Program Goals
The Department of Dermatology offers a four-year training program that fulfills the requirements of the American Board of Dermatology. Candidates apply for a four-year program to include a year of transitional GL-1 training. Exposure to dermatology is available to GL-1 residents, residents in internal medicine, senior medical residents and some paramedical personnel on a rotational basis.
Residents in dermatology may rotate on other services such as allergy and immunology, vascular medicine and hematology, depending on their specific interests. The entire range of dermatologic disease is represented. Diagnostic and therapeutic challenge is the rule, since most patients are referred for consultation either from other departments within Cleveland Clinic or from outside sources.
