Not interested in derm so I can't comment on how they compare with MD derm programs.
They are open to DO's only.
They are highly competitive (from what I understand) but they can be attained. A friend of mine from AZCOM attained a position recently. He did a ton of osteopathic derm rotations, got his name out there, got letters from people who count, and did research.

Yes. I believe the residency is in Palm Beach Florida if that helps in your search for places.

Anyone know if DOs who complete osteopathic dermatology residencies practice dermatology differently compared to DOs/MDs who complete allopathic dermatology residencies?
If you apply to osteopathic residencies, you must do so during your internship year (at least). I did 2 yrs of IM (after AZCOM)before starting my residency this year. Since you apply the year before residency, you cannot even apply during MS4. I know there are a few people interested in Derm from your class but I would question anyone who claims they have gotten a position. See the following forum for any ?s.

It is indeed a linked internship/residency. I think there are 2 linked derm osteo programs, and that young man nailed one of them.
Its legit, 2 legit to quit.
The osteopathic dermatologist that I met was incredibly smart and knew his medicine extremely well. As far as I can tell there is no discernable difference in the way the 2 degrees differ in diagnosing and treating dermatologic conditions.

He's going to be a GAS passer, not a derm dude.
