I have informed the patient of the risks and benefits associated with topica l Aldara therapy as well as the side effects and I have advised her that. There is a chance that this may not clear with the use of the topical Aldara therapy. The patient and mother understand and wish to try this route regardless. Foll ow up will be in six to eight weeks. With regards to the acne, I have given her some samples of Cetaphil Derma Control for early skin wash as well as the moist urizer. I would like for her to use this in conjunction with her doxycycline. I have advised the patient after she goes of her final dose of doxycycline. She will most likely need to begin use of the topical Differin and/or topical Tazor ac along with Acanya use q.a.m. to help maintain her results. The patient voice d understanding followup in six to eight weeks. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. ADDENDUM: I have also discussed if the patient is aversive or irritated by the retinoids. We also may wish to try the Finacea given her family history of rosa cea. We do not have any samples today; however, at follow-up I will definitely keep this in mind. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. 1. Acne excoriated. We revisited the etiology of this problem. I have talked with the patient today about talking with her primary care provider with regards to treatment for OCD to involve SSRI therapy for obsessive-compulsive disorders such as picking. I have advised the patient that she needs to get the behavior under control prior to doing any type of revision surgery or procedure such as laser resurfacing for acne scarring as continued picking will only lead to new s cars. The patient is very aware of her problem and states that she would like t o get this under control prior to seeking cosmetic treatment. She will be conta cting her family care provider to discuss more about treating the behavioral pro blem of picking at the acneiform lesions. In the interm, I am going to give her Cetaphil Cleanser Derma Control oil-free wash and moisturizer. Samples were pro vided at today s appointment as well as coupons. She may get this over-the-counte r. I also have given her a refill 60 g tube of Aczone gel, which she may use tw ice daily. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment.

On examination of the hand, she does ha ve some small 1-mm vesicles on the finger pads and dorsum of the fingers bilater ally consistent with dyshidrotic eczema. They are dry in nature. No sign of in fection is noted or impetiginization. On examination of the inguinal folds bila

terally, she does have some lichenified thickened hyperpigmented patches present in this region as well, which looks to be consistent with lichen simplex chroni cus likely due to an atopic flare. She does also have some generalized xerosis of both the upper and lower extremities bilaterally. ASSESSMENT/PLAN: Atopic flare with a dyshidrotic component and some postinflamm atory hyperpigmentation and overall dryness. I have advised the patient and her mother to discontinue all fragrance products for a period of two weeks. I woul d like for her to use in the interim Cetaphil Restoraderm. I have given her sam ples and coupons in office today, she may obtain these at her local drug store.

She states she will be following up with him for cosmetic removal of her telangiectasias (spider veins). 4. Lentigo. The patient was reassured regarding the benign nature of these les ions. These lesions do, however, indicate diffuse sun damage. We discussed the importance of wearing a broad- spectrum sunscreen with an SPF 30 or greater whe never they are exposed to the sun. Providing she responds well to the Cortibalm , we will see her back next year for a yearly skin exam. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. SUBJECTIVE: Mr. Daggers presents today for his follow up of his atopic flare-up , which I had seen him last date of service of 04/11/2012. The patient has grew tremendously.

The hands do continue to have some generalized fine flaking and signs of chronic paronychia c ontinue to exist to include complete loss of cuticle along with a clubbing of na ils, which he has had since he was baby. I have noted the patient has been test ed for cystic fibrosis and has screened negative. He does have a history of ast hma. ASSESSMENT/PLAN: Atopic dermatitis with some postinflammatory hyperpigmentation and generalized xerosis still continuing on the hands. I have given the patien t a prescription today in office for clobetasol spray to be used on the hands tw ice daily as needed for extremely resistant flares. Otherwise, I do not want hi m to use this anywhere else on the body. He will continue on with his regular t opical to the body as well as moisturization two to four times daily. The patie nt s mother states he is good today on all his medications. I have advised her to

feel free to call the refill line should she need refill of any of the topicals or the antihistamines. She will continue on with fragrance free, soaps, and mo isturizers as well as fragrance free detergents. Of note, the patient is going to Cub Scout camp soon. She is concerned about the lack of attention he may rec eive or the lack of attention he may give to his atopic skin (however, the patie nt states that he will be compliant with his regimen. I have advised her to cal l the office if there are any significant flare-ups requiring medical attention) .

The patient was instructed to call me if there is any concern about the surgical site in the future. The patient denies any f ever, sweats, or chills since date of biopsy and denies any abnormal oozing, ble eding, crusting, or drainage at the wound site. I have informed the patient the results have come back consistent with non-scarring alopecia, but differential including telogen effluvium, androgenetic alopecia, and early traction alopecia and alopecia areata cannot be excluded. We have discussed these various etiolog ies. I have consulted also with Dr. Alan Rolfe regarding this patient today in office. He has advised a course of clobetasol topical solution to be applied to the scalp for a cycle of three weeks on, two weeks off, and then repeat one tim e.

She ma y be a candidate for patch testing in the future, but she must go off all topica l steroids for at least one to two weeks prior to having the patch test done. T he procedure was explained in detail in office to the patient today. The patien t wishes to defer patch test treatment at this time. Dr. Rolfe has discussed wi th the patient the risks of long-term steroid use in the eye area to include ski n thinning, telangiectasias, and risk for glaucoma or increased pressure behind the eye. We are going to switch to a nonsteroidal Elidel. I have written her f or a 30 g tube. She may apply this up to twice daily as needed for flare-up. I have advised the patient the first few applications may be somewhat tingly when applying. She understands. Also she is to remove any fragranced product s from her household and personal care for a period of four months to see if thi s will help to alleviate the situation as well. She may also wish to try a coup le days of sleeping without the dog to see if that will help out with the situat ion too. Follow up at this point will remain open-ended. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. 1. Squamous cell carcinoma of the anterior tibial surface of the left lower extremity. The nature and purpose of the procedure, associated risks, and poss ible complications were discussed with the patient. Complications including hem orrhage, infection, scarring, necrosis, dehiscence, and recurrence were reviewed . The surgical site was prepped with alcohol. 1% lidocaine with epinephrine wa s infiltrated for local anesthesia. The clinical margins of the lesion were del ineated. The site was then treated with 3 cycles of electrodesiccation and cure ttage, ensuring all borders and the base were clear of grossly abnormal tissue. The site measured 1.4 cm after the third curettage cycle. The site was dressed with Polysporin and bandaged. The patient tolerated the procedure well without any complications. Would care instructions were reviewed. 2. Lentigo. Ms. Hoffman was reassured that these are benign lesions. They do however, indicate diffuse sun damage. We discussed the importance of wearin g a broad- spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or greater whenever she is expos ed to the sun. A handout of recommended broad-spectrum sunscreens was given to the patient as well as numerous broad-spectrum sunscreen samples. 3. Xerosis. I discussed the importance of using a very mild soap in the ba th or shower such as Dove for sensitive skin, Cetaphil, or CeraVe. Showers shou ld be with warm or cool water and limited to 5 to 10 minutes. After towel dryin g, the patient should apply a thick emollient cream when the skin is still damp. Cetaphil, Creamy Vaseline, Eucerin, and CeraVe are good moisturizers to use. Another application of moisturizer should be used during the day. Follow up wil l be in four weeks for check of the wound. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. ASSESSMENT/PLAN: Lichen simplex chronicus with a couple of early prurigo nodule s. The patient again wishes to do intralesional injection and says that she is happy with the clobetasol topical ointment to be applied to the arms twice daily

He does suppress well with doxycycline 50 mg oral therapy q.d. and states he has continued on this medication with good results. OBJECTIVE: On exam, he is a well-developed, well-nourished Caucasian male, Fitz patrick type I, in no apparent distress. I did examine today the scalp, face, n eck, and bilateral upper extremities. Face is being clear of any precancerous o r malignant concerns; however, on the dorsum of the forearms and the hands, he d oes have one hyper keratotic papule on the dorsum of the right hand as well as f ive ill-defined erythematous plaques on the left arm, all six which are consiste nt with actinic keratoses. On the left arm, he also does have a 1.2-cm in diame ter erythematous plaque with scale and induration noted, rule out squamous cell carcinoma versus hypertrophic actinic keratosis versus basal cell carcinoma. Th e patient stated that this has risen somewhat recently. The patient also does h ave some fine flaking consistent with xerosis noted on both forearms. 1. Neoplasm of uncertain on the left arm, rule out SCC versus BCC versus hy pertrophic actinic keratosis. After obtaining written consent, the patient was prepped with alcohol. Buffered Lidocaine with epinephrine 1% was administered f or local anesthesia. The lesion was removed in its entirety via a shave procedu re with a Dermablade. Drysol was used for hemostasis. Polysporin ointment was applied and the wound was bandaged. Wound care instructions were reviewed. The patient tolerated the procedure well. Pathology results will be mailed to the patient. This was done in the office today. 2. Actinic keratoses. Six were treated in the office today, one on the dor sum of the right hand, five on the dorsal aspect of the left forearm with liquid nitrogen cryotherapy x2 cycles. Postprocedure care and expectations were discu ssed with the patient. He tolerated the procedure well. 3. Xerosis. I discussed the importance of using a very mild soap in the ba th or shower such as Dove for sensitive skin, Cetaphil, or CeraVe. Showers shou ld be with warm or cool water and limited to 5 to 10 minutes. After towel dryin g, the patient should apply a thick emollient cream when the skin is still damp. Cetaphil, Creamy Vaseline, Eucerin, and CeraVe are good moisturizers to use. Another application of moisturizer should be used during the day. Of note, the patient is using the doxycycline as well as the MetroGel. He will continue on t his for his rosacea, but I did not want to discuss this because we did not addre ss the rosacea at today s office visit. Follow up will be depending pathology res ults. Otherwise, we will see him back in three months for followup of his rosac ea. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. SUBJECTIVE: The patient presents for continued management of her palmar hyperhi drosis. We will be treating both the left and right hand at today s visit. A tot al of 100 units will be injected into each palm. The patient denies pregnancy a t today s visit. OBJECTIVE: The patient is a well-developed, well-nourished Asian-American femal e. She is in no acute distress, alert and oriented. Both hands are moist, cool , and actively perspiring at today s visit. ASSESSMENT/PLAN: Palmar hyperhidrosis. Today under aseptic technique a total o f 100 units were injected into the right hand and 100 units was then injected in to the left hand. The Botox solution was 4 mL of normal saline. The injections were made using the 30-gauge needle of approximately 1 cm apart to assure even distribution of the medications. Post injection instructions were provided and the patient will follow up p.r.n. Anesthetic provided with ice and pressure. L ot number for the Botox today used both vials were lot C3012 C3 both 100-unit vi als, expire October of 2014. I was assisted today by dermatology technician Shi

