A Thank You and Notes from Dr Akhiya

Hey everyone!

Sorry I got kicked off of Zoom before saying goodbye! You all will do so well on your exam and this is my email if you ever have any questions: sakhiyat37@gmail.com. You can also DM me on Instagram if you’d like @SurfiaMD.

I wanted to follow up on the slide regarding hypocalcemia and impetigo herpetiformis. Indeed, there is an association between impetigo herpetiformis and hypocalcemia and low vitamin D levels. The mother can have cardiac and renal failure too. Shoutout to the brilliant resident who brought this up!

Here are my drug charts for your review too.


Best of luck!
