Guest: Joe K. Tung, MD, MBA
Psoriasis affects nearly eight million adults in the US, but its impact isn’t felt equally; significant disparities in diagnosis exist across race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status. Join Dr. Joe Tung as he discusses his recent analysis of data from the National Health Interview Survey, in which he explored the most affected patient populations, the potential for underdiagnosis, and the broader ties between psoriasis, metabolic health, and life satisfaction. Dr. Tung is a board-certified dermatologist currently serving as the Medical Director of UPMC Falk Dermatology, Director of the Clinical Trials Unit, and Associate Director of the Dermatology Residency Program.