rley Carpenter. Follow up will be pending breakthrough sweating. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. OBJECTIVE: On exam, she is a well-developed, well-nourished Caucasian female, i n no apparent distress. I did examine the area of concern on the lateral aspect of the right lower leg; there is a well-healed well-approximated wound. The pa tient denies any fevers, sweats, or chills since date of biopsy and no abnormal oozing, bleeding, crusting, or drainage in the region. She also does have on ex amination of the lower extremities some light tan and light brown macules of var ious shapes and sizes consistent with solar lentigo and some generalized fine fl aking of the lower extremities consistent with xerosis. ASSESSMENT/PLAN: Dermatitis, not otherwise specified, results have been come ba ck consistent with lichenoid purpuric dermatitis. This was discussed in office today with the patient. She understands this is a benign condition to which she may use the steroid as needed for flare-ups. She states she is good on refills at this point. Follow up will remain open-ended. Patient presents for suture removal. Patient has no complaint about the surgical site and the wound has hea led without any complication. The wound was cleansed, suture were removed.

On the up per lip midline, there is approximately dime-sized areas of hyperpigmentation wi th some hyperkeratotic tissue present. This was viewed in office today by Dr. R olfe under dermoscopy. He does believe this appears verrucous in nature. The p atient has been informed by Dr. Rolfe that as this is verrucous tissue, it will require either cryotherapy or electrodesiccation for treatment. The patient has questioned probably might be able to come to a definitive diagnosis. I have in formed him that this would require biopsy. ASSESSMENT/PLAN: Neoplasm uncertain of the upper lip likely verruca in nature. I have had the patient discuss with his wife the options for treatment. He wis hes to talk to his boss first before he takes off work, as we have informed the patient he may have some difficulty eating along with some associated swelling o f the lip secondary to cryotherapy and some possible blistering. He will follow up as the schedule allows. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment.

N o charge for Latisse prescription, which was written, apply with brush one drop to each upper lid lash base at night. A 3 mL bottle with brush kit was written along with three refills. Follow up will be open-ended. I have advised the pat ient we will e-mail her for any promotional rebates. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. OBJECTIVE: Physical examination reveals a well-developed, well-nourished Hispan ic-American female, in no apparent distress. I did examine today the areas of c oncern. On the anterior chest and cleavage region, she does have some warty wax stuck-on appearing papules consistent with seborrheic keratoses. She also does have some fleshy pedunculated growths, flesh-colored to medium brown in nature consistent with skin tag, two on the left neck and two on the right upper back, all four which lay directly in the bra line and necklace line. She also points to an additional concern on the right buttock near the gluteal cleft, there is a 1 cm nonfluctuant nodule consistent with epidermal inclusion cyst. The patient says this is visible through her when she wears loose pants and she would like to get this taken care of as soon as possible via surgical excision.

1. Epidermal inclusion cyst, right buttock near the gluteal cleft. I have set up a 30-minute excision with Dr. Rolfe and Ms. Jusino for surgical excision of this cyst given the region. He has done a mini consult in the office with th e patient today. 2. Skin tag. Four tags that were traumatized at the base and irritated wer e removed for the patient today in office under aseptic technique. The site was marked and confirmed with the patient, cleansed with alcohol, and infiltrated w ith lidocaine 1% with epinephrine, 1:100,000 dilution as local anesthesia. The skin tags were then removed via surgical scissor snip procedure. The patient to lerated the procedure well. Wound care was discussed with the patient as well a s postprocedural care and expectation. She understands. 3. Seborrheic keratosis. The patient was informed of the benign nature of these lesions and no treatment is necessary at this time. Follow up will be for surgical removal of her cyst with Dr. Alan Rolfe. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. OBJECTIVE: On exam, he is a well-developed, well-nourished young Hispanic-Ameri can male in no apparent distress. I did examine the area of concern today to in clude the face, neck, chest, and back as well as upper extremities. On examinat ion of the face, he does have some inflammatory papules and pustules most notabl y in the bilateral malar cheek region and perinasal region consistent with acne vulgaris. He also does have some hyperkeratotic plugging on the back with some postinflammatory erythema, which looks to be consistent with keratosis pilaris, but cannot completely rule out an element of seborrhea in the form of yeast foll iculitis and even possibly some seborrheic dermatitis given the distribution of the acneiform papules on the face. The patient s mother denies any family history of rosacea or seborrheic dermatitis, but I will keep that in mind after we eval uate at two months whether or not the acne treatment I am prescribing today has been effective or not. 1. Acne vulgaris with postinflammatory changes. I am going to start the patien t on triple therapy regimen to include the following, Cetaphil DermaControl wash and moisturizer to be used both day and night. Also in the morning after washi ng he will apply a thin film of Acanya one pump to the face spread sparingly. H e will also take Doryx 150 mg tablet. Side effects of the Acanya and the Doryx were discussed with the patient in office today. He understands. At night, he will then put a small pea-sized amount of Epiduo gel on to the face and spread i nto a thin film. He will start this Monday and Friday titrating up to every oth er night or nightly use as tolerated. Side effects of the topical retinoid ther apy were discussed with the patient and reviewed. He understands. 2. Keratosis pilaris. I have informed the patient on the benign nature of this condition. No treatment is necessary at this time. Reevaluation in two months . If he continues to have some persistent erythema either on the face or the ba ck, he may wish to do a trial of ketoconazole shampoo used as skin soaking solut ion. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. ASSESSMENT/PLAN: Allergic contact dermatitis with xerosis, moderate-to-severe b reakout in nature. The patient was seen by both myself and Dr. Alan Rolfe today . We have explained to the patient the risk of intralesional high potency Kenal og injection to include avascular necrosis. Instead today Dr. Rolfe has advised continuing on the prednisone taper for 15 more days. She is to take 15 mg per day for the first three days tapering down to 40 mg for days four through six, t apering down to 30 mg for days seven though nine, tapering down to 20 mg days 10 through 12, and tapering down to 10 mg days 13 through 15. A total of 45 table ts were given to the patient with no refill. Additionally, we are going to have her discontinue the fluocinonide cream and instead give her the highest potency topical steroid available, which is clobetasol ointment 0.05%. She is to apply this to affected regions as needed twice daily. Side effects of the topical st eroids and the oral steroids were discussed with the patient in office today. S he does understand and she understands she is not to use this on the face or any

