Discovering Camp Discovery

In episode 25 of Cutaneous Miscellaneous, our host, Nicholas Brownstone, MD, chats with Charlie Dunn, MD, board-certified pediatrician and Chief Dermatology Resident at

KCU-GME Consortium / ADCS Orlando Dermatology Residency Program in Orlando, FL.

The episode begins with board review on epidermolysis bullosa (EB). Dr Brownstone briefly highlights board review pearls on transport media used in dermatopathology. Next, Dr Dunn

and Dr Brownstone discuss high-yield board review facts on the genetics, onset, diagnosis, morphology, associated clinical features, and prognosis of all the major subtypes of EB simplex,

junctional EB and dystrophic EB.

Dr Dunn and Dr Brownstone then discuss everything Camp Discovery. Dr Brownstone asks Dr Dunn about the history of Camp Discovery and which types of patients are eligible. Dr Dunn

discusses a typical day at Camp Discovery including which activities are available and the kinds of counselors who staff the camp. Finally, Dr Dunn provides detailed information on how to

refer a pediatric patient to the camp, which is completely free for the camper and their family!
