When managing atopic dermatitis, it’s up to the patient to determine how much therapeutic intervention they want to pursue, which underscores the importance of applying shared decision-making to practice. Joining Dr. Raj Chovatiya to share their perspectives on how we can utilize shared decision-making in atopic dermatitis care are Dr. Matthew Zirwas and Mr. Douglas DiRuggiero. Dr. Zirwas founded Bexley Dermatology Research Clinic in Columbus, Ohio where he specializes in adult eczema, and Mr. DiRuggiero is a certified physician assistant at the Skin Cancer and Cosmetic Dermatology Center in Rome, Georgia.