delicate skin or body fold areas (the clobetasol). At this point, follow up will be open-ended. If she does not improve over the n ext week then we would like to see her back. I have advised the patient to comp lete the course of cephalexin and I have encourage her to take the Atarax that w as prescribed for her at Patient First as needed for itching, as she has stated that that has helped with the itch relief somewhat. Follow up open-ended. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. SUBJECTIVE: Brianna presents to the office for what she thinks is allergic reac tion to either her topical acne medicine or her Doryx. She states that she deve loped a very sensitive red itchy reaction on the neck even though she has been u sing the Differin on the chest and back, not on the neck. She also states that she has removed benzoyl peroxide from her regimen. However, the patient s mother has informed me that while she has discontinued the Epiduo and is using only the Differin gel, which does not have benzoyl peroxide in it, she has continued to use the Proactiv line, which I have informed the patient and her mother does als o have benzoyl peroxide in it. OBJECTIVE: The patient is a well-developed, well-nourished Caucasian female in no acute distress. She does have some persistent inflammatory papules present o n the forehead and perinasal and bilateral malar cheek region. Scattered across the back, shoulders, and chest she does have a few scattered inflammatory papul es as well. On the submental/neck region, the patient does have some well-demar cated erythema with some flaking and this does appear to be possibly fungal in n ature. ASSESSMENT/PLAN: Irritant reaction possibly from continued use of benzoyl perox ide, but may also present as fungal or yeast as well. KOH was done showing yeas t on the microscopic exam. I have given the patient a large tube of ketoconazol e cream, which I would like for her to use twice daily for approximately one wee k pass clearing. That diagnosis is dermatitis not otherwise specified. Also we are going to have the patient discontinue her Proactiv as it does contain benzo yl peroxide and instead I have given her the Cetaphil DermaControl line of washe s and moisturizers and said it should be gentler on her skin. The patient is fe arful that the Differin is the culprit of this rash, Dr. Rolfe has advised her t o do a small patch test on the arm apply twice daily over a period of 48 hours t o see if she develops any type of irritant reaction. If no reaction is elicited in 48 hours, then the patient can rest assured that it is not the Differin caus ing this. If it is in fact not the Differin and she wishes to continue on with topical Differin therapy, which I have encouraged, I would like for her to start out slowly using the Differin every third night to start titrating up to nightl y use or every other night use only as tolerated. The patient is going to disco ntinue Doryx as well over the next week, as she is getting ready to go on a crui se. She will be resuming the Doryx, however, when she comes back. Dr. Rolfe ha s discussed with the mother and the patient in office today. He does not believ e that this is related to the Doryx and it does not appear to be a drug reaction as it would often be more generalized. Follow up will be in approximately two to three months. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. SUBJECTIVE: Tara presents to the office today for suture removal on the anterio r aspect of the left thigh. Pathology results are consistent with benign intrad ermal nevi. This was discussed with the patient in office today. OBJECTIVE: On examination, she is a well-developed, well-nourished Caucasian fe male in no apparent distress. The suture site on the anterior aspect of the lef t thigh is well-healed, well-approximated. The patient denies any fever, sweats , or chills since the date of biopsy and no abnormal oozing, bleeding, crusting, or drainage from the wound site. Patient presents for suture removal.

Seborrheic keratosis. The patient was informed of the benign nature of these lesions and no treatment is necessary at this time. 5. History of basal cell carcinoma. We discussed monthly skin checks, look ing for any new or changing pigmented lesions. We also asked the patient to loo k for an irregular border, asymmetry, change in color or increase in diameter of any pigmented lesion. Today I reviewed sun protection guidelines. I discussed ABCD s and the use of sunscreen. I also recommended monthly self skin exam. The pa tient understands we should be notified for any changing lesions, new, or concer ning lesions. I also discussed the use of wearing a hat and avoiding outdoor sun exposure at the peak sun hours. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. ASSESSMENT/PLAN: Acne vulgaris/acneiform folliculitis with postinflammatory cha nges from older resolving lesions. A bacterial culture was taken from one of th e acneiform pustules at today s visit as he does have three to four of these prese nt on the back. Initially, we will start out with topical Benzefoam to be appli ed to the affected areas of the trunk, leave on two minutes and to shower and ri nse off. Samples and copay coupons were given for Benzefoam to the patient s moth er today in the office. I would also like for him after drying off in the showe r to apply a thin film of the Clindagel to the chest and back. We will follow u p in one week. At that time, the patient s mother states she will have the past m edication that he has used. At that time, we should also be able to see the res ults of the bacterial culture. We will tailor treatment plan at that time. I h ave advised the patient and his mother that we maybe doing a short course of dox ycycline and/or some other type of oral antibiotic therapy as his acne is primar ily inflammatory in nature and located on the trunk. Both patient and mother vo iced understanding. Follow up in one week. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. 1.

The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. OBJECTIVE: On exam, the patient is a well-developed and well-nourished male, in no acute distress. I did examine the two areas of concern today. On the left pinkie, there is some xerosis present with loss of the lateral edge of the cutic le. It looks to be consistent with possible paronychia and the xerosis at the f ingertip with some flaking. Examination of the right foot in the interdigital w eb spaces, he does have some flaking along with some maceration, which looks to be suspicious for interdigital tinea pedis. He also has some xerosis at the pla ntar aspects of the feet bilaterally. 1. Dermatitis, not otherwise specified, of the left pinkie, likely consistent w ith paronychia. I have given the patient a tube of Lotrisone to be applied twic e daily to the area over the next two to four weeks.

Postprocedu re care and expectations were discussed with the patient. She tolerated the pro cedure well. 2. Irritated seborrheic keratosis on the dorsum of the right wrist. This was t reated in the office today with liquid nitrogen and cryotherapy x2 cycles. Post procedure care and expectations were discussed with the patient. She tolerated the procedure well. 3. Seborrheic keratosis. The patient was informed of the benign nature of these lesions and no treatment is necessary at this time. The patient was asked what she might be able to do to get rid of some of the lentigines on more permanent basis. I have advised laser removal of these sun lesions secondary to sun damag e. I have advised her cosmetic consultation with Dr. Chang to discuss her laser options. The patient states she will schedule that as soon as her schedule all ows. At this time, her follow up with me is open-ended. When asked if she had done a total skin exam, the patient states that she already has one scheduled wi th another provider. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. SUBJECTIVE: Jasmine presents today as an eight-month pregnant patient for acne and rash that she has had, which the patient states has been previously diagnose d as tinea versicolor. She states she has had the acne over the last few years and it has gotten worse with progression of the pregnancy. She gives no persona l or family history of skin problems otherwise. She states she has an aspirin a llergy. She is currently not taking any daily medications. She does have a his tory of diabetes, headaches, and stomach/bowel issues. She is a nondrinker and nonsmoker. 1. Acne vulgaris with postinflammatory changes. As the patient is eight months pregnant, we are limited in our options that are considered class B safety readi ng or above. Two class B that the patient may wish to try are clindamycin lotio n. I have written her for a 60 mg bottle, she may apply a thin film after washi ng the face each morning. I have advised CeraVe foaming face wash for a gentle non-medicated face wash to use in the morning followed by the clindamycin lotion . At night, she may have to wash her face with the CeraVe foaming face wash aga in and then follow with a small pea size amount of Finacea gel. I have given he r six samples and written her for the Finacea 15% gel a 50 gram tube take one pe a size amount and spread into thin film on face at night after washing. With re gards to the progression of her acne, I have advised the patient that it may bec ome worse as the pregnancy proceeds. While she is pregnant and subsequently whi le she is breastfeeding, our options will be limited. However, after she is don e with breastfeeding, we may then become more aggressive in our approach incorpo rating topicals such as Retin-A and also some oral antibiotics, possibly doxycyc line or minocycline into the regimen. The patient voiced understanding. 2. Tinea versicolor. I have talked with Dr. Robert Pariser regarding treatment for pregnant woman with regards to the tinea versicolor. He states that the be nzoyl peroxide over-the-counter washes are safe to use and often times will trea t the tinea versicolor quite effectively. I have asked the patient to consult w ith her OB prior to using the over-the-counter benzoyl peroxide acne wash as ben zoyl peroxide is indicated as class C in pregnancy. The patient states she will consult with her OB before beginning this program. Follow up will be once the patient has delivered. I have advised her to contact us and we will tailor trea tment plan at that time for her acne and reassess the tinea versicolor. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. MEDICATIONS: His medication list has been scanned into the patient corresponden ce file at today s visit. The patient states he does need to take amoxicillin pri or to having surgical and/or dental work done.

Postprocedural care and expectations were dis cussed with the patient. He tolerated the procedure well. I have advised the p atient if the one on right cheek as well as the one on the left vertex scalp con tinue to persist then we will look at biopsying that at the next visit or sooner . The patient would also be a good candidate in the wintertime for another roun d of Efudex therapy to the vertex scalp. 2. Seborrheic keratosis. The patient was informed of the benign nature of these lesions and no treatment is necessary at this time. 3. Lentigo. The patient was reassured regarding the benign nature of these lesions. These lesions do, however, indicate diffuse sun damage. We discussed the importance of wearing a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF 30 or greater whenever they are exposed to the sun. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. SUBJECTIVE: Mr. Cutchin presents today accompanied by his caregiver daughter fo r a six-month total skin exam.

