The Dermatology Residency Program of Loyola University Medical Center (LUMC) is accredited for a three-year dermatology residency by the Accreditation Council of Graduate Medical Education.  Loyola’s dermatology program is relatively young.  It began in the 1990’s when Loyola was partnered with University of Illinois at Chicago’s dermatology program and their residents rotated at Loyola and Hines VA.  Loyola then secured its own residency program in 2004.  Our first graduate was in 2007 and is currently on faculty.  We admit three residents per year for a total nine in the program.

The Dermatology clinical services are consolidated at Loyola’s LaGrange Park location in a state-of-the-art facility.  New renovations and equipment are in use to support Loyola’s mission of excellence in the provision of clinical care.
