Dermatology
The Division of Pediatric Dermatology is one of the largest, most diverse and best-recognized in the country and the world. Residents in the Department of Dermatology at the Feinberg School of Medicine, through our partnership with Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago, have the opportunity to care for children with a wide variety of skin conditions and learn from the esteemed faculty in the division. The division runs the very well-regarded fellowship program in Pediatric Dermatology, accepting two fellows and two visiting scholars each year.