We discussed the importance of wearing a broad- spectrum sunscreen with an SPF 30 or greater whenever they are exposed to the sun. 4. Xerosis of the bilateral lower extremities. I discussed the importance of using a mild soap in the bath or shower such as Dove for sensitive skin, Oil of Olay, CeraVe or Cetaphil. We also talked about avoiding hot showers or baths and applying a thick emollient cream within three minutes of exiting the bath o r shower while the skin is still damp. Of note, some edema was seen too in the ankles and foot region. I have revisited his medication list. This is to be sc anned into the patient correspondence file. Additionally, I have recommended al so that aside from diuretics that the patient would benefit from a pair of compr ession stockings worn daily as often as possible along with elevation in his rec lining chair. His daughter voiced understanding and reiterated this to the pati ent Mr. Cutchin nodded approval as well. Follow up will be in one year for next total skin exam unless of course he needs us sooner. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. OBJECTIVE: Physical examination reveals a well-developed and well-nourished Cau casian female, alert and oriented, in no acute distress. I did examine today th

e scalp, face, neck, trunk and bilateral upper and lower extremities to include buttocks region. Groin region was deferred at today s visit. On examination of t he upper and lower body, there are numerous light-tan and light-brown macules of various shapes and sizes consistent with solar lentigines as well as a few ligh t-brown to medium brown warty waxy stuck-on appearing papules consistent with se borrheic keratoses. There are also some symmetrical cherry red papules scattere d about the trunk consistent with cherry hemangiomas and a small scar located on the right chin from where cavernous hemangioma was surgically removed years bac k. The patient stayed stable and no changes. No actinic keratoses are present at today s visit. The patient states that the area of xerosis on the occipital re gion of the scalp evaluated last year has cleared up nicely with emollient moist urization. 1. Lentigo. The patient was reassured regarding the benign nature of these lesions. These lesions do, however, indicate diffuse sun damage. We discussed the importance of wearing a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF 30 or greater whenever they are exposed to the sun. 2. Seborrheic keratoses. The patient was informed of the benign nature of these lesions and no treatment is necessary at this time. 4. History of basal cell carcinoma. The patient is meeting with Dr. Rosenb lum in one week to discuss if there is any need for third surgery. I would like to have her reevaluated in approximately six months to have the area of the nas al sidewall reexamined by a staff physician to ensure there is no recurrence of tumor given that it is still somewhat pink and swollen in nature and then I will be meeting with her in one year for her annual total skin exam. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. 1. Atopic dermatitis with generalized xerosis. I have given the patient a refill for triamcinolone, but I have increased the potency to the ointment as op posed to the cream. I have written her for a one-pound jar with one refill. Sh e may apply this twice daily as needed to flares. For the dyshidrotic component (for hands and feet), I have written her for a 60 gram tube of clobetasol ointm ent. This is to be applied twice daily as needed for flares only to the hands a nd feet. Side effects of the steroids were discussed with the patient in the of fice today. She voiced understanding and has been advised that if she feels she is using this on a continuous basis, she needs to follow up with the office at once. 2. Xerosis. I discussed the importance of using a mild soap in the bath or shower such as Dove for sensitive skin, Oil of Olay, CeraVe or Cetaphil. We al so talked about avoiding hot showers or baths and applying a thick emollient cre am within three minutes of exiting the bath or shower while the skin is still da mp. I have advised the patient that fragrance may indeed be the culprit for som e of this dermatitis as she is using highly fragranced nut butter lotions and sc ented Dove soap. I have advised Dove for sensitive skin soap and given her thre e samples in office today. I have also given her some 2$ off coupons for the Ce taphil Restoraderm lotion and wash. She may wish to do the 50:50 mix of the Cet aphil Restoraderm lotion with the Vaseline Petroleum jelly, which she may obtain at the dollar stores. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. OBJECTIVE: Physical examination reveals a well-developed well-nourished young C aucasian female, in no apparent distress. On examination of the bilateral lower extremities, she does have a couple of four to six inflammatory papules present in various stages of resolution. The most visible are the ones on the flexor s urface of the right foot. No interdigital involvement is noted and this does no t look to be scabies in nature. I do believe this is more consistent with insec t bite type reaction. It does not look to be a staph abscess either. No pustul es are noted. No signs of infection either. The patient also does have some sy mmetrical benign-appearing nevi 2-3 mm in diameter, dark-brown, well-circumscrib ed and evenly pigmented throughout. 1. Dermatitis, not otherwise specified, likely insect bite reaction. I hav

e given the patient some samples of the topical ointment to use twice daily to t he area as needed for itch. If she is not better at two weeks time, we will see her back and discuss the short course of doxycycline therapy. 2. Benign nevi on the legs. These are all well marginated, homogenously pi gmented, symmetrical, benign appearing moles. We reviewed the ABCD s of melanoma, and a handout detailing this information was given to the patient. The patient understands that if any of these lesions begin to change, they are to return to clinic for re-evaluation. Today I reviewed sun protection guidelines. I discu ssed ABCD s and the use of sunscreen. I also recommended monthly self skin exam. T he patient understands we should be notified for any changing lesions, new, or c oncerning lesions. I also discussed the use of wearing a hat and avoiding outdoo r sun exposure at the peak sun hours. Follow up at this point is open-ended. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. OBJECTIVE: Physical examination reveals a well-developed and well-nourished Afr ican-American female, in no apparent distress. On examination of the area of co ncern today which is the face, she does have numerous areas of patchy hypopigmen tation present, most notably on the left forehead and left bitemporal region, lo oks to be consistent with pityriasis alba. There is some well-demarcated hypopi gmented patches as well on the right base of the neck. She does have some gener alized fine flaking in the region consistent with her dry skin. The patient als o points to antecubital fossa bilaterally and states that she has had some irrit ation in this area as well. Physical examination reveals some lichenified hypop igmented areas, which looks to be consistent with atopic distribution. 1. Pityriasis alba. I have explained to the patient the etiology and treat ment for pityriasis alba. I am going to start with Elidel cream. She may apply this twice daily to the affected areas of the face as well as the hypopigmented area on the right base of the neck. I have prescribed the patient a 60 gram tu be of the Elidel, which I would like for her to use twice daily to the affected region over the next four weeks and then reevaluate. I have advised the patient this may go on somewhat tingly in nature for the first few applications. The p atient voiced understanding. 2. Dermatitis, not otherwise specified of the bilateral antecubital fossa. This is atopic distribution and is likely mild flare-up of eczema. The patient states it is mild in nature, but it does itch. I have advised the patient she may opt to use some of the Elidel that she uses to treat the face to the antecub ital fossa as well. I have given her enough medication to treat both areas over the next month. Follow up will be in four to six weeks. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. SUBJECTIVE: LaQuan presents to the office today for some spotting he has discov ered on the back of his neck. He says it is not symptomatic and does not bother him. He has noticed that it appeared approximately four to five months ago. T he patient gives no personal or family history of skin problems in the past. He is not allergic to any medications nor is he on any daily medications. He does drink alcohol. He does not smoke tobacco. ASSESSMENT/PLAN: Tinea versicolor with postinflammatory hyperpigmentation and x erosis. I have given the patient today a prescription for ketoconazole shampoo. I would like for him to use this as a body wash entering into the shower and a pplying and leaving on 5 minutes and then rinsing for a daily period of two week s. After two weeks, I would like for the patient to use this twice weekly to ke ep yeast and fungus overgrowth at bay. Follow up will be on an open-ended basis . The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. 1. Neoplasm, uncertain central mid back, just left of center, rule out atyp ical nevus versus dysplastic nevus versus malignant melanoma. Border changes, p igment changes, and size greater than 6 mm does leave me suspicious for the diag nosis of malignant melanoma. Under aseptic technique and 1% lidocaine the lesio n was removed with a DermaBlade technique. Electrodesiccation was applied to th

e base. A dry dressing with Polysporin was applied and wound care instructions w ere given. The proposed procedures, alternatives, risks and benefits were discus sed with the patient. Follow up will be based on the pathological diagnosis and as needed. The patient was informed that they will be made aware of the result s in two to three weeks either by phone or via mail. If they do not hear from u s in four weeks they are to call us. This was done in office today by dermatolo gy technician, Taby Starkey. I have informed the patient pathology results will be back in approximately two weeks. At that time, we will be in touch with the patient for followup. 2. Lentigo. The patient was reassured regarding the benign nature of these lesions. These lesions do, however, indicate diffuse sun damage. We discussed the importance of wearing a broad- spectrum sunscreen with an SPF 30 or greater whenever they are exposed to the sun. 3. Actinic keratosis, three on the vertex scalp were treated in office toda y with liquid nitrogen cryotherapy x2 cycles. Postprocedural care and expectati ons were discussed with the patient. He tolerated the procedure well. Follow u p will be based on pending pathology results. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. OBJECTIVE: On exam, she is a well-developed, well-nourished, Caucasian female, in no apparent distress. I did examine the scalp, face, neck, trunk, and bilate ral upper and lower extremities including the buttocks region. On examination o f the sun exposed areas of the trunk, she does have too numerous to count scatte red solar lentigines of various shapes and sizes, light-tan, light brown in natu re. She also does have numerous warty waxy stuck-on appearing plaques mainly on the back consistent with seborrheic keratoses approximately four of which are d irectly in the bra line and are highly irritating causing significant discomfort to the patient. On the right thigh, she does have hyperpigmented lichenified p apule consistent with dermatofibroma. On the central back, she does have an ind urated nodule with central puncta suspicious for epidermal inclusion cyst on the central back. One is present on the upper shoulder as well with a central punc ta and is smaller and likely able to expressed with comedone in office today. 1. Neoplasm most likely epidermal inclusion cyst of the mid back. Under as eptic technique and 1% lidocaine the lesion was removed with a punch excision. Nylon sutures were placed. Polysporin and a pressure bandage were placed and wo und care instructions were given. The proposed procedures, alternatives, risks and benefits were discussed with the patient. Follow up will be based on the pa thological diagnosis and as needed. The patient was informed that they will be made aware of the results in two to three weeks either by phone or via mail. If they do not hear from us in four weeks they are to call us. This was done in o ffice today by both myself with dermatology technician, Taby Starkey assisting. I have advised the patient that followup will be pending pathology results. 2. Lentigo. The patient was reassured regarding the benign nature of these lesions. These lesions do, however, indicate diffuse sun damage. We discussed the importance of wearing a broad- spectrum sunscreen with an SPF 30 or greater whenever they are exposed to the sun. 3. Dermatofibroma, right thigh. The patient was reassured of the benign na ture of this condition-no treatment is necessary. 4. Comedone on the left upper shoulder. This was extracted as a courtesy t o the patient with the comedone extractor under aseptic technique. 5. Seborrheic keratosis. The patient was informed of the benign nature of these lesions and no treatment is necessary at this time. 6. Irritated seborrheic keratoses. One was treated on the right central ch est area near the bra line, four were treated on the back around the bra line th e ones that which were highly irritating to the patient with liquid nitrogen cry otherapy x3 cycles. Postprocedural care and expectations were discussed with th e patient and she tolerated the procedure well. Follow up will be pending path ology results; otherwise, followup will be at the patient s request.

