A diverse medical workforce is important for patient care, and dermatology, as the second-least diverse medical specialty in the United States, needs to address this issue. Including more international medical graduates in residency programs can help improve diversity and eliminate disparities in dermatological care delivery.
A diverse medical workforce improves patient care. Dermatology is the second-least diverse medical specialty in the United States, and many recent publications have discussed the different reasons and possible solutions to improve this disparity. A quarter of physicians in the United States are inter-national medical graduates, which directly affects the cultural diversity in health care. Dermatology has the lowest percentage of international medical graduates in its active physician workforce. Among other measures, the inclusion of more international medical graduates in residency programs can help improve the diversity in this specialty and alleviate any disparities in dermatological care delivery in underserved communities.
