Dermatology - a compulsory part of the UK medical school curriculum? Med Educ Online. 2015;20:30212 Authors: Shah H, Pozo-Garcia L, Koulouroudias M Abstract Dermatological conditions form a significant number of consultations seen by general practitioners on a daily basis. There is a lack of training and formal assessment of dermatology during medical school and we propose that there should be a mandatory component in OSCEs for dermatology during medical school to enhance one's diagnostic and clinical reasoning skills which will ultimately lead to better care for the patient and efficacious use of NHS resources.