She states she has had a couple of moles there all her life including this one, but she has noticed lately that the mole of concern has been growing and is causing somewhat of a dull pain. The patient states that it is not a lancing o r shooting type of pain. It just is a dull pain, which she notices intermittent ly. 1. Dermatitis, not otherwise specified with xerosis. In the differential t oday is keratosis pilaris, nummular dermatitis, and possibly allergic contact de rmatitis. I have done a fungal culture today in office by dermatology technicia n, Tammy Chisholm to rule out fungal entity. In the interim, I am giving the pa tient triamcinolone 0.1% cream 60 g tube. I would like for her to use this twic e daily for the next two weeks to the affected areas of the back. If the DTM cu lture does come back as positive for fungus, we will re-tailor treatment plan at that time. Otherwise, if it does come back as negative and the itchiness and d ryness has cleared with two-week use of the triamcinolone, we will have the pati ent continue on with the triamcinolone only as needed for flare-ups. 2. Neoplasm uncertain of the left forehead, likely intradermal nevus, which the patient would like removal of. I have discussed with the patient that this will be a consult and decision left up to our dermatologic surgeon, Dr. Chang. He may either opt to remove the mole of concern himself or he may be referring out to a plastic surgeon based on the location and the surgeon s preference. The patient voiced understanding. 3. Benign nevi on the back. These are all well marginated, homogenously pi gmented, symmetrical, benign appearing moles. We reviewed the ABCD s of melanoma, and a handout detailing this information was given to the patient.

With regard to the area on the left chest , this is a warty waxy stuck-on appearing papule consistent with seborrheic kera tosis. On the margin of the left lower eyelid, there is a 2-3 mm flesh colored papule that actually looks to be two 2 mm papules directly adjacent to each othe r, which when viewed under dermoscopy by Alan Rolfe look to be a possible benign eccrine hidrocystoma versus sebaceous hyperplasia, but cannot rule out in the d ifferential sebaceous carcinoma versus basal cell carcinoma. He would like to g ive the area approximately two months to see either one of the two growths conti nue to grow or become pinkish color in nature.

The patient tolerated the procedure well with minimal bleeding and br uising. Postprocedure care and expectations were discussed with the patient. S he understands. I have sent in request to do prior authorization for two 100 un its vials for the next appointment as the patient is getting slightly less than three months of sweat free time with the one 100 unit vial of Botox. The risks and benefits of treatment were discussed and consent for Botox was signed by the patient as well as myself. Risks of treatment include a vasovagal response, (i ncluding flushing, faint feeling, sweating and nausea/vomiting), brow droop or e yelid ptosis, headache and bruising. Corrective effects (decreased movement) ar e usually noticed 3 days after treatment. The full effect of treatment is seen at 1-3 weeks. The patient was instructed not to lay down or bend forward for pr olonged periods during the first few hours after treatment to avoid the risk of drug migration. A copy of the FDA Medication Guide regarding potential risks wa s provided. Specifically, the risks of potential severe neurologic effects were discussed. However, we stressed that these effects have not been reported with the appropriate dosing/administration of Cosmetic Botox or its use for hyperhid rosis. All questions were answered for the patient and consent for Botox form wa s signed. Follow up will be pending breakthrough sweating. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. OBJECTIVE: On exam, she is a well-developed well-nourished Caucasian female, in no apparent distress. I did have the patch test removed in office today by der matology assistant, Amanda Moore. I then let the patient sit on the exam table for a period of 10 minutes. The paneled areas were then re-marked and the templ ets were read with the following reagents having a 1+ reaction: Nickel sulphate (reagent #1), Caine mix (reagent #5), quarternium 15 (reagent #18), and tixocort ol 21-pivalate (reagent #28). Again all of these were 1+ reactions. This is a mild erythema with slight induration. No vesiculation present. I have advised the patient. She will be following up in approximately 24 hours with Lindsay Tu rner, PAC for her delayed patch test read. At that time, a treatment plan will be tailored to the patient based on these results and any results of the delayed hypersensitivity read. Follow up in 24 hours. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. SUBJECTIVE: Jordan presents to the office today for some _____ rash and peeling that he has had over the last three weeks. Of note, he did have a strep infect ion two months ago, strep throat.

He has als o had extremely dry skin for some amount of time treated very occasionally with topical steroids. Mostly, she uses Ivory soap for cleansing and they rub vitami n E capsules on the child as well as cocoa butter. She does not like to do the topical steroid as she is concerned about the side effects. She states that the eczema gets worse every spring going into the summer. OBJECTIVE: On exam, he is a well-developed well-nourished African-American male , in no apparent distress. I did examine today the scalp, face, neck, trunk, an d bilateral upper and lower extremities. On examination, the patient is extreme ly dry. He does have fine flaking throughout the trunk and bilateral upper and lower extremities with some ichthyosis present on the tibial aspect of the lower extremities bilaterally. He also has some perifollicular accentuation on the k nees and elbows consistent with the papular type atopic dermatitis or papular ty pe eczema and lichen nitidus. There is also some hyperpigmentation and lichenif ication present most notably in elbows and knees as well, also consistent with h is atopic dermatitis. ASSESSMENT/PLAN: Atopic dermatitis with generalized xerosis. I have advised th

e patient s mother to discontinue the Ivory soap as well as the vitamin E capsules and nut butters as the fragrance may be further exacerbating the problem. Addi tionally, she states she is using Tide detergent. I have advised her to switch to all free clear detergent. In place of the Ivory soap, I have given them samp les of the Dove for sensitive skin body wash and Cetaphil lotion and Cetaphil cl eansers. She may opt to use this or CeraVe for his wash over the next two weeks . Instead of vitamin E capsules and nut butters, I have advised her to try Ceta phil heavy cream. I have given her samples as well as coupons in office today. She may opt to mix this with the 50:50 mixture of Vaseline and apply to the chi ld at least two to four times daily. For the areas of dryness and desquamation and thickening present on the hands, elbows, and knees I am going to write her f or triamcinolone 0.1%. She may use this twice daily to these areas as needed fo r flares and I have advised children s Allegra for a non-drowsy daytime itch relie f and children's Benadryl at night. Follow up will be in approximately six week s. We will be most of the way through the summer at that time. I have advised the patient of course if he does not improve over the next week to two weeks signifi cantly, then I would like to see them back before the six-week followup. The pa tient and mother voiced understanding. Approximately 20 minutes was spent in of fice counseling both the patient and mother on the importance of short tepid sho wers or baths spaced out every couple of days if the patient is not dirty. We s witched to Tide and then we switched to Dove all that stuff and that was what 20 minutes was spent in office going over that and a detailed treatment plan writt en up for the patient and mother to refer to in the event they had questions. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. SUBJECTIVE: Elma presents today for rash on her arm she has had over the last f ew weeks.

OBJECTIVE: On exam, she is a well-developed, well-nourished Filipino-American f emale, in no apparent distress. I did examine today the scalp, face, neck, trun k, and bilateral upper extremities. On the sun exposed areas of the upper body, she has numerous light-tan, light-brown macules in various shapes and sizes con sistent with solar lentigo. On the mouth, she does have erythematous patch on t he mid upper cutaneous lip, which looks to be consistent with irritant or allerg ic contact dermatitis. Also, she has some spongiotic appearing nummular shaped patches on the dorsum of the forearms bilaterally what looks to be allergic cont act dermatitis in nature. It is somewhat photodistributed, which means that pol ymorphous light eruption cannot be excluded from the deferential; however, this does look to be more contact in nature and given her history of garden work and reactions to heavy fragrances, it further supports this suspicion. The patient uses Dove soap, Tide detergent, and Avon cocoa butter, and olive oil moisturizer s. She also uses aloe vera moisturizer as well. ASSESSMENT/PLAN: Dermatitis, not otherwise specified, likely allergic contact d ermatitis in nature and they are also on the differential must be an irritant co ntact dermatitis versus polymorphous light eruption versus possible drug eruptio n. For the mouth, I have given the patient ketoconazole cream, which I would li ke for her to use, applied to the affected perioral region q.a.m. and at night s he will do desonide cream to the perioral area. For the arms, I have given her Lotrisone cream, which I would like for her to use on the areas of the arms twic e daily and then I would like to see her back in approximately two weeks for fol lowup. I have given her 30 Atarax 25 mg tablet she may take one to two at night

p.r.n. itch. I have advised Allegra 180 mg tablet for a non-drowsy itch relief alternative during the day.

