In this episode, we talk with Caroline Chen, MD, a recently matched dermatology resident. Caroline is graduating from Columbia University Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons this May and successfully matched into dermatology at Columbia, along with a transitional year at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. Listen in as Caroline walks us through her journey to dermatology, how she got involved early on, and why she chose to apply without a research year. We also learn more about her experience with social media and how she balanced her interest in educational content creation with her medical career. We hope you enjoy!
