Perceptions and Experiences of Patients Across All Skin Tones Living with Psoriasis in Canada

Disparities in psoriasis care are evident across the experience of patients with psoriasis. Among those who participated in the survey, a greater proportion of the non-white patients faced delayed diagnosis, misdiagnosis, and greater barriers to treatment access, often reflecting more severe disease and unmet informational needs. These findings highlight the importance of culturally competent care and inclusive research to ensure equitable outcomes for all patients with psoriasis. Enhanced representation in clinical trials and targeted health interventions are essential to address these disparities.
