Jennifer ChenJennifer Chen, UW Dermatology Research Fellow, shared findings from her recent study published last month in JAMA Dermatology with the UW Medicine Newsroom, in an article titled, “Who will you contact about that worrisome skin lesion?,” published Dec. 11, 2024. 

“A PCP [primary-care physician] might see a lesion and determine that it’s most likely benign—But doctors usually will consider two or three potential diagnoses, so even if the initial presentation leads a PCP to identify the lesion as benign, if there’s any uncertainty or the patient is worried, they also can easily refer the patient to a dermatologist or have an e-consult with a dermatologist.”
