dermatology?
Q. how long do i have to go to school for dermatology and what type of skills do i need? any math or science?
Asked by hurryburger - Mon Feb 19 12:13:53 2007 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments
A. You need to meet the minimum requirements for admission to medical school first. These include...Biology, Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physics, Calculus, and English. You can get these requirements met at most any college or university. After applying and being accepted to medical school you must then complete your first 4 years of medical training and internship and complete a 2 to 4 year residency in dermatology. In total it will take about 11 to 12 years of school after graduation from high school. Hope this helps...

How can I get started in learning about Dermatology?
Q. I am considering dermatology as a career, and I would like to learn as much as I can about it before I make any decisions. Any books, websites, or other helpful sources of knowledge will be appreciated. Thank you!
Asked by Madeline - Tue Nov 3 15:15:28 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Don't bother. What you'll need to learn is chemistry (general and organic), physics, biology, genetics and biochemistry. Why? Because if you want a dermatology residency spot, you're going to have to be at the very top of your med school class. You don't choose a specialty until you are finishing medical school. Besides, derm only has three rules: 1. If it's dry, make it wet. 2. If it's wet, make it dry. 3. When in doubt, use steroids. There, now you know all about dermatology :D For your entertainment, here is a site with more than 11,000 pictures of horrible skin lesions:

What should I major in and what classes should I take (in college and hs) for Dermatology?
Q. I'm really interested in dermatology, and I wanted to know what classes I should take in high school and college to help me and what I should major in for college. And for dermatology, you have to go to medical school, correct?
Asked by callie=] - Wed Jun 11 08:48:02 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments
A. HS - Maximize your math and science (take biology if available). The residency training for dermatologists is three to four years. The three year program must be preceded by a year of broad-based clinical training (PGY-1). Practice in a dermatology sub-specialty requires one additional year of training.

A. I'm not sure it's legal to get it anywhere but from a dermatologist. That's a doctor, who had to have gone to med school. Might have had to be board certified as a dermatologist. Not sure. I briefly looked at Botox's website, and from that, it seems to also suggest you have to get it from a doctor only. This isn't like dyeing your hair. This stuff is a milder version of the poison countries used to use as bio warfare to kill people.

How much does standard dermatology treatment cost?
Q. I have acne and I would like to do something about it, but I am away from my family so I have to do it myself, and I would also like to pay for it myself. I have about 800$ but by no means want to spend it all.
Asked by omikev - Wed Nov 12 00:20:46 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments
A. If you're referring to a consultation with a dermatologist, then that could cost anywhere between $150 and $250, depending on the part of the country you're in, how long the visit is, and the expense of the dermatologist you visit. This will only include the consultation and not include any treatments, prescribed medications, or products recommended for you. If you have insurance through your parents (or yourself), then this will be reduced dramatically to a small co-pay, but if not, then you will have to pay out-of-pocket.

A. A dermatologist is a doctor, so you will need 4 years of college, followed by 4 years of med school, followed by several years of internship and residency. You can probably get the undergraduate education you'll need at a number of schools in Indiana, including IU, Purdue, Notre Dame, DePauw, Earlham and maybe Butler. Wherever you go, you'll need a high GPA -- at least 3.6 -- to qualify for med school.

A. Both are doctors, just different specialties... Dermatopathology is a sub-specialty of pathology. Pathologists, as a general rule, spend most of their time in a lab...looking at specimens sent to them by other physicians. For example, a dermatologist will see patients that come to them at an office with a skin problem. Often, based on what the skin problem is, they will just treat the problem. Sometimes, when a diagnosis is in question (or the extent of disease is in question), a dermatologist will take a sample of skin from the patient (punch biopsy, shave biopsy, incision biopsy, etc). They put the skin into a container and send it to a lab. The dermatopathologist then obtains the container and examines the specimen carefully to… [cont.]
