description During the COVID-19 pandemic, NHS services had to convert face-to-face consultations to remote consultations to facilitate the ongoing provision of healthcare. Many specialties including Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and Rheumatology have found such virtual clinics effective and appreciated by both patients and clinicians. In Oral Medicine, whilst responses to virtual clinics have been positive, we have recognised that they are not sufficient. In this reflective piece, we describe our experiences and our approach to their use in the management of Oral Medicine and Behçet’s disease patients, which has developed iteratively during the lockdown period. We also consider the role of virtual clinics in Oral Medicine in the post-COVID-19 era.
