Episode 34: You're Not Alone: Treating Moderate to Severe Atopic Dermatitis Is Tricky

Mild eczema can be adequately controlled with topicals and current practices; however, moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis requires a more complete and comprehensive approach to care.

Each Thursday, join Dr. Raja and Dr. Hadar, board certified dermatologists, as they share the latest evidence-based research in integrative dermatology.
