Here at UNM we have great access to a wide variaty of diagnostic and treatment modalities such as confocal and many laser therapies. Everyone receives strong hands-on experience in procedural dermatology to treat the wide variety of clinical presentations our diverse patient population produces. New Mexico itself also presents many opportunities for various outdoor and city activities and hobbies with beautiful mountain and desert landscaps. There is always something new to explore, both in the wilderness as well as through the state's rich cultural heritage.
At UNM, the focus on clinical excellency is a guiding principle in clinic and didactics and is embodied by the faculty and residents. As the only academic center in all of New Mexico, our breadth of medical and surgical dermatology is extensive and the residents receive comprehensive training in all facets of dermatology. The collective enthusiasm for dermatology of my co-residents and faculty brightens every moment of my training.
UNM serves a large and diverse population. Classic cases as well as rare pathology is demonstrated daily, making the training very well rounded. Being a small program, we as residents get to know each other and get one-on-one time with the faculty who are extremely approachable and love to teach. Residents are supported financially in terms of textbooks and conference attendence. The didactics curriculum is designed to build on itself and is parallel to the dermpath curriculum, making it rigourous but very doable. Living is Albuquerque is amazing -- hiking, skiing, mountain biking, amazing food, low cost of living.
Our program really stands out for its mission to provide care to the vastly underserved and underrepresented populations of New Mexico. For this reason, we are exposed to a fascinating array of pathology, while also granted a great deal of autonomy in the general AND procedural clinics. I am lucky to spend my days with passionate, cooperative co-residents and train under accomplished attendings who are extremely approachable and eager to teach.
Our diverse and rural patient populations. Confocal microscopy training. We regularly see rare and complex medical derm cases on consult service. Small program with a lot of "front-line" learning and hands-on training.
