  Psoriasis Is More Than Skin Deep | Dr. Joel Gelfand

  Aug 12, 202644 minS1

  Psoriasis is visible on the skin, but what is happening beneath the surface may have implications far beyond it. In this episode of Dermatology Undressed: a Provocative Podcast , Dr. Lindsay Ackerman sits down with Dermatologist and Epidemiologist Dr. Joel Gelfand, whose pioneering research has helped define the connection between psoriasis and cardiovascular disease. They explore why psoriasis is now recognized as a cardiovascular risk enhancer, how chronic inflammation may connect the skin to the heart, and why people living with psoriasis may face increased risks of heart attack, stroke, diabetes, and other metabolic conditions. Dr. Gelfand also discusses what the evidence can, and cannot, tell us about whether treating psoriasis changes cardiovascular risk, the importance of screening for blood pressure, cholesterol, and diabetes, and why psoriasis should never be dismissed as simply a skin condition. It is a conversation about looking beyond what we can see on the skin to better understand what may be happening throughout the body.

In this special episode of Dermatology Undressed: A Provocative Podcast, Janice and Dr. Ackerman share a powerful story about looking beyond the skin, listening closely, and caring for the whole person, not just the condition that brought them into the exam room

  Women Power Healthcare, But Rarely Lead It | Amy Perry

  Jul 22, 202628 minS1

  Women make up the majority of the healthcare workforce and often guide the medical decisions made within their families. Yet only a small percentage of the nation’s largest healthcare systems are led by women. In this episode of Dermatology Undressed: a Provocative Podcast, Dr. Lindsay Ackerman sits down with Amy Perry, president and CEO of Banner Health, to examine why that leadership gap persists and what needs to change. Amy shares her experience of being the only woman at a table of healthcare CEOs and discusses the professional and personal barriers that can slow women’s advancement. She also explores the importance of board representation, professional relationships, strong support systems, and helping more women reach positions where they can influence research, innovation, and patient care. The conversation also looks toward the future of healthcare, including investments in technology, preventive care, community wellness, and a model that reaches people before they become sick. This is a candid conversation about leadership, representation, and creating a healthcare system that better reflects the people who power it.

  The Women’s Health Crisis Hiding in Plain Sight | Dr. Gail Goldstein

  Jul 15, 202645 minS1

  What happens when women’s health falls between medical specialties, and when geography determines whether a preventable disease becomes deadly? In this episode of Dermatology Undressed: a Provocative Podcast, Dr. Lindsay Ackerman speaks with board-certified dermatologist and global medical volunteer Dr. Gail Goldstein, co-founder and board member of the Gynecologic Cancers Research Foundation. Dr. Goldstein shares how her organization brings HPV testing, cervical cancer screening, early intervention, and treatment to women in underserved and marginalized communities around the world. From screening garment workers during their lunch breaks in Cambodia to navigating cultural stigma and limited access to care, the conversation reveals what it truly means to meet women where they are. The discussion also explores the often-overlooked intersection of dermatology and gynecology, including lichen sclerosus, vulvar cancer, and the symptoms women may dismiss or that clinicians may miss because vulvar health too often falls into the space between specialties. This is a conversation about prevention, access, medical blind spots, and why compassionate care should have no borders.

  In this episode of Dermatology Undressed: A Provocative Podcast by SkinTellAgent, Dr. Lindsay Ackerman sits down with Dr. Brian Kim for a powerful conversation about chronic itch, inflammation, and the future of dermatologic care. Dr. Kim is one of the leading voices in itch science and inflammatory skin disease, helping reshape how we understand conditions that are often dismissed, minimized, or misunderstood. Together, he and Dr. Ackerman explore what it means to treat patients whose symptoms can be physically relentless and emotionally devastating. From prurigo nodularis to atopic dermatitis and other chronic inflammatory skin diseases, this conversation looks beyond the surface of the skin to the real-life impact these conditions have on sleep, mental health, daily function, relationships, and quality of life. They also discuss how advances in dermatology are changing what is possible for patients. Today, physicians can do more than diagnose disease and prevent progression.
