New Dermatology Elective Approved
UTMB Dermatology is now offering a new elective, “Dermatology Consults,” under the supervision of Dr. Brent Kelly (see http://ar.utmb.edu/04-05review/bdisplay.asp?rec=514 ). The elective is mainly concerned about skin disease diagnosis and management of hospitalized patients. Dr. Kelly is board certified in internal medicine, dermatology and dermatopathology, so he is very well qualified to teach this elective. This elective will not only be of interest to students interested in dermatology and pathology, but also should be helpful for students preparing for careers in internal medicine, pediatrics, family medicine, surgery, emergency medicine and hospitalists. Visiting medical students from other institutions are welcome to take this elective, especially because it is not frequently available elsewhere.
