1st day at Cary Dermatology w/Dr. Mangelsdorf!

Some of the tools needed to get ready for a biopsy (collection of a skin sample sent off to lab to be analysed)!
Hannah and I @ Cary Dermatology!!!

Today I shadowed Dr. Mangelsdorf at Cary Dermatology. I was there with Hannah George and we worked through Dermatology modules Dr. Mangelsdorf helped us find from the American Association of Dermatology in between switching rotations of who would stand-in for each appointment. I got to see the differences between Cary Derm. and Southern Derm. such as procedural and some equipment differences. There was a nurse and a medical assistant which I met today, so that was consistent with the number of nurses/medical assistants I saw Tuesday! I also got to see a different type of machine used for cosmetics which is called Secret RF. This machine uses radio-frequency micro-needling to help tighten the skin. It was overall super nice to come to a different place today as well as have a partner to work with! In between the modules teaching us about different skin diseases and going in to see patients, I enjoyed spending the day with Dr. Mangelsdorf, Hannah, and the other staff!
