Welcome to the Fourth Annual Hidradenitis Suppurativa Awareness Week Virtual Summit produced by The Association of Hidradenitis Suppurativa and Inflammatory Diseases (AHSID). THIS YEAR'S EVENT HAS BEEN SPONSORED BY THE UCB, HIDRAWEAR, 100-PAGE JOURNALS, DESIGNS BY MURIEL, BURT'S BEES, AND MY MAGIC HEALER. THANK YOU TO ALL OF OUR SPONSORS FOR MAKING THIS VIRTUAL EVENT HAPPEN.

The Hidradenitis Suppurativa Awareness Week Virtual Summit educates people living with hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), their caregivers, and stakeholders about disease treatment, wound care, alternative medicines, surgical options, and more.

In 2019, we noticed a gap in the HS community. Physicians, researchers, and dermatologists were being educated on HS while patients were left to figure out their complex diagnoses practically on their own. So, we stepped in to fill this gap with information from vetted and trusted specialists treating our community members.

We aim to ensure that our information is valuable, well-researched, and effective in assisting people living with HS on their healing and management journeys. Each session is led by industry, medical, or wellness professionals who are vetted, knowledgeable, revered, and trusted in the community.

The second day of the summit is led by Dr. Jennifer Hsiao with special guest patient advocate Mario Otero and moderated by the founder of AHSID, Jasmine IVANNA Espy.

Dermatologist and hs specialist, Dr. Jenny Hsiao, will lead this discussion, providing an in-depth overview of treatment options for hs. The session includes understanding biologics, hormonal therapies, oral medications, antibiotics, and the impact of patient participation in clinical trials.

Mario Otero will join this conversation from a patient perspective to talk about his experience participating in clinical trials and why it’s essential to do so for the advancement of the hs community.
