The Pediatric Dermatology Fellowship at NYU Grossman School of Medicine is a one-year program that has been approved by the American Board of Dermatology. Fellowship training includes participation in medical and procedural outpatient care in a variety of settings ranging from municipal hospital clinics to faculty practice offices; consultation activities in the emergency department, newborn nursery, Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU), and the pediatric floor; and inpatient pediatric dermatology admissions at Hassenfeld Children’s Hospital at NYU Langone and NYC Health + Hospitals/Bellevue.

Fellows also take part in clinics and multidisciplinary conferences dedicated to connective tissue disease. Through these experiences, fellows become experts in the diagnosis and management of the full spectrum of pediatric skin disease, from the rarest genodermatoses to the most severe cases of atopic dermatitis and psoriasis. You become proficient in general medical, developmental, and psychosocial, as well as dermatologic issues affecting neonates and children of all ages. In addition, you have time devoted to mentored clinical research and opportunities to teach dermatology and pediatric residents in a variety of venues.

The Pediatric Dermatology Fellowship is overseen by Seth J. Orlow, MD, PhD, chair of the Ronald O. Perelman Department of Dermatology, and Vikash S. Oza, MD, director of pediatric dermatology.
