AiArthritis Voices 360 Talk Show
Education
Welcome to AiArthritis Voices 360. This episode join your host, Tiffany, as she and co-host Deb Constien discuss the challenges faced by patients who experience atypical disease presentations, especially the need to advance our understanding of this phenomenon because the typical is not so typical. This concept is vital for early detection and improving outcomes. They also explore the ways that a lack of commonality among disease presentation and progression impact advancements in treatment options.
