Multidisciplinary Dermatology: A Framework from the Association of Academic Cosmetic Dermatology

Cross-specialty collaboration can be helpful in the treatment of patients with complex medical conditions involving dermatologic manifestations. This article underscores the utility of multidisciplinary collaboration through discussion of seven hypothetical case scenarios, including patient care in the clinical contexts of hidradenitis suppurativa, venous varicosities, scleroderma, gender-affirming care, sequelae from cancer, solid organ transplantation, and neurocutaneous syndromes. Through these cases, we highlight how a holistic healthcare approach that encompasses multiple specialties can positively contribute to dermatologic patient care.
