Lupus From The Physician Perspective, With Dr. Konstantinos Tselios

Our extra special guest today is Dr. Konstantinos Tselios. Not just a Rheumatologist and specialist when it comes to the diagnosis and treatment of Lupus patients, Dr. Tselios is also an Assistant Professor with the Division of Rheumatology, Department of Medicine, at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario.

Dr. Tselios joins us to talk about the medical journey a Lupus patient can go through, during and after diagnosis - but through the lens of the physician. We talk about everything from the the patient-doctor relationship, how much information a Rheumatologist may receive about a patient upon referral, the impact some medications can have over time, through to the areas Lupus research is focusing on today.

We also have a fascinating conversation about his most recent endeavour to uncover the mysteries of Lupus and improve both research and treatment - the creation of the Lupus Ontario Anne Matheson Biobank. Development of the Biobank is underway, it is designed to collect and store samples and be a central repository from which future research can be derived. The Biobank hopes to start receiving the first collection of samples in early 2022.

Join us on this exciting conversation where we get a feel for what the physician goes through along the Lupus journey with patients, as well as insights into the cutting edge of Lupus research!