I have also given her some samples of the all free and clear to use in place of the Tide and she would like to purchase Tide free and clear as well. Approximat ely, 20 minutes were spent in the office with the patient today discussing atopi c skin care therapy. Personalized regimen was developed for the patient as well . We will follow up in two weeks. If no improvement is noted at that time, the n further diagnostic testing maybe warranted such as biopsy and/or patch test pl acement in the future. SUBJECTIVE: Kimberly presents to the office today for options for her hidradeni tis suppurativa. She had an excellent response to the Humira therapy and then h er insurance suddenly stopped approving it. At that time, she had gone into hav ing very painful recurrent flare ups of her hidradenitis suppurativa, most notab ly in the bilateral axillary vaults and the inframammary region. She has had nu merous treatments before and has responded well to doxycycline in the past. How ever, the patient is currently on dapsone and states she does not like it. She states she is getting pain along the right upper thigh even since she has been t aking it and wishes to discontinue it at this time for possible patient assistan ce program, which may or does offer to a selective group of patients. ASSESSMENT/PLAN: Hidradenitis suppurativa of the submammary skin and inguinal f olds have previous excellent response to Humira. The Abbott Assistance Program paperwork was filled out today in office by the patient and will be initiated by our dermatology assistant, Allie Bailey to see if shy may qualify for the Avent is Patient Assistance Program where she would receive the Humira at no charge. In the meantime, she is going to discontinue the Dapsone and the patient stated she would like to restart the doxycycline. She stated that she has been denied for the Doryx 150. I have advised the patient we can give the doxycycline 100 m g capsules twice daily. The patient is willing to do this and states no ill sid e effects after having taking doxycycline in the past. I have written her for a 90-day supply doxycycline 100 mg capsules to take one cap p.o. b.i.d.

On the external lab ia, she did have some inflammation in the form of mild erythema. She is looking to get her annual GYN exam on June 27th. She has currently been using Nystatin , but states that it is still somewhat inflamed. I have given the patient a 30 g tube of desonide cream to help with inflammation until she is able to meet up with her gynecologist on 06/27/12. She may use this twice daily over the next t wo weeks. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. ASSESSMENT/PLAN: Pityriasis alba.

However, diligent sunscreen use is indicated t o further prevent the non-lightened patches from becoming darker and accentuatin

g the pityriasis alba patches. The patient and mother voiced understanding. If it does become inflamed or symptomatic which the patient states it currently is not, she may opt to do a hydrocortisone 1% cream for a period of three to seven days to the area to see if that will help calm down the inflammation. Otherwis e, general skin care is indicated such as Cetaphil cream and/or CeraVe cream. I have given the patient some samples of over-the-counter sun block to include Ne utrogena SPF 50 and some Cetaphil lotion and CeraVe lotions.

ASSESSMENT/PLAN: Acne vulgaris with postinflammatory changes and both cystic an d inflammatory components as well as a comedonal component. I have stressed com pliance to the patient s in correct dosing of all medications. He states he will be taking the doxycycline twice daily and I have advised him this is going to be critical over the next two months to see if this will indeed calm down the post inflammatory erythema. If he is taking it as directed and he is not improving i n two to three months pending p.r.n. approval, we may opt to go to Accutane ther apy at that time. For now, he will continue on with his Neutrogena acne cleanse r for morning wash and I am increasing the strength of his retinoid today from E piduo to Tazorac 0.1% gel. He is to apply a pea size amount of this to the face starting on every other night titrating up to nightly as tolerated. He may use CeraVe PM and/or another oil free moisturizer afterwards to help with dryness a nd irritation this may cause. He states he is using Clearasil over-the-counter moisturizer with good results. I have advised him that he may continue on with this one if he so wishes. Follow up will be in two months. At that time, we wi ll reassess the correct doses of the doxycycline therapy and see if triple thera py would be enough to control his inflammatory acne. If not, we will move to Ac cutane therapy at that time. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. e:\medical transcription\pariser dermatology\samples\patricia jill lisinski, pac\patricia jill samples consolidated\06-14-12\061412 pjl-2.doc 7/28/2012 1:0 2:27 PM 89088 SUBJECTIVE: Pamela presents to the office today for a followup on her Botox as well as an established patient for total skin exam.

I have advised the patient this is secondary to cumulative sun exposure and they are benign as well. On examination and palpation of the right medial canthus today, no textural changes are noted. This appears to be s mooth in nature and looks like the removal of the actinic keratosis on biopsy wa s indeed curative. Robert J. Pariser has examined the patient with me in office today examining all areas mentioned above and states that none of them at this time need any type of treatment, nothing precancerous are cancerous is noted at today s visit.

She states she did take her to get her nails done and they did f ile them horizontally, which the patient s mother noticed when she removed the pol ish that she had gotten some textural changes on the nail. On examination today , it does look like there is no yellow discoloration present or hyperkeratotic b uildup, however, there is some evident trauma to the nailbed in the form of poss ible emery board. I have notified the patient s mother that the nailbed will need to grow out to determine how the nailbed is going to resolve after this trauma period, but I have advised no more trips to the nail salon until the bed has gro wn out and we can determine if there is any discoloration or secondary problems. If so, we will do a fungal culture later on down the line. At this time, I re commended she do her daughter s nails at home.

Pariser regarding this patient s pathology report. I am going to start him on a trial of minocycline 10 0 mg tablets to take one tablet by mouth twice daily, I have written him for 60 tablets with two refills. We will see if indeed two or three-month course of or al minocycline may be enough to suppress this into remission. I would like to s ee the patient back in approximately four weeks to see what his initial response is. I have discussed the side effects of minocycline therapy with the patient in office today to include photosensitivity, headache and stomach upset. If he experiences any of these, he is to discontinue the medication and call the offic e at once. The patient voiced understanding. Follow up will be in four weeks.

I have recommen ded a Dove clinical strength deodorant. In the morning, she may then apply a th in film of the clindamycin lotion to the armpits. I have written her a large bo ttle with one refill. I would also like for both the acne and hidradenitis supp urativa suppression to keep on the doxycycline 100 mg capsules. She may take on e tab p.o. q.d. as this is suppressing the hidradenitis nicely and will continue to be of benefit for acne since she has only been on it for the last two months or so.

We also talked about avoiding hot showers or baths and applying a thick emollient cream within three minutes of exiting the bath or shower while the skin is still damp. The patient denies any new foods and cannot remember a ny triggers on the 14 or 15 of June, which makes it even more likely that this i s indeed viral in nature and will burn itself off over the next few weeks or so. When putting the medicine on the hands, I have advised that something else wil l need to be in the child s mouth to occupy her sucking reflex and also mitts will need to be applied to the hands so that hand-mouth contact will be avoided.

For now, we will try Taclonex solution to the scalp once daily over the next three to four weeks. Additionally, she will use the Taclonex ointment to the areas on the trunk and arms. For the intertriginous region between the b reasts, I have given her a prescription for Mycolog-II, I would like for her to apply that once or twice daily over the next two to three weeks as well until cl ear. I have discussed with the patient that only biopsy is definitive. If she comes back for follow up and if she has not responded favorably to the Taclonex scalp and ointments, the patient states that she would like to defer biopsy unti l that time. For now, she is going to discontinue the Derma-Smoothe oil and dis continue the ketoconazole shampoo, as it is highly irritating and drying to her. Follow up in approximately three weeks. As this patient is a new patient, I w ould like for her to meet with one of our staff physicians. Follow up will be t hen in approximately three to four weeks with one of our staff physicians. Various options were discussed with the patient to include biopsying the scalp i n office today and treating with Taclonex. Following up in two weeks and then g oing over biopsy results versus treating with Taclonex anyway and to see if it i s steroid responsive and then meeting back up in two weeks and determining wheth er or not there is response to Taclonex and if there is biopsying at that time. The patient has chosen to treat with topicals foregoing biopsy until the two or three week followup.

He states he is unwilling to do light thera py due to the 66 mile drive now that he is over in the Suffolk area. He states he is unable to come in three times a week that it will interfere with his work schedule. He also states that he drinks three beers daily and does not intend t o quit making him an unlikely candidate for methotrexate therapy. I have asked the patient if he wish to initiate Humira therapy as the criteria now is that th e patient only need to be a candidate for light and methotrexate therapy, which he would be, given his scalp type involvement and resistant plaques on the arms and legs, despite use of the Taclonex use once daily. We will go ahead and init iate a prior authorization for Humira injectable therapy. I have advised the pa tient that once we hear back whether yes or no we will be in touch with him. Of note, the patient does state that he has a recent PPD on file, performed a coup le of months ago at his primary care doctor s office. I have had Allie Bailey der matology assistant here at Pariser call Dr. Joy Gianvittorio s office to have that faxed over to our office to have on file pending preauthorization. With regard s to medication reviewed, the patient is only on Uroxatral q.d. He has no know drug allergies. Because he does have arthritis involvement, scalp involvement, pitting nail changes, and is having failure with high strength topicals, I do fe el like it is time now to move on to injectable therapy. Education paperwork fo r Humira done today and followup will be pending his insurance decision of the H umira prior authorization. He also does have on the sun exposed areas of the fa ce, neck, and chest some light-tan and light-brown macules of various shapes and sizes consistent with solar lentigines. 2. Lentigo: The patient was reassured regarding the benign nature of these les ions. These lesions do, however, indicate diffuse sun damage.

