Doucet was a good entertainer. Wait times influenced by bored old ladies wanting attention? I haven't had a wart in 2 decades and he was old and grey when he froze it way back. Doesn't seem like a complicated gig.

I had a friend that was one in California.
We would fish for Tuna offshore and fish the California Delta.

He died of skin cancer back in 2010.

I think he's retired now, but the GOAT is Juilliard-trained dermatologist Dr. Martin van Nostrand.

A lot of them are hot or formerly hot women.

Makes you wonder how they got into such a competitive residency.

Why does it matter would you prefer a man to look at your naked body?

Massengale was mine, that was until he misdiagnosed a lesion, a week later it was worse. Went to another doc, he said the I had prescriptions were worse than useless. I ended up with 3 months of wound care before it healed. Thanks doc.

Dermatology usually goes to the top of the class in Medical School


----Which is incorrect with data to support this statement.


Sure, if you're trying to be a message board lawyer and nitpick semantics. I didn't mean the "top of the class" as in "only the #1 graduate gets Dermatology, nobody else, and they always select Dermatology."

The coveted specialties, of which Dermatology is one, tend to go to the people who get their first choice in specialties. Being in the top of the class helps with that.

Factor in that males gravitate heavily toward some specialties and females toward others (Derm being one), and you get more female Dermatologists than male Dermatologists.

The one I go see when I need it is male. Dr. John Brantley in BR. Played on the LSU basketball team with Pete Maravich. He’s been around for a long time.
