In this episode of JCMS Author Interviews, Dr. Steve Feldman returns to discuss his three recent publications in the Nov/Dec 2025 issue of the Journal and what they reveal about modern dermatology practice.

The conversation moves beyond the research to explore bigger themes: how patients perceive care, why empathy matters more than efficiency, and whether technology—from dermatoscopes to AI—actually improves outcomes or simply reinforces trust.

Dr. Feldman also shares practical insights on patient behavior, telemedicine, and the surprising limits of large healthcare databases.

Dr. Steve Feldman is a professor of dermatology, pathology, and social sciences & health policy at the Wake Forest School of Medicine. He is a leading researcher in dermatology and directs the Center for Dermatology Research. His primary clinical focus is psoriasis, and his work has significantly shaped understanding of patient adherence, quality of life, and real-world treatment outcomes.
