The dermatology department in the AMC has a lot of experience in treating patients with skin involvement in multisystem disease, for example sarcoidosis. The care for these patients is multidisciplinary. The involved dermatologists are Prof. dr. Menno de Rie and Dr. Markus Starink. Every week there is a multidisciplinary KIR meeting in the AMC (KIR meeting).

The skin is one of the most frequently involved organs in patients with sarcoidosis. Furthermore, the skin is frequently an easily accesible potential biopsy site.
Below you can find information on how to refer a patient to our center and the research we are conducting.
We are a tertiary referral center for patients with sarcoidosis. Care for patients with sarcoidosis is complex. Our opinion is that because the disease is relatively rare, care for these patients with severe manifestations of the disease should preferably be performed in a few specialized hospitals. We want to improve healthcare for these patients. Part of this is a specialist outpatient clinic for sarcoidosis patients with a multidisciplinary approach. Additionally, we have started various scientific research projects, aimed at improving the diagnostic process and treatment of this disease. Below you can find more information concerning the pulmonary medicine department, who we are, what kind of research we are conducting and how you can refer patients to us.
