Overview

Overview

The Department of Dermatology offers a one-year fellowship in Micrographic Surgery and Dermatology Oncology. Our department offers three fellowship positions each year through the San Francisco Match and is fully approved by the American College of Mohs Surgery (ACMS) and accredited by the American College of Graduate Medical Education (ACGME). The Fellowship is open to dermatologists who are either board eligible or certified by the American Board of Dermatology and the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons.

The goal of this fellowship is to thoroughly train the fellows in Mohs micrographic surgery and reconstruction, excisional surgery, nonsurgical treatments of skin cancer, and scar revision techniques. Education in cutaneous oncology includes multidisciplinary management of basal and squamous cell carcinomas as well as rarer tumors such as dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans, extramammary Paget's disease, microcystic adnexal carcinoma, mucinous carcinoma, sebaceous carcinoma, and pleomorphic dermal sarcomas, among others. There will be exposure to cosmetic dermatology procedures from our MSDO (Micrographic Surgery and Dermatologic Oncology) surgical faculty and our fellowship-trained cosmetic dermatologists. We have numerous lasers and energy-based devices primarily at our main campus facility with a few scattered in our satellite locations.
