Diversity in the dermatology workforce.

Diversity in the dermatology workforce. Semin Cutan Med Surg. 2016 Dec;36(4):242-245 Authors: Hinjosa JA, Pandya AG Abstract The United States is becoming increasingly diverse, and minorities are projected to represent the majority of our population in the near future. Unfortunately, health disparities still exist for these groups, and inequalities have also become evident in the field of dermatology. There is currently a lack of diversity within the dermatology workforce. Potential solutions to these health care disparities include increasing cultural competence for all physicians and improving diversity in the dermatology workforce.
