Collectively, they will then compare their independently derived themes, identifying themes of agreement and disagreement. Areas of disagreement will be further reviewed until a mutually agreed upon final set of themes is identified.

There have been no formal studies evaluating why patients seek medical care at SOC clinics or treatment outcomes. Reasons may include past experiences with other providers, the perception that providers working in these clinics have a special interest or knowledge in caring for patients with skin of color and thus may provide better care, the expectation of cultural sensitivity, the hope that their provider may have a similar ethnic background, and/or ease of communication with their provider. Through focus group discussions we aim to identify the factors influencing a patient's choice to seek medical care at a SOC clinic and to gain insight into the presence and impact of racial concordance between provider and patient. The current study will focus on self-identified African American patients with interest in conducting similar sessions with patients of other ethnicities and races in the future."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'African American patients evaluated at the Northwestern Center for Ethnic Skin', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Evaluated in the Northwestern Center for Ethnic Skin between February 1, 2015 and February 1, 2016.\n* Evaluated by Drs.
