If it's wet, keep it dry.

If it's not supposed to be there, cut it off.

Nurses could do it. :wink:

yeah - tell me about the dumbing down of the health service - nurses replacing doctors as specialist nurses, health care helpers or practitioners taking over nurses, taxi drivers becoming paramedics :mad:

Someone who actually WANTS to be a dermatologist at our age? (I realise the speciality does have things going for it)

I was thinking about it a while back, it's still somewhere in the back of my mind as something I want to specialise in when I eventually get into medicine. I think it's mainly because a friend's mother is a dermatologist and when I got experience with her, I really enjoyed it. Well, part of it anyway.

Yeah I suppose it's easy to think meh, when I actually have no idea what it really entails.

Original post by Tabris

hi Tabris! im interested in becoming a dermatologist when Im older and Im looking into what you actually do. You mentioned how you had experience with your firend's mom and I was wondering how you found it and what you did. you also said that you only enjoyed parts of it and was wondering what you meant by that. if you still do anything that relates to dermatology please tell me how you found it and how it is going. I am looking for work experience placements as part of our year 10 scheme but want to know any extra information. Thank you Princess :smile:
