Who T absolute F keeps deleting the conversation about Miami actively working against the future of our profession by creating an 'Advanced Practice Provider' Training program? This is the second time this topic has been brought up and deleted without explanation. Because of this, I'll make sure to relay this information aggressively on next year's thread for the next round of applicants. Oh yeah, and MCW and Case Western also have these programs in place.

< Somebody protect this cell< please! what is happening is an insult to our profession, our hard work and years of dedication and most importantly to patients, we need to unite as young physicians and put a stop to this nonsense! > honestly this is happening to most medicine specialities, think of anesthesia and CNA, not that its right but its happening all over

Mar 22

but it's ridiculous that derms are opening these things > I think they likely have no choice, its based on the institution and them finding ways to cut costs and dermatoligists having no choice but to train them. You would never see this in a private practice. Its like PA's and NP, now in some states NP's can practice medicine without any supervision of a physician. Its unfortunately how medicine overall is changing and physicians are always being punished. Physician salary is only 10% the cost of healthcare but of course we get blamed for everything.

Mar 22

Does anybody know of organizations that physicians can join to combat these issues? Or petitions to sign? > I think it can only be done via policy change via laws however that would take place in DC and phyicians having an MPH and knowing how and why this is done in the first place. You cant stop people from doing these things unless its made into law. A lot of issues in medicine and with physicians can be solved this way but someone has to be willing to devote their life to policy chage and there are far too little physicians willing to do this or are unable to.

Research fellows also have opportunities to attend dermatology clinics, resident didactics, Grand Rounds, and other dermatology conferences. Requirements: Fellows must have an MD degree from a US Medical School, have completed PGY1 prior to fellowship start date, and be eligible for Alabama medical license. Please direct all inquiries and CV to dermresearch@uabmc.edu

#4188Mar 22

why would any fellowship of this sort be for more than 1 year

Mar 22

finish intern year, start research, apply during 1st year of research, you match and don't start till following year, hence the second year in between your first year of research and first derm year. Personally I think people should try reapplying during intern year to cut down number of years off but thats me

Mar 22

do programs usually provide residents with free dermoscope? or do residents pay out of pocket for that?

#4187Mar 22

Varies, some provide a free one, some give you an "education stipend" that most spend on scopes, some don't at all
