Assessment of Dermatologists at Skin of Color Clinics
Abstract
As the US demographics change towards majority persons of color, only a small percentage of dermatologists specialize in skin of color. In the past 20 years, there has been growth in skin of color (SOC) specialty clinics. This study identifies characteristics that influence dermatologists' decision to focus on ethnic skin, by evaluating demographics, medical training and practice characteristics of dermatologists who primarily specialize in SOC.
