![DAY IN THE LIFE OF A DOCTOR: Rheumatology Respirology Combined Clinic
Join me in a day in the life of a doctor! Iβm a 4th year rheumatology resident doctor and this morning Iβm bringing you to an exciting rheumatology-respirology combined clinic. This is a highly specialized clinic where patients with rheumatologic (autoimmune) conditions affecting their lungs are assessed by a rheumatologist and respirologist at the same time, to streamline their care. You will learn about patients with shrinking lung syndrome from lupus, rheumatoid arthritis with interstitial lung disease, and lots more!. Then in the afternoon weβre doing a virtual clinic from home - a type of clinic created during the COVID-19 pandemic!
Thank you to Dr. Khalidi and Dr. Cox for their collaboration on this video!
