposed to.

Dermatologists play a vital role in public healthcare. People need to access their services, and this may entail linking up rural communities to larger hospitals or couriering within city centres themselves. Either way, R Courier is glad to play a role in helping dermatologists transport medicine and supplies to where they need to be.