She has finished a pproximately 12 UVB treatments and states no change in the amount or appearance of her psoriatic plaques. In fact, she states that she is now having some plaqu es on the arms and legs that are bleeding. The patient is continuing to do topi cal clobetasol therapy twice daily in addition to her UVB light treatments. She states she is worried that she is getting Cushing syndrome due to the fact that she has new onset vertigo with some blurry vision and noted fatigue and depress ion. The patient s history includes arthritis in both the feet and the lower extr emities bilaterally. She has pitting nail changes in both index fingers of the right and left hand. Involvement encompasses the following. On the scalp, ears , and nasal alae, she does have guttate two half-dollar sized plaques on the elb ows bilaterally, dime-sized to quarter-sized plaques with silvery scale. She ha s guttate-sized plaques present on the arm. On the legs, she does have approxim ately 8-9 quarter-sized plaques, some of which are larger in diameter.

There are some half-d ollar sized plaques apparent on the abdomen and back as well with silvery scale and involvement of the gluteal cleft. The patient drinks approximately 5-6 drin ks per week, therefore, she is not a viable candidate for methotrexate therapy. She has failed the UVB light treatment thus far. I would like to move to injec table approval as fast as possible given her joint pain symptoms and extensive i nverse and scalp involvement. We are going to reinitiate prior auth for Enbrel. If the Enbrel is not able to get approved, we will at that time consider initi ating a prior authorization for Humira. Other than the psoriatic plaques on exa m, she does have some scattered benign symmetrical-appearing nevi 2-3 mm in size , light brown and evenly pigmented on the bilateral upper and lower extremities and the trunk and neck region as well.

She is also noticing some what she believes to be side effects from extensive potent topical steroid use twice daily over the last yea r. I would like to move to injectable therapy as soon as possible given that sh e is a 5-6 drinks per week drinker, methotrexate is not an option at this time, move to prior auth of injectable biologic therapy Enbrel. If no luck with Enbre l, we will consider initiating prior auth for Humira. Follow up will be pending decision of her insurance.

y she presents today for a salicylic acid peel for her acne. Consent was signed and scanned into the patient correspondence file today. The patient denies any use of Retin-A over the last 48 hours. ASSESSMENT/PLAN: Salicylic acid peel for the patient s acne vulgaris with postinf lammatory hyperpigmentation. The skin was cleansed with CeraVe hydrating facial cleanser and then pat it dry. After that, it was defatted with a sterile alcoh ol swab. The 30% salicylic acid solution was then applied to the face and left on to sit approximately 2 minutes and 40 seconds, at which time the frosting occ urred. It was then neutralized with sterile water and Aveeno calming daily mois turizer was applied with SPF 30. The patient was advised not to use or exfoliat e over the next week or any toner to the area.

Allergic contact dermatitis likely secondary to chemical blocker ingredi ents. We are going to try physical blocker such as zinc oxide. I have given th e patient some suggestions of some zinc oxide physical blockers and discussed wi th her that she is to do a patch test on the inner arm and leave on for 48 hours to see if there is any type of reaction noted at that time. The difference bet ween chemical blockers and physical blockers was discussed with the patient in o ffice today. Should she continue to experience skin irritation with use of the physical blocker such as zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, then we will have her come back in for a possible patch testing in the future. A patch testing educat ional and informational brochure was given to the patient in the office today fo r her to read. 2. Scalp psoriasis with xerosis. The patient s refill for clobetasol was giv en at today s visit, a 100 g can, she is to apply this to the affected areas of th e scalp once nightly p.r.n. flares.

SUBJECTIVE: Michelle presents to the office today for followup of lesion of con cern on the posterior aspect of the right calf. The patient has a history of at ypical nevus removed on the right medial thigh. She is in today for her six-mon th total skin exam and also because she has noticed one of the ones we have watc hed on the right calf has grown on both sides and _____ per the patient. The pa tient does admit to tanning bed use more than 20 times in her life at age 18. S he denies any blistering sunburns as a child. OBJECTIVE: On exam, she is a well-developed, well-nourished Caucasian female, i n no apparent distress. On examination on the posterior aspect of the right cal f, there is a 7-mm medium brown macule well-circumscribed and evenly pigmented. Per the patient s history of atypical nevi and increase in size and darkening, I am going to remove today, ruling out atypical nevus versus dysplastic nevus. ASSESSMENT/PLAN: Neoplasm uncertain, rule out AN versus DN. After obtaining a written consent, the patient was prepped with alcohol. Buffered lidocaine with epinephrine 1% was administered for local anesthesia. The lesion was biopsied v

ia a shave technique using a Dermablade. Drysol was used for hemostasis. Polys porin ointment was applied to the wound and covered with a bandage. Wound care was reviewed.

The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. OBJECTIVE: On examination, she is a well-developed, well-nourished Caucasian fe male, in no apparent distress. I did examine both the face and the perirectal a rea today.

On examination of the perirectal region, there is a well-demarcated area of erythema. No inflammatory pustules are noted. It does not look to be infectious, but rather inflammatory. The area was examined by bo th myself and Dr. David Pariser today. He does believe that this is more consis tent with inflammatory process such as intertrigo. On perirectal region, _____ mons and labial region is spared of any inflammation. Again, this does not like to be infectious in nature. The patient was reassured of this. 1. Dermatitis, not otherwise specified of the face. I would like to treat initially for seborrhea over the next couple of weeks. I have given the patient 60-g tube of ketoconazole 2% cream.

He says that bothers him in appearance. He noticed no other sk in problems and states that they really do not itch. They are not symptomatic, but the barber when he had cut his hair rather short had notice that he had some inflammatory red papules located in the scalp region. He states that these are not present in the beard. The patient is not allergic to any medications. He is not on any daily medications. He does give a past history of seasonal allerg ies and is a nondrinker and nonsmoker. 1. Folliculitis of the scalp looks to be resolving in nature, nonsymptomati c to patient.

I did examine today the scalp, face, neck, trunk , and bilateral upper extremities at today s visit as well as the lower extremitie s bilaterally. On examination of the scalp, it is free and clear of any scale o r fine flaking. Face appears clear as well. The Promiseb and ciclopirox therap y for the seborrheic dermatitis are doing excellent job of controlling her sebor rheic dermatitis flares. Also, no inflammatory papules or pustules are seen tod ay on the face, except for a few areas of postinflammatory hyperpigmentation fro m older resolving lesions. On examination of the leg, she does have some postin flammatory hyperpigmentation as well from older resolving folliculitis. I have advised the patient that this may last for a period of weeks to months, but that does not look infectious at this point. The doxycycline that she had taken pre viously for this has done an excellent job of clearing up the folliculitis. 1. Dermatitis, not otherwise specified, likely allergic contact dermatitis reaction, secondary to nickel and/or other ingredients. The patient states she has used a new deodorant over the past week and attributes that to the axillary vault rash. I have advised her to go back to her regular deodorant where no jew elry in the interim and finish out her remaining five days of prednisone as we w ill need to have her wait at least two weeks before starting the patch test. Th e patient is scheduled to come in on August 13th for a patch test placement with acute read on 08/15/12 and delayed read on 08/17/12. I have advised the patien t on 08/17/12 will be the day where the treatment plan is tailored to whatever s he may or may not be reacting to it. We have discussed that there is nothing ad ditional I would do other than to encourage her to stay on the 24-hour systemic antihistamine therapy and finish out her five days of prednisone. The next step clearly is patch testing. 2. Acne vulgaris, doing excellent with clindamycin topically and Atralin ge l q.h.s. along with over-the-counter cleansers. Refills were written for all to day both clindamycin and Atralin. She is good to go on refills for the next six months or so and she may call in for up to a year s worth without having to come in for co-pay if the patient so desires. 3. Seborrheic dermatitis, doing well with Promiseb for the face and ciclopi rox shampoo. Refills were written for these as well up to six-month supply. Sh e may opt to do a year s worth of refills over the phone and is authorized for tha t if the patient so desires. Follow up will be on August 13th for a patch test placement. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. e:\medical transcription\pariser dermatology\samples\patricia jill lisinski, pac\samples\120723_004_hamilton, katherine l._072312.doc 7/27/2012 10:18:35 PM 39936 SOCIAL HISTORY: She gives no personal history of skin cancer. She does state t hat her maternal grandmother had a cousin who did have some type of skin cancer,

