Trainee presenter is Michalla Braford, DO, PGY3 in Psychiatry, Lewis Gale Medical Center, Salem, and discussant is Claire Brandon, MD, founder and medical director of Whole Body Psychiatry in New York City.
Dr. Braford will present a clinical case that illuminates the risks of using exogenous thyroid hormone for wellness purposes and how this can translate to psychiatric symptoms.
Dr. Brandon will provide clinically relevant dialogue surrounding the risks of exogenous thyroid use and relevant laboratory and clinical findings in a provoked hyperthyroidism case.
The presentation and facilitated discussion will be followed by a live audience Q&A.
The session provides trainees with an opportunity to learn about C-L Psychiatry and augment C-L education at their institutions. Attendees will learn how to succinctly present a case, observe C-L psychiatrists work through diagnostic challenges, and appreciate management dilemmas that arise in C-L Psychiatry.
The Academy of Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry is a professional organization of physicians who provide psychiatric care to people with coexisting psychiatric and medical illnesses, both in hospitals and in primary care. Our specialty is called consultation-liaison psychiatry because we consult with patients and liaise with their other clinicians about their care.
With nearly 2,000 members, the Academy is the voice of consultation-liaison psychiatry in the US with international reach.
Please browse our website, read our journal, Psychosomatics, and come to our annual meeting which is in November each year. In 2020 it will be a virtual event – see www.CLP2020.org for more details.
