Rheumatology
Dermatology
Educational Overview
The Inpatient Dermatology Consult rotation will provide the resident with an opportunity to recognize and treat acute and chronic skin conditions. The resident will learn to identify and characterize physical findings typical of complex skin disorders as well as findings that precede or reflect systemic illness, such as metabolic, neoplastic, and connective tissue disorders. Residents will become skilled in the skin exam, develop basic procedural skills, and learn appropriate indications for dermatology referral.
Rotation Description and Structure
The Inpatient Dermatology Consult rotation is a 2-week service that is combined with Rheumatology. It is composed of clinical experiences on the inpatient consult service at Olive View-UCLA Medical Center. Residents will take the Dermatology pager and be on-call on Fridays, Mondays, and Tuesdays. Supervision is provided directly by the attending physician. Of note, outpatient Dermatology clinic is assigned during the Ambulatory Medicine week.
Rheumatology
Educational Goals & Overview
Residents on the Rheumatology rotation are expected to gain a level of competence such that they can independently manage relatively common and/or acute rheumatologic conditions (appropriately managed by general internists) such as osteoarthritis, gout, infectious arthritis, and localized musculoskeletal problems. For less common or more chronic severe or complex cases such as RA, Lupus, Polymyositis, vasculitis and others, residents will in the process of providing consultations under the supervision of a specialist, learn how to recognize and diagnose these conditions and appropriately refer them for specialty care.
By the end of the Rheumatology rotation residents should:
- Master the differential diagnosis of rheumatologic diseases;
- Perform a thorough rheumatologic history and exam;
- Implement a focused, cost-effective evaluation for rheumatologic complaints; and
- Understand the principles of treating rheumatologic diseases as well as the short- and long-term effects of such treatment.
