Student Rotation

Student

We love to meet students from other institutions, as you bring a different perspective and experience to our practice. We value students that have a passion for Dermatology, and we strive to train diverse leaders in dermatology who advance teledermatology through excellent patient care, innovative research endeavors, and commitment to life-long development for themselves and others.

We will be pleased to welcome medical students from MD or DO schools to rotate in our dermatology clinic. We have successfully hosted rotations offering total immersion in a fast-paced dermatology practice where medical students manage their own patient load with MD oversight. Students will be exposed to medical, pediatric, surgical, as well as cosmetic patients.
