“The complementary—and some would say—diametrically opposite—clinical methods of the dermatologist and the neurologist can in these circumstances reduce an otherwise dauntingly large differential into a more tractable, smaller list.”
In this episode of the Neurophilia Podcast, we discuss the fascinating relationship between Neurology and Dermatology, review the various pathologies shared between these two systems, and highlight the art of medicine between two specialists, Dr. Blake Buletko and Dr. Eliot Mostow.
Dr. Blake Buletko is a vascular neurologist at the Cleveland Clinic. He completed his residency and fellowship training at the Cleveland Clinic and was the former medical director of their mobile stroke program. In addition to his clinical responsibilities, Dr. Buletko serves as an Assistant Professor at the Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine of Case Western Reserve University and is the current Program Director of the Adult Neurology Residency program for the Cleveland Clinic.
Dr. Eliot Mostow is the Professor and Chair of the Dermatology Section at Northeast Ohio Medical University. He is the President of Akron Dermatology and has served the Akron Ohio community for nearly 30 years. He is extremely passionate about excellence in medical education, prevention of errors in medicine, and medical ethics.
