Patient Instructions for

Washington university grand rounds

 

You are invited to attend Dermatology Grand Rounds
Time: 7:15 am – 8:30 am
Place: Wohl Clinic, 5th floor

 

Please park in the South Garage (Washington University/Barnes-Jewish Hospital Parking Lot). Bring your ticket with you. We will stamp it so that you do not have to pay for parking.

 

The format of Grand Rounds is that the physicians (usually 30-50 dermatologists, pathologists and students) will view you in your individual room. If your rash is in a covered area, you may either wear a bathing suit underneath your clothes or you will be asked to wear an examination gown.

Photographs will be taken of your rash to present at the conference. We try not to take photos which identify you, as your whole face. If you do not wish to have your photograph taken, please tell the doctor at that time. We also use these photos for teaching medical students and dermatology residents.

 

Directions

Park in the South Garage. Walk over the bridge into Barnes-Jewish Hospital and then proceed going straight past the fountain down a very long hall. At the end, turn right, and then right again. You will see elevators to the Wohl Clinic. Take the  elevators to the Medicine Clinic on the 5th floor. As you walk into the waiting room, you will see a number of dermatology residents waiting for you. Identify yourself as a patient, and they will put you in a room. They will take a short history from you to put on the door.

 

We hope this will be an interesting, informative and enjoyable situation for you. Although for some people it is a little overwhelming, it is a great way to see many doctors at once and have your case discussed by some of the greatest dermatologists in the country. Our job is to make you better if we can!
