We are hiring a motivated clinical research fellow for an one-year paid fellowship with focus on direct patient care and clinical research. The clinical fellowship is part of the Bay Area Corpus Christi Medical Center - South Texas Dermatology Residency Program located in McAllen Texas. The clinical fellow will be exposed to medical dermatology, Mohs micrographic surgery, phototherapy, radiation oncology, and pediatric dermatology.

Position available starting July 1, 2018.

COMPLETION OF PGY-1 YEAR BY JULY 1, 2018 IS REQUIRED.

WE DO NOT SPONSOR VISA.


The program consists of one full year of training and mentoring. The Clinical Fellow will attend all the basic science and didactic lectures with the dermatology residents. In addition, the Fellow will also follow the attending physician for hospital consults and assist in Mohs Micrographic Surgery. There will be a Kodachrome session at the end of each day to review dermatologic cases. In addition, there will be dermatopathology training with board certified dermatopathologists.

South Texas Dermatology Residency is an accredited residency program with ACGME Intial Accreditation status. We accept both MDs and DOs into the residency program.

All the previous clinical dermatology fellows who completed the program have continued their training in a dermatology residency.

POTENTIAL CANDIDATES
  1. Licensed physicians who have finished an internship and are planning on going into a dermatology residency in the future.
  2. Primary care physicians who wish to have additional training in dermatology and skin procedures.
  3. Physicians who wish to provide dermatological care to an under-served patient population.
HOW TO APPLY
Interested applicants will need to furnish a CV. This can be emailed to dermresidency -at- gmail

If there is an interest and opening, we will contact you for the following information to complete the application
  1. Medical School Transcript
  2. Board Scores
  3. 3-4 Letters of Recommendations
Every year, there are 1-2 positions available, depending on the funding status.

SALARY AND BENEFITS
During the initial training period, there will be a stipend. After the initial training period, the salary and benefit package will be comparable to a license physician in a primary care specialty. The details of the salary and benefit package will be discussed at the time of interview.

COMPLETION
There will be no certification upon completion of this fellowship. However, the Clinical Fellows will learn valuable skills and knowledge for the rest of their professional lives. The training experience will also boost the qualification of dermatology residency application. A letter of reference for residency or job positions will be provided upon request for Clinical Fellows with good standing.
The completion of the Clinical Dermatology Fellowship will be looked upon favorably when applying to the South Texas Dermatology Residency Program.