she is unsure of which type. She does have used a tanning bed approximately on e month out of her entire life. Concerns today include acne. She states she di scontinued the tretinoin and instead has gone to an Apricot scrub, she uses in t he morning. She uses an Aveeno SPF 15 daily moisturizer and continues to use th e CeraVe p.m. She states this maintains good control of her acne. She does not ice some blackheads in the armpits. She states she does try to pick at these. She does wax her armpits. She is wondering if there is any topical she might be able to try to help with improvement of this problem. Also, the patient states she had a rash on the hands and feet as well as having some systemic symptoms a couple of months ago. She states that they turned into red bumps and then star ted stages of desquamation, which she is still having some dryness issues. The patient s provider stated that was likely hand-foot-and-mouth disease and had trea ted it symptomatically as it is viral. The patient is wondering if the continue d desquamation is normal. 1. Xerosis of the hands and feet. A very minimal amount of desquamation is still present. It looks to be in the final stages of resolution. I have recom mended good emollient moisturization and if necessary some over-the-counter hydr ocortisone ointment can be applied twice daily as needed for symptomatic itching . I discussed the importance of using a very mild soap in the bath or shower su ch as Dove for sensitive skin, Cetaphil, or CeraVe. Showers should be with warm or cool water and limited to 5 to 10 minutes. After towel drying, the patient should apply a thick emollient cream when the skin is still damp. Cetaphil, Cre amy Vaseline, Eucerin, and CeraVe are good moisturizers to use. Another applica tion of moisturizer should be used during the day. 2. Benign nevi. All nevi are well marginated, homogenously pigmented, symm etrical, benign-appearing moles. We reviewed ABCDs of melanoma. The patient wi ll monitor moles for any change or growth. The patient understands if any of th ese lesions begin to change, they are to return to clinic for re-evaluation. 3. Acne vulgaris. Face under good control with the acne scrub and facial m oisturizers as needed.

Urine pregnancy for patient was done in office today by dermatology tech nician, Tabby Starkey showing negative. Additionally, I have given her labs to obtain serum hCG, fasting lipid panel, CBC, and CMP, which she will have perform ed at Sentara Norfolk Labs on Thursday prior to her four-week followup on Monday . Once labs have comeback and that the patient is seen in four weeks, I will go ahead and write her for Accutane 40 mg tablet one tab once daily for two weeks titrating up to one tab by mouth twice daily for two weeks for the initial first month s dose. I have advised the patient, she is going to need to do her best to remain compliant since this is going to be the third and final opportunity she has with this provider to make this happen. The patient voiced understanding. Follow up in four weeks. 3. With regards to the hyperhidrosis, the patient states that at this time it is not severe, but that it often times does get severe in certain situations. I advised the patient to try to be compliant on the Accutane and to see how mu ch improvement she can get on all of her sweating. At that point, if she comple

tes six months of Accutane therapy and still sweating, we can discuss systemic t reatment such as Robinul therapy at that time. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. e:\medical transcription\pariser dermatology\samples\patricia jill lisinski, pac\samples\120723_006_brisbin, ruth a._072312.doc 7/27/2012 10:18:33 PM 394 24 ASSESSMENT/PLAN: Dermatitis, not otherwise specified, consistent with granuloma annulare. The patient reports good response to clobetasol, but states she has not been using as of late because she was unsure how long of holiday to take for the medication. I have advised the patient that she may use it twice daily for a period of two weeks and if the areas have resolved to include the plaque-like appearance, flattening, and the erythema residing, the patient is then to stop the medication and to take a holiday until the next time she become symptomatic again. The patient finds she is unable to take a holiday for any significant am ount of time. I would like to see her back for further diagnostic testing. I d id inject intralesionally to test plaques to see if she can get any fasting resu lts, one was injected on the medial aspect of the right chin and two injection p oints approximately 0.3 cc of Kenalog 4 mg/cc was injected into this plaque unde r aseptic technique.

The patient has a past medical history of fibromyalgia, diverticulosis, allergi es, gastroesophageal reflux disease, and is having some menopausal symptoms. He r concerns begin with some itchiness and flaking on the face, but she states is

mainly in the brow and parinasal region. The patient does drink alcohol. The p atient does use tobacco also. OBJECTIVE: On examination today, she does have some fine flaking in this area, which looks to be consistent with seborrheic dermatitis. After examining the sc alp, face, and neck, I then examined the upper body to include the upper extremi ties bilaterally as well as the axillary vaults and palms, and dorsum of the han ds, fingers, and fingernails. On the right axillary vault, she does have a few areas of absence of pigment consistent with vitiligo. The patient then points t o her hands and feet. On the palmar surface bilaterally of the hands and the pl antar surface bilaterally of the feet, she does have some very mild xerosis pres ent. The patient states this has only occurred over the last month in earnest. She does give a history of dry skin since she can remember and does give a fami ly history of eczema as well. This does look indeed to be dyshidrotic in nature . There are some small vesiculations dry in nature present on the sides of the fingers as well as the toes, which leads me to believe this is likely dyshidroti c versus fungal, though no fungal culture has been done as of yet. 1. Seborrheic dermatitis. I have given the patient a prescription for keto conazole cream to be used by pea-sized amount to face and spread into thin film q.a.m. At night, she will do desonide lotion small pea-sized amount to face and spread into thin film in the p.m. For her vitiligo on the right axillary vault , I have given her samples of Protopic 0.01%, which she may apply twice daily. I have advised the patient this may be somewhat tingly on the first few applicat ions, she understands. I have advised the patient with regards to vitiligo, tho ugh this is an autoimmune process and the Protopic therapy may not help at all t o repayment; however, and something that I would like to try. Protopic is not c overed by insurance; therefore samples were given in the office today, which sho uld last over the next four to six weeks. 2. Dermatitis, not otherwise specified, favor the diagnosis of dyshidrotic eczema with generalized xerosis of the hands and feet. The patient was using mo metasone and states that she got a favorable response to this. On examination t oday, she looks great and I advised only some moisturization such as Cetaphil, R estoraDERM, and/or Vaseline petroleum jelly. Thus when she does get flares, I h ave written her for something slightly stronger than the mometasone, which is a 60-gram tube of Topicort 0.25% ointment. Again this is only twice daily, only a s needed, and only when symptomatic. The patient voiced understanding. Also a DTM was done to the left foot for comp leteness to rule out fungal. We will be following up with the patient in approx imately four to six weeks. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment. e:\medical transcription\pariser dermatology\samples\patricia jill lisinski, pac\samples\120723_012_joseph, francine e._072312.doc 7/27/2012 10:18:29 PM 47616 Francine presents to the office today for a patch test placement.

He will also be using over the next two weeks Elidel 1% cream, I have given him samples today in the office and a script for a 60-gram tube wi th a couple of refills. I have advised the patient this is unlikely covered on his insurance plan, but the patient states he insists that it is. I have given him samples just in case. For the pseudofolliculitis barbae with hyperpigmentat ion and xerosis, I have advised that the patient discontinue the baby oil and th e close shaves and try to attempt to let the hair grow out somewhat. For the bu rning and itching, I would like for the patient to do 24-hour antihistamine ther apy consisting of fexofenadine 180 mg tablet to be taken during the day for nondrowsy daytime itch, do no take with orange juice and at night.

I discussed the importance of using a very mild soap in the bath or shower such as Dove for sensitive skin, Cetaphil, or CeraVe. Showers should be with warm or cool water and limited to 5 to 10 min utes. After towel drying, the patient should apply a thick emollient cream when the skin is still damp.

The patient gives personal and family history of eczema and is being currently treated with triamcinolone cream to the area. The patient s father states he is getting the triamcinolone cr eam on once or twice a day daily usually after baths. He has a history of sensi tive skin and also takes loratadine for his allergies. Dr. Robert J. Pariser has examined this patient in office with me today. He agr ees with assessment. For treatment plan, we will do liquid nitrogen and cryothe rapy. This was done three short cycles to the area today. Postprocedural care and expectations were discussed with the patient s father as well as the patient h imself. Dante tolerated the procedure well. I have advised the father, he is g oing to need to start him more treatment therapy and this can take anywhere from 3-6 months for the wart to completely resolve and I have advised the patient an d father this maybe a slow going process. Both patient and father voiced unders tanding. Home wart treatment sheet was given to the patient in office today. W e discussed treating the warts by soaking the affected areas in warm water for 1 5 minutes and then using a pumice stone to help dbride some of the dead skin. Th e patient can then apply topical salicylic acid liquid to the warts, let dry and cover with duct tape. The duct tape can be removed the following day and the p rocedure repeated if necessary. If he wishes, he may followup in 4-6 weeks for another treatment of liquid nitrogen, otherwise followup will be open-ended. Fo r the generalized xerosis of body, which is noted on the arms and legs especiall y, but also was on the trunk, face and neck, I have advised good moisturization to include an emollient moisturizer such as Vaseline, petroleum jelly and/or Cer aVe or Cetaphil body creams to be applied in a 50/50 mixture to all areas of the body on a 3-4 times daily basis. Adherence to this maybe a challenge; however, I have advised the patient s father that this would definitely be in his best int erest for help with the dryness of the skin. Follow up open-ended. The patient understands and accepts the risks, benefits and alternatives associa ted with the treatment.
