The Royal Melbourne hospital is now offering a combined rotation for interns - melanoma and plastic surgery. Sounds like a great idea for anyone interested in dermatology... I wonder if any other hospitals have something similar interns can do?
My Medical Career Dermatology Community
What's happening in the Dermatology community?
Hi MMC community members!
I thought I would let you know that I will be heading along to the Victorian Medical Careers Expo on Saturday May 31st, so collect all your burning questions about dermatology training and come and say hi!
I need to arrange a dermatologist for a health fair and hope that you may be able to help me or locate/refer someone that may be able to assist.
Location: Southbank VIC
Date: Wednesday May 7th 2008
Time: 9am-12pm
Pay: Dermatologist is $150/hour
The role will be to provide skin type and analysis. This is a new
service that Fitness2live is offering. Ideally, we are looking for a
dermatologist who can analyse the skin and give advice concerning skin
health and appropriate skin care regime and skin products. However, the
position is flexible and we are open to suggestions.
The health fair is a casual environment in which employees are able to
walk around and talk to various health care professionals. You will be
required to conduct a brief 10-15 minute consultation to staff members.
No appointments will be made, it is a first in, first served format.
Other services being offered to participants will include optometry,
blood cholesterol testing, massage therapy and bone density testing.
I hope this position is of interest to you or someone you know and I look
forward to your response.
Regards,
Jodie Taranto

Good luck :)
I am guessing most of your are familiar with the online dermatology resurce, Dermnet. If not, you should check it out. You can carry Dermnet's extensive information about skin diseases and treatment on your PDA for info on-the-go. You will need iSilo reader for your PDA, and iSiloX to convert the website content so you can read it using iSilo!
Enjoy!
