Ep25 – COVID-19 and Dermatology – with Dr. Karthik Krishnamurthy, DO and Dr. Grumpypants

The Grenz Zone

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we will veer from our traditional content in order to give dermatology providers information and guidance. This episode will include a basic discussion of what we know about COVID-19, along with an interview with Dr. Krishnamurthy on how dermatology practices are adjusting to the outbreak, including managing biologic therapies and how they’re adjusting staffing and transitioning to telederm.
