Information for Patients

Atopic Dermatitis (AD) or Eczema

AD or eczema is one of the most common inflammatory skin disorders that often begins in early childhood. Although most cases are mild in nature, many suffer from moderate-to-severe disease that can be incredibly debilitating. Research in the Kim Lab has helped to champion new therapies for AD and this disease has emerged as one of the most exciting disease in dermatology due to an exponential number of new drugs coming to the market.

Chronic Idiopathic Pruritus (CIP)

Many patients suffer from itch of unknown origin or CIP. This condition is a diagnosis of exclusion and requires an extensive clinical and laboratory evaluation. Despite the fact that 80% of the patients in our clinic suffer from this condition, there is very little known about this condition. Please contact our clinic to come in for an evaluation.

Chronic Itch Disorders

Chronic itch may be one of the most common symptoms in all of medicine. Patients can present with chronic itch in the setting of many diseases including those affecting the blood, bone marrow, kidneys, and liver. Unfortunately, treatments for chronic itch associated with systemic medical disorders remains quite limited. However, new research is coming in these areas.
