The Heartbreak of Psoriasis – Words from a TV commercial more than 50 years ago still describe the discomfort and embarrassment patients suffer. The good news? There is an entire treasure chest of therapies available now that didn’t exist when that commercial was made. Dr. Bruce Brod will explain what psoriasis looks like, its various forms, and the spectrum of treatment options. He also stresses the importance of caring for the whole patient, since this condition can be a strain on mental health as well.

Lesley’s Place in West Chester is a nonprofit organization which aims to help homeless dogs become cancer-free and find a forever home, while simultaneously advancing research to help both dogs and women with breast cancer. Dr. Karin Sorenmo and Dr. Mark Cofone are a married couple, who met while training at the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine. Karin became the director of oncology at UPenn’s Veterinary Hospital and Mark was the director of a private animal hospital. Now in retirement, they established Lesley’s Place in 2021 and donate their services in honor of the life and work of their colleague Dr. Lesley King, who lost her own battle with breast cancer.
