Welcome!

Our faculty and staff at the University of Missouri's Department of Dermatology are dedicated to providing excellent dermatologic care for our patients, exceptional educational experiences for our residents and students, and the pursuit and expansion of our scholarly programs. Our daily working environment includes the University of Missouri Health Care Hospital and Clinics, the Harry S. Truman Memorial Veterans' Hospital, and Ellis Fischel Cancer Center. Our program is highly regarded for the "pro-resident and pro-patient" education we provide.

Our research program continues to grow and we are resuming our focus on public health and community service. With our fabulous new faculty, our departmental status, and our beautiful office space, the future is bright for MU Dermatology!
