Dermatology Residency
Welcome to Our Program
The primary goal of the UMKC Dermatology Residency program is to provide excellent clinical training. Our residents receive a comprehensive educational experience in clinical dermatology, dermatopathology and dermatologic surgery. We also ensure protected time for our residents to read and participate in scholarly activities and didactics.
Residency Program Details
Overview and curriculum
Dermatology training at University Health provides a unique experience. It is one of the few dermatology residency programs in the U.S. that operates in a safety-net hospital. Our patients are racially diverse, medically complex and in need of help. The variety and complexity of conditions that our residents see and manage are immensely broad. We see all patients, regardless of income, insurance and legal status.
How to apply
We plan to participate in the 2025 match cycle, offering two positions starting in July 2026. We will be accepting applications through the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS). Please visit the ERAS website to begin your application. We look forward to hearing from you!
