The first Multidisciplinary Psoriasis Clinic opened at the Bolwell Health Center at University Hospitals Case Medical Center on Wednesday, April 25, 2007.

Patients who are seen in the Multidisciplinary Clinic will have access to all members of the multidisciplinary team, which include dermatology, rheumatology, psychiatry, and nutrition services. Members of the team will have the opportunity to see each patient, and then collaborate with one another to develop a treatment plan that will treat the patient as a whole, and not just focus solely on the skin.

Multidisciplinary Team Description:
Dermatology	For patients seeking expert and up-to-date treatment for their psoriasis
Rheumatology	For patients suffering from psoriasis-related joint disease
Psychiatry	For patients and their families seeking emotional support from the effects of psoriasis
Nutrition Services	For patients seeking assessment and advice on nutritional changes that could aid in the treatment of psoriasis and overall general health

If you are interested in scheduling an appointment, please contact Kim Phillips at 216-844-7394.
