It’s true according to my male dermatologist, my female MD ex, my male PCP, and my male cardiologist in-law.



This isn't my opinion, my statement was based on the analysis of match score, Step 1, and step 2 CK scores.

Dermatology doesn’t seem like it would be a great specialty for telehealth.

Atlas baw seems a little sweet to me. He definitely is a little different than the average baw. But, I’ve gone to see him for a few things and he did good work.

Dermatology Associates in Lake Charles are all male and very good. Appointment every six months and have had several surgeries. All successful.

What You’ll Love About Dermatology

There’s a lot to love about dermatology, and it attracts a large number of medical students. It’s no surprise that it’s one of the most competitive specialties. In a recent Medscape Lifestyle, Happiness, & Burnout Report, dermatology ranked first in terms of happiness compared to other specialties.

Dermatology is a highly visual field with high clinic volume that’s relatively fast-paced compared to other specialties. It’s also a field that allows for both medical aspects and procedural aspects, which is appealing to someone who desires continuity with patients in addition to performing detail-oriented procedures.

You may not fully appreciate this now if you’re early on in your training, but dermatologists also spend less time than the average physician on paperwork and administration. That’s a huge deal.

And if you appreciate beauty in your work, in a visual way, cosmetic dermatology is an attractive option — no pun intended.

One of the strongest draws is the excellent lifestyle and work-life balance that isn’t afforded by most other disciplines within medicine. Given the outpatient nature, low acuity of medical conditions, limited call, and flexible workdays, dermatologists generally have more control over how they work.

It also doesn’t hurt that dermatologists are highly compensated, usually ranking in the top 5 highest paid specialties in medicine — on average over $400,000 per year.

And finally, dermatology is one of the most competitive specialties, so you’ll need to be willing to put in the time and effort to become a top student. That translates to more than just high board scores, but also playing the research game, being a leader, and acing your clinical rotations.


Yep, all those MDs are full of shite.

The one who surgically removed my dad's skin cancer is a male. Seems like a nice guy.

I never claimed they are full of shite, and I agree it is ONE of the more competitive specialties (Plastics, Cardiothoracic / Vascular are interchangablely at the top).

I was challenging your comment
