Review insights from expert faculty as they look forward to the upcoming Elevate-Derm conference.
The Elevate-Derm West Conference is fast approaching and promises high-quality educational content and networking opportunities set against a backdrop of beauty and fun in the heart of Scottsdale, Arizona.
As we gear up for this year’s conference, being held November 7-10, we asked some of the fan favorite, expert-faculty for a sneak peek of their lectures. Here’s what they had to say about what you can expect from The Elevate-Derm West Conference this fall:
"Despite the tremendous advancements in medical therapies for inflammatory skin disorders, there are still patients that don't respond to these therapies or are unable to access them due to cost. Herein, we review best practices on how to use our traditional immunomodulatory agents which remain safe, effective, and affordable options," said James Song, MD.
"There is no question that we are living in a golden era for inflammatory skin disorders. The challenge, however, is actually getting these medications approved without pulling out all of your hair. In this talk, we will discuss essential tips and tricks to help you and your staff work smarter (and not harder), so that your patients can receive these life-changing medications quickly while minimizing disruption to your practice," Song said.
"Don't be afraid of kids. During my 3 lectures at Elevate-West, you will learn about pediatric lumps and bumps, common things that I get text-consulted about, and general pearls in peds care. You will emerge from this conference feeling empowered to evaluate and treat our littlest patients," said Lisa Swanson, MD.
Swanson was also kind enough to share her thoughts on what excites her most about attending this fall’s Elevate-Derm West Conference.
"I am most looking forward to sharing the joy of pediatric dermatology with the attendees," she said. "And I actually grew up in Scottsdale, so I'm pretty excited to get back to my old stomping grounds."
